Because his understanding of St. Bellarmine’s position is not his own, but that of his esteemed contemporary, Cajetan (as well as John of St. Thomas and Journet), and not that of some internet jockey who thinks he knows better than them what St. Bellarmine “REALLY” meant.

John of St. Thomas: "Hence, Bellarmine and Suarez are of the opinion that, by the very fact that the Pope is a manifest heretic and declared to be incorrigible, he is deposed [ipso facto] by Christ our Lord without any intermediary, and not by any authority of the Church."

In other words, Lad does not truly hold St. Bellarmine's opinion, but a distorted bastardization of it, for even St. Bellarmine -according to John of St. Thomas- requires a declaration from the Church before he is deposed.

Effectively, Lad has called St. Bellarmine "stupid" for judging the pope.

The truth of the matter is that any sede appealing to St. Bellarmine does not understand St. Bellarmine.  But we can be pretty sure John of St. Thomas does, and it is his description of St. Bellarmine's position that we have quoted here.

Or will you choose the twisted ramblings of the flat-earth Feeneyite pope deposer to impart to you "the true" position of St. Bellarmine?

When you and Lad, et al., start doing that, I tune out.
