Can Popes be impeached?

No. They cannot be impeached. It is a lifetime appointment, and there is no procedure to impeach the pope.

We can, however, hope and pray he follows in his predecessor’s footsteps and retires early.

I imagine over the years, some of them that died in their sleep might have had a little help.

There have been a number of attempts to do so historically. Usually winds up with the election of an antipope and a schism, which sometimes lasts decades.

Usually more effective to just kill him.

IIRC, they can be forcibly abducted and locked up somewhere, and an anti-pope put on the throne.

No. Because the Catholic Church declared that popes are infallible.

The pope is a Marxist

The pope is infallible.

Therefore Marxism is infallible.

Got it?
