Why can't the Pope be fired?

[AnArmyVeteran]

If any leader in business or government did what the Pope has (allegedly) done, he would already be indicted, with a date set for his trial. And he would have resigned his position by now. This is not just one incidence of abuse against children. It is a decades or centuries old, systematic assault against the most vulnerable people in the church, by the most powerful people in the church, 'priests'. To participate in either the molesting or the coverup makes both heinous criminals.

The Pope should be afforded no other rights a common man has when they commit a crime. A robe or a cross should not ever come in the way of justice. The Pope will ultimately face his 'god' for ultimate judgement, but he should and must first be held accountable by an earthly court of law.
