Catholicism has a real problem, a number of people, including some Catholics, are not even sure this Pope is not a fake Pope.
Is the Pope Catholic? used to be used as a rhetorical, of course.
It’s not rhetorical anymore.
Is the Pope Catholic?

come on, if he was elected by the college of Cardinals, then he is the Pope....The Catholic church has gone through a lot of Popes, some better than others, but ALL have fulfilled their obligation to NEVER challenge the dogmas of the church. Infallibility was ordained by Christ, and so far it has worked just fine!!!

Popes come and go, some good, some bad, some great. The Catholic Church has endured for 2,000 years. God promised the gates of hell would not destroy His Church. The fullness of the faith rests in the One, Holy, Apostolic Church, and that Church is the Catholic Church.
