Given non-Catholics dont believe in popes, why would this be surprising to you?Not surprising, but interesting...
Given that the concept of "Divine Law" is a revelation (protestant term) as defined by Catholics, revelation should be based on and inspired by Holy Scripture...
As far as I can tell the sole requirement to be leader in a body of christian believers is to be a Christian first...not a Roman Catholic... (Not completely sure Pope Frankie can pass that test) ..
There is nothing in Scripture that makes non Catholic believers apostate, heretics and schismatics...
That's strictly is man's tradition... not revelation, thus not Divine Law...

Otherwise why not elect the Dalai Lama and claim he can still be the pope!?Well, for starters he isn't a believer in Christ...

True. Obviously I was trying to make a point. Non-Catholics still aren’t....Catholic. Francis isn’t supposed to be leading the Lutheran churches.

I’m not willing to get into a Protestant vs Catholic “debate”. If someone else wishes to get into it with you, they can. I don’t.

Im not willing to get into a Protestant vs Catholic debate. Good...I don't want to either..
Nobody will ever convince me that the Roman Catholic Church is the only one true Church and as I have been told before, (not by you) that I am a heretic and hellbound for not believing such...
On the other hand, who I am to say what or what not the the Roman Catholic Church is...
As far as I am concerned, if you believe and are called by HIS name we are brothers in Christ..
End of story...It's that simple...

Heretics and schismatics are barred from the Supreme Pontificate by the Divine Law itself,Thank GOD!
Rome might produce some REAL weirdos otherwise!!
Pope Stephen VI (896897), who had his predecessor Pope Formosus exhumed, tried, de-fingered, briefly reburied, and thrown in the Tiber.[1]
Pope John XII (955964), who gave land to a mistress, murdered several people, and was killed by a man who caught him in bed with his wife.
Pope Benedict IX (10321044, 1045, 10471048), who "sold" the Papacy
Pope Boniface VIII (12941303), who is lampooned in Dante's Divine Comedy
Pope Urban VI (13781389), who complained that he did not hear enough screaming when Cardinals who had conspired against him were tortured.[2]
Pope Alexander VI (14921503), a Borgia, who was guilty of nepotism and whose unattended corpse swelled until it could barely fit in a coffin.[3]
Pope Leo X (15131521), a spendthrift member of the Medici family who once spent 1/7 of his predecessors' reserves on a single ceremony[4]
Pope Clement VII (15231534), also a Medici, whose power-politicking with France, Spain, and Germany got Rome sacked.

Given non-Catholics dont believe in popes, why would this be surprising to you? Given Catholics didnt manage to have any 'scripture' about popes to place into the Book it compiled; why would this be surprising to you?

Knowing this is what non-Catholics believe is why I said that. As I said up-thread, not interested in going down the “debate” path. That horse has been beaten to death on FR a long time ago.

Not sure I understand. To me, “heretic whatever” is a whole other animal than just “bad”.

You don't have to like it, don't have to agree with it, but the Pope is the titular head of Christianity, in all of its forms.
We pray that our separated brethren will someday return to the fold (they will)and once again, as it was for 1,600 years, there will be a One, Holy, Catholic, and Apostolic church composed of ALL Christians.....worked good for 1,600 years, can work good for another ?????????zillion years.

Colossians 1:18 ... Christ is also the head of the church, which is his body.
1 Corinthians 11:3 But I want you to realize that the head of every man is Christ, and the head of the woman is man,
Your pope (which most FR Catholics do NOT appear to like one bit) is a mere toenail, or armpit hair in the Body of Christ!!

Don't you READ your own BOOK?
I suppose you think your Catholic churches mentioned by the angel to John were working good? [Revelation chapters 1-3]
Amazing the lack of knowledge you exhibit.

When you separated CATHOLICS can finally get YOUR act together; come see us poor, deluded Prots and work your magic on us.
