Like I said in another post, God will have to sort this mess out.
But there is no way in Hell that this man is Catholic let alone the pope. It is the only thing that makes sense at this point.
And I get that makes me the black sheep here....whatev.
So where does that leave us? If we Catholics have been gathered around an empty chair for years, that would indicate that the visible Church has vanished. Where is it hiding? How will we find it again? Who will determine its legitimacy? This isn't consistent with Holy Scripture. God didn't abandon his people when they worshipped the golden calf, so why would he abandon his Church which continues to pray to Him (albeit with stripped and adulterated prayers)? And where is it written that the Church would never have a stupid, faithless, evil or even heretical pope? The Pope is the visible head, but infallible only when speaking ex cathedra. The Holy Spirit protects the Church from formalizing error (e.g. Vatican II, pastoral council only). That Francis is behaving destructively is blindingly obvious to those who rationally examine the facts, but there have been bad popes before, and the Church has survived.

Why should it? It's not like your posts (and your screen name) haven't already made your opinions clear anyway. :)
