He will step down.
I guess time will tell who is correct... ;-)
The eternal question, “is the Pope a Catholic?” is still relevant.
It would be wonderful if he would vacate the Throne of Peter, but highly unlikely. He’s power-crazed and he has simply arrogated to the Papacy more power than was ever dreamed of, even by the ultramontanists of Vatican I. And nobody has even started to oppose him seriously until now, when he’s already well entrenched. So he’s loving it.
The other problem, of course, is that he has probably done permanent damage to the Church. The bishops of Argentina, Malta and Germany are going their own Francis-way on questions of marriage, sin, free-will, the Eucharist, etc.; Francis has removed most of the orthodox people from positions of influence, silenced others, and filled the hierarchy with his heretical sycophants. He seriously thinks he’s not the successor to Peter, but the successor to Jesus Christ, come to establish a whole new Church after 2000 years of failure on the part of Our Lord. The new Church of an arrogant, arrogant, evil little man.
