He can believe that Obama should do that, but what he can't do is make that a sound move on Obama's part, or give Obama any reason to feel compelled to noodle in Vatican business with such a statement.

Although having to deal with a person in authority who you have strong reason to believe is an idiot is a very useful life skill.

i.e. TO LIE IS TOO SIN, lieing is sinning. The Pope said that he is not a heretic, but he is still a lyer. Turns out the Pope chose the proper name, Benedict.

That doesn't make him a liar. It may (and I believe it does) make him a moron, and unfit to be a representative of the church though.
I think your teachers point was that there was no legal reason why Obama couldn't make such a statement, and he is correct.
That doesn't mean that making a comment like that would be a good idea, even if everything said in it was completely true.
