Yes, but he is the FORMER nuncio, and also the Pope has stacked the college of Cardinals with extreme liberals.

Yes, and yes. "...the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.", however.

Yet another sexual predator priest that the RCC protected, moved around, and covered up until they could not do it any longer:  https://www.ksat.com/news/local/2023/09/26/catholic-priest-in-san-antonio-arrested-on-allegations-of-sexually-assaulting-woman-in-her-70s/

This is really worrying.

Coming of a second schism ?

That would suck, but still there are worse outcomes, like the one described in the Book of Revelation.

With the top guy clearly recognized by many to be wrong and corrupt, it makes more sense how the catholic church's relatively recent apparant untraditional activities could come about.

In China, for instance.

The Pope really is trying to kill the church.  But then again, it has been dead for a while, and just has not realized it.

If they are human, then they could be baptized. Nothing new here.

Problem is that Strickland believed and obeyed the rules of the Church which is a direct threat to the idiot on the throne of St. Peter.

The Roman Catholic church is not a democracy. She is hierarchic. The Pope is as much of a dictator as the father of a traditional family is. Fathers could overreach from time to time. So Popes.

There are opinions about how a Pope could cease to be Pope when defending doctrine that had been defined as heresy in the past.

Here is a light read that discuss the question.

Quote

“Obedience must have its limits, beyond which guilt begins.” 

In that article there is a quote of Cardinal Burke:

Quote

“If your bishop, or the supreme pastor of the Church, is affirming things not in accord with Sacred Tradition/the deposit of the faith, that can’t command your obedience. You can’t command obedience to do something against faith & morals"

So, the Pope could do as he wishes, but within those limits.

Yep the Pope can pretty much do whatever he wants.

Can a Pope be "voted out?"
