There have been plenty of bad Popes over the centuries.

Alexander VI was Pope from 1492 to 1503. He is the most controversial of the secular popes of the Renaissance, and his surname (Italianized as Borgia) became a byword for the debased standards of the papacy of that era.Originally Cardinal Borgia from Spain, Pope Alexander’s claims to fame were taking over much of Italy by force with the help of his son Cesare (yes, his son), a racy relationship with his daughter Lucrezia (some say her son was his), and his affinity for throwing large parties, bordering on orgies, that usually culminated with little naked boys jumping out of large cakes...
Who's YOUR favorite?

Perhaps he’s allowing ourselves to teach ourselves a lesson.

This article makes a “basic assumption” that Catholicism is “The Only True Church” and by extension, the rest of us who belong to some other denomination have yet to discover this “fact.” So I am left wondering just where “Papal Infallibility” sits today with this guy who’s posing as Pope while failing to espouse Church Doctrine in so many ways.

God has permitted a lot more horrific things than a bad pope.

God allows evil, why should popes be exempt?

Sure He can!
Bad Popes have worked their evil deeds & desires only to fall right into His stated plans.
He’ll use the last pope to fulfill all sorts of Prophecies - and it will be done all according to His plan.

we have free will...God does not interfere with our bad choices....but picking a pope is not a choice Catholics have made...the inner sanctum of cardinals choose him and who knows what evil lurks there..

I happen to be a Jew, but I also believe that the Catholic church is the only church of Jesus of Nazareth.
Also, I believe that Satan (in his guises and names) exists and he is focused like a laser on destroying Jesus’ church.
It is harder for the Devil to get to us because we do not worship graven images but he sure nails some of us, usually under the red flag.
