he’s not being a dummy here, though: lifesite has been promoting the idea that Francis was never actually Catholic, and so was not validly elected pope.
in 2013 you’d be seen as insane if you made that argument, but they want to be ready for the next papal election.
Catholic ecclesiology has become so confusing: I guess it turns out the auxiliary of Kazakhstan and the emeritus of Tyler, Texas now get to judge the orthodoxy of the occupant of the First See, and have a veto on his election. 😭
