No, you must, of course, believe in Christ as Savior to get to heaven. The pope can guarantee NOTHING!

Of course not, the Pope can't guarantee someone a place in Heaven. The only way to get to Heaven is to be born again by the Holy Spirit who is given to those who put their faith in Christ Jesus.
"But God, being rich in mercy, because of the great love with which he loved us, even when we were dead in our trespasses, made us alive together with Christ--by grace you have been saved-- and raised us up with him and seated us with him in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus, so that in the coming ages he might show the immeasurable riches of his grace in kindness toward us in Christ Jesus. For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast. Ephesians 2:4-9
I don't want to set myself up as a judge of the Pope, that's for Jesus to do. But I will say that any religious leader who claims that someone can get to Heaven by their good deeds is preaching a different gospel than that taught in the Bible. Paul wrote this about the Judaisers who were trying to teach the churches in Galatia that salvation came from works and not grace.
Galatians 1:6 I am astonished that you are so quickly deserting him who called you in the grace of Christ and are turning to a different gospel-- 7 not that there is another one, but there are some who trouble you and want to distort the gospel of Christ. 8 But even if we or an angel from heaven should preach to you a gospel contrary to the one we preached to you, let him be accursed. 9 As we have said before, so now I say again: If anyone is preaching to you a gospel contrary to the one you received, let him be accursed.

The Pope and his court, were corrupted beyond belief. A man of God forgive, not swing a blade because of a difference. Early catholic offices were considered political offices and were bought and sold to the highest bidder. Now, things have changed, but when we discuss the deaths caused by believers on unbelievers....we need to see who was in charge and why. Many wrongfully slaughtered souls will be in heaven

The Pope was a liar then just like he's a liar now. If the "Crusaders" got to Heaven, it had nothing to do with the Pope. The Pope was worse than a common criminal, not to mention a murderer.

The Pope is only infallible in matters of Faith and Morals. If he promised heaven for murder without trusting in Jesus, that's a whole bunch of suckers that got a major disappointment.

Absolutely not. You must of course believe first that the Pope represents God and so do his followers. I don't.

Do the muslim suicide bombers get their virgins in eternal life?
Of course not!
Religion exists to manipulate the gullible.
If God exists the Christians distorted the religion to their own ends years ago and are becoming even more extreme.
