Mar 21, 2017 at 19:52 comment added Geremia @Grasper Papacy ≠ pope (just like: presidency ≠ president, kingship ≠ king, etc.). The papacy is the office; a pope is the holder of the office. The office doesn't cease to exist when no man holds the office (e.g., during interregnums).
Mar 21, 2017 at 18:13 comment added Peter Turner @grasper who is in charge when there is no pope It's the college of cardinals, with limited power.
Mar 21, 2017 at 17:55 comment added Grasper but we didn't have a pope many times during the election periods. Did it mean the Church didn't exist during those periods?
