    • What is your definition of sedevacantism? I already gave you mine, so this shouldn't be a problem.

    • I think it is self evident what it is.
    The Mental Gymnastics to even determine the definition is worrying  :jester:

    All Catholics are sedevacantists in times of interregnum.  A sedevacantist is a Catholic who believes the Seat is vacant.

    2Vermont, on the other thread, the above is what you defined as "Sedevacantist".  Do you really expect me to believe that this is your definition of "Sedevacantist"?  This is the most stripped down, bare bones definition that the Sedevacantist groups would state is incomplete.  If "all Catholics are sedevacantists in times of interregnum", then you should be able prove that the term "sedevacantist" was used to describe Catholics during interregnums prior to Vatican II.  Please show me that proof.

    Actually, Sean has stated his definition, I believe it was on page 2 of this topic thread.

    "If you believe the man claiming to be pope is an antipope, and furthermore, that nobody else is currently pope, you are by definition sedevacantist (as every sedevacantist will attest)"

    Mr. G, on the other thread, you wrote that Sean stated the above definition of "sedevacantist".  Whereas it is a more precise definition than the one provided by 2Vermont, it is still lacking because it does not provide the cause of one being a "sedevacantist".  The Sedevacantist groups would see this definition as being incomplete as well.

    I too asked the question regarding being able to prove that the term "sedevacantist" has been used (by the Church) to describe Catholics during interregnums, but 2Vermont didn't want to respond to the question. That's probably because it's not true. Catholics, to my knowledge, have never been referred to as sedevacantists during an interregnum. Catholics do not suddenly have the qualifier of 'sedevacantist Catholic' just because there's a period of time when there's no pope due to a pope dying, and the necessary time needed for a new pope to be elected.

    But does a definition have to provide a cause? Although it would be helpful to bring more precession to a definition, I am sure that it is not required to be classified as a definition. We can take other "isims" and look at their definitions and see if causes are given, for example Capitalism, Communism, Rationalism, etc.

    No, every sedevacantist is defined by this alone: 

    The man claiming to be pope is an antipope, and there are no other claimants who are pope.

    Why one believes this to be the case is irrelevant to the fact that it is believed.
