The False Prophet

Where in the world did you ever get the idea, the Pope or the Papal office had a "prophetic" nature to it?

Never has it been suggested by the Church that any Pope-or his duties -are to be considered prophetic.

That's a heretical idea, and one the Church has never taught. Your claim is incorrect.

The fundamental role of the Chair of Peter is to maintain and ensure unity of the Church down through the centuries as it has to this day. The Pope fulfills this role by enforcing its teachings and to assist Religious and Laity in witnessing to the Faith of Christ Resurrected.

It is because of this Pope's poor performance of these responsibilities as Pontiff, he is failing, and so criticized.
It has NOTHING to do with supposed "prophesy" that you are falsely attributing to the Papal office - or are laying in wait for.
The Pope is not a prophet.
Ain't his job.
