Do you have to bow and kiss the pope's hand or is it just a custom/tradition or is it only in movies?

Also can regular people talk to the pope.

Like can they set an appointment with the pope.

    You don't have to bow and kiss his ring. Catholics typically do that, but youll notice none Catholics who meet the Pope don't except Eastern Orthodox, Oriental Orthodox, Nestorian and high Anglicans.

    That's the commonly accepted practice of showing submission to His reign -- but I believe nearly every Protestant Reformer who identified the papacy as the office of anti-Christ. They fulfill every Bible definition. He sits in the church (temple) of God claiming to be God on earth (II Thessalonians 2:4). But that's even if you're ever allowed to get that close to him.
