“You are wrong.”

No, as usual, I am correct.

“The Catholic Church had three competing popes at one time.”

Nope. The Catholic Church had ONE pope. There were two other men CLAIMING to be pope. A few years ago there were at least seven or eight men claiming to be pope.

“But It recovered.”

I wish I could say the same for your knowledge. Anyone who says he’s Catholic and then says something as ridiculously impossible as “The Catholic Church had three competing popes at one time” needs to recover his wits. Once again we see you have a shoddy understanding of what the Church actually teaches.

Do you enjoy embarrassing yourself?

1378 The Great Papal Schism

Quoting wiki as a legit source is a juvenile move to defend any position from a Catholic point of view.

And now the Church has two living popes, both who still dress in white and retain their papal names.

Are you in the Francis schism with Francis, the material and formal heretic?
