Even if all their assumptions were correct it would not make the office of the Pope any less. Like some Popes in the past who didn’t always behave in a Christian manner. God WILL NOT allow him (Pope) to mess up HIS Church. For he promised that “the gates of Hell shall not prevail”. Although I will add that the Holy Spirit did a wonderful job of keeping our Popes out of trouble. Out of 265 Popes only 3 (don’t quote me on this number. But somewhere around there) went down in history as being “bad Popes”. Not bad if you ask me. But even those 3 Popes did not change a thing on Catholic doctrine. They were too busy sinning….. :rolleyes:
