It certainly is true that the status of some popes[Boniface,
Benedict XV(15) and 1 or 2 more]is disputed even to this day. The Church has however made a formal declaration in about 40 cases of anti-popes and this is not up to us to dispute. It is also of course true that the v2 anti-popes have not been formally declared as such so far.

Roscoe - may I ask who you think the last legitimate Pope was - or who the legitimate Pope is at present (if such a one exists)?

Look under Pope Paul VI search in Tradition in Action.
Lot of questions answered, or at lease debated.

Mo is that Gregory XVII was True Pope until he died in 1989. What has happened after that is not clear to me. I do however believe that there is a Pope somewhere.

To those who cannot conceive of the above scenario-- it has happened At Least a few times b4 that people have not known who the Pope is for whatever length of time.

Thanks for replying roscoe - I appreciate it. Do you attend an independent chapel? In fact, I guess what I am asking is, are there any independent chapels that considered Cardinal Siri to be the Pope? I have never met someone who believed that before so I am curious.
