If it is possible to criticize the Pope while loving the Papacy (as did St Catherine of Siena), then it is also possible to praise the Pope while hating the Papacy. This is exactly what many are doing when they praise Pope Francis.
"I like this new Pope, he is going to change things!" or "Pope Francis is great, because he breaks the rules and washes women's feet!" -- These and other "praises" completely misunderstand Pope Francis, but are actually acts of hatred for the Papacy and the Catholic Church.
God didn't give us a Pope to change things, the job of the Pope is to keep things the same -- The same faith, the same Church!
