[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think PP gave the answer — there would be a schism with some percentage of the church declaring the pope a heretic and picking a new guy for themselves.  I would actually be really curious to see how that would break down.  I was a devout Catholic for the first 45 years of my life but I just feel like the Church is so moribund that I cannot find any inspiration or grace in it at the moment.

I’m also a bit curious whether Pp that posted on doctrine is the SSPX poster that pops up everytime there’s a Catholic thread.  He has strong views.[/quote]

We essentially have a schism in the Anglican community in the US now. If you want to know more, look at the litigation that resulted in The Falls Church Episcopal and The Falls Church Anglican and their separate communities. Litigation over the historic property went all the way up to the Supreme Court -- it was over the ordination of a gay bishop in the Episcopal Church.

It would be more of a catastrophic earthquake in the RC church if a pope were to 'go rogue" like this, though.[/quote]
