The historical events you bring to our attention, specifically the Western Schism, seem to me to be of more than theoretical interest. What good is there in having an infallible Papacy if you do not have a way of locating who might be the Pope? Pope Francis's actions/remarks have fostered conversation among even conservative Catholics about the meaning of Papal prerogatives and the limits of Papal authority: see the articles that regularly appear on Lew Rockwell, or on The New Liturgical Movement.
