Episode 5 of "The Rural Sense Show". Pope Francis is easily one of the more controversial popes in the past century. This has led to many disputes among Catholics as to how far they should obey him and where they can respectfully disagree with him and criticize him.
Here the Instructive Scholar talks with renowned Catholic Historian and Theologian Professor Steve Weidenkopf about this question and dives into some of the History of the Catholic Church regarding bad popes, anti-popes, the Great Western Schism, the miraculous 6th Century saving of the Church from the Monophysite Heresy and, most importantly, the Heresy of Conciliarism and the teachings of Saint Robert Bellarmine on the Pope and Heresy, all of which tie in to many of the questions surrounding Pope Francis and the Catholic Church today.
