(Assuming Benedict was a real Pope....)Re: All of the Bishops in the world- there really aren't as many as most think- All of the Bishops consecrated after 1968 in the new rite would have a real problem. How many Traditionally consecrated Bishops ,(consecrated by a real Bishop) are there?Benedict was ordained a true Priest before 1968 so possibly he could be a real Pope (Siri dead in 1987 so Bene may have had a valid conclave), but Bergoglio wasn't even validly ordained as a priest (1969 NO)- Maybe there is a possibility if Benedict somehow stepped in miraculously and true Bishops complied.
I'm afraid I have to concur with your assessment, 2V.

Emile,I have to say,That Red October Meme is one of the best I've ever seen.
Even then, I don't think that Benedict's mere "visilble presence" would suffice. He's have to actually perform the consecration. There are some valid Eastern Rite bishops, and they would have to participate as well.
But if he is indeed a bishop, then he would have to be part of the collegial consecration. Did Our Lady mean "only diocesan ordinary bishops" or did she mean every Catholic bishop, even retired, co-adjutor, auxiliary, and so on? Does anybody know?
The moment has come when God asks the Holy Father to make, in union with all the bishops of the world, the consecration of Russia to My Immaculate Heart, promising to save it by this means.
Our Lady said the following, June 13, 1929:She didn't specify.
As expected. Not sure if they believe that the Pius XII consecration "counted" ... as the Dimonds do.
I think the point is that if doing it without the bishops is going to be considered a true consecration
