That’s my point. The only people who can figure this out are those in the Church. I’m sick and tired of sedes using 3rd-grade logic to argue that laity and simple priests can kick someone out of office for heresy. It’s causing untold division in Tradition and it’s irrationality leads to more and more chaos as the years go by.
We don't kick them out, The Holy Ghost does, we just recognize that fact.
It would be like if we saw some guy blatantly stealing from a store and running out without paying, the store clerks upset that the guy didn't pay for it and saying such, and then being like "nope, we need to wait for the police to catch him and the judge to sentence him for theft before we can recognize that he stole something."
