  • Right, well even if the Fathers didn't make it clear, thankfully the Church was by Divine Providence able to foresee this and provided guidance.  Plus Sacred Scripture makes it clear in Gal 1:8.

    However, people, including the clergy, were blindsided and there was no internet for the first 40 years of the crisis so finding this information was quite the task!  Even with the internet it can be quite difficult to find.

    Like you say, obedience was what Catholics knew so there are many people who wanted to be good Catholics and continued to blindly obey.  This is why I don't judge people in whatever camp who are doing their best to strive for holiness in this crisis. 

    Yet, I personally want to learn and follow the truth to the best of my ability.

    So the quotes above, are they pertaining to a pope preaching heresy?

    Correct me if I'm wrong, but can it be said they are about resisting a pope in certain circuмstances, but a pope preaching heresy is of a different order?


    These statements seem to contrast with those above in that they all mention heresy:


    St. Francis de Sales:St. Robert Bellarmine:St. Alphonsus Liguori:St. Antoninus:Wernz-Vidal — Canon Law, 1943Catholic Encyclopedia, 1913Pope Innocent III:Matthaeus Conte a CoronataInstitutiones Iuris Canonici, 1950A. VermeerschEpitome Iuris Canonici, 1949Edward F. RegatilloInstitutiones Iuris Canonici, 1956
    Well, for the first few years at least, no one even knew it was the pope who was the perpetrator of the revolution happening within the Church. The fact here is that faithful Catholics were waiting for him to step in and stop the madness! When the faithful finally found out and accepted that the pope was the perpetrator, they did not lose the faith on that account, they did not go along on that account, they strove to go against the grain and persevere in the faith regardless - and many still persevere today, regardless. Others who chose to go along did so of their own free will, rejecting the only faith they ever knew to accept the new faith, using the excuse of obedience.

    I saw how sedeism divides the faithful, that's what it does, that's all it does, it serves absolutely no other purpose and does not profit anyone's salvation in any way, shape or form. And whoever disagrees, then how does one profit from it and aside from division, what other purpose does sedeism serve?

    The first set of your quotes teaches Catholics the course of action they are to take in the event of "false prophets" i.e. heretical popes, the second set of your quotes are only speculations, but let's say they are 100% true - in that case they can only be binding on consciences of the popes it applies to, but for our part, we do what your first set of quotes teach.

    Yes, there are so many divisions now, sadly.  It appears to be true that the Shepherd was struck and the sheep are scattered.  Well, I guess it has to come to pass so there is no avoiding it really.

     Plus Our Lord said he came to divide.  Still, I have long time friends who are Novus Ordo or FSSP and our disagreement doesn't mean we can no longer be friends.  

    As to the purpose the Sede position serves, in my case anyway, it's clear that Lucifer wants a One World Theosophical Religion in which everyone gives worship.  Now Traditional Catholics would never fully consent to giving worship to a pantheon of gods of course so they have to make it rather sneeky so as to deceive the elect.

    That is why I can't bring myself to worship "una cuм", in union with Francis.

    I don't share the same religion as him.

    I don't share the same gods.

    I exposed AB Vigano's public meetings with Crowleyan Satanist Dugin so I ask protection on myself family friends priest, under the Blood of Jesus Christ and mantle of the Blessed Virgin Mary! If harm comes to any of us may that embolden the faithful to speak out all the more so Catholics are not deceived.

  • Thanks for this post.  Ganswein here admits precisely the theory I have held for a long time, that it was precisely in order to suck in the Trads that it was implemented.

    Not according to Vigano in his sermon for Ratzinger's death:


    Of what he did and said during his long life, and in particular after ascending to the Throne of Peter, we wish to recall that providential gesture of truth and justice with which he recognized the full legitimacy of the apostolic liturgy, promulgating the Motu Proprio Summorum Pontificuм.

    Well, I would still like to know what purpose sedeism serves and how it profits souls unto salvation. Certainly Satan wants to destroy the Church, I am sure that's not what sedeism means to you.

    The Church has always taught that to omit the name of the pope in the canon of the mass for whatever reason, is an act of schism. Obviously sedes believe their reason is above reproach, yet the popes do say in no uncertain terms; "for whatever reason."
    Quote
    Ex Quo:
    "Let him know that he separates himself from the communion of the whole world, whoever does not mention the name of the Pope in the Canon, for whatever reason of dissension" [...] those who, for whatever reason of dissension, do not observe the custom of mentioning the name of the Apostolic Pontiff in the sacred mysteries, are separated from the communion of the whole world."
    Ex Quo even gives the reason why non-una cuм is condemned, because not only is omitting the name of the pope  an act of schism, it is a major cause of disunity.  Per Ex Quo, una cuм "is the profession of a mind and will which firmly espouses Catholic unity" and "a willingness to remain in the unity of the Church." This is why Ex Quo teaches: "the omission of this commemoration signifies the intention of steadfastly espousing schism." It just does.

    Yes, you're right, Satan definitely wants to destroy the Church. 

    Well, maybe that's not the best description though. 

    Actually, it appears that he wants to change the Church...or change the religion of the Church into something that worships him, or at least worships false gods like Allah (as it states in V2) and Pajamamama and whatever else.

    And yes, I get it that the thought of schism is scary and to be avoided at all cost!

    Well, like the Arian crisis when the heretical antichrists occupied the buildings,  or the French Revolution when the Masons occupied the buildings and said their government approved Latin Mass or the government approved fake Catholic Church in China,


    all of which sent the faithful underground

    the question is: Who left?  Who caused the schism?

    And that is a good question about the prohibition from omitting the name of the pope during Mass.

    I can definitely see why it would scare people from assisting at a non "una-cuм" mass!

    I could be wrong, but I believe that would be referring to "Catholic" popes. In other words, popes who actually practice the Catholic Faith so as to remain in the Church.

    If the Dali Lama were somehow voted in as pope (hey anything could happen these days, right?)

    would it be okay to offer the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass  "una cuм", in union with him?

    Wouldn't that be a great sacrilege?



    This is a meme so I can't make the font smaller unfortunately, but it explains who is in schism:

    This still does not answer what purpose sedeism serves and how it profits souls unto salvation. I've asked this a few times over the last few years and have never gotten an answer. Yes, the Church is in a crisis, yes the popes are heretics, yes the devil wants to destroy the Church - none of these truths answer the purpose of sedeism or how one profits from it.

    In this matter, it is par for the course to be contrary to what the Church teaches when we reference wild hypothetical scenarios such as the Dali Lama or women popes or whatever, simply due to the fact that the conciliar popes have all been elected according to the laws of the Church. IOW, if you want to go contrary to the law of the Church, then go right ahead and use wild hypotheticals as a means to do so.

    This is to say the only thing using wild hypotheticals can do, is lead to schism and put one in schism.

    Ex Quo does not use wild hypotheticals, it states plainly that his name is not to be omitted and why. They say this without any disclaimers or exceptions, and by the words "for whatever reason" they are saying that there are no exceptions. Which means what they are saying is absolute. As such, the presumption must be they were well aware of future heretical popes, not presume that "they only mean "Catholic popes."

    All I am attempting to do is point out the teaching of the Church, not my teaching, the Church's teaching, the clear words taught by the Church that cannot err, which is the Magisterium's teaching which is always without error, and the teaching of popes who, per most sedes, cannot teach error - all teach that the name of the pope, for whatever reason, is not to be omitted - and that to do so is the cause of disunity and is an act of schism.

    And if you believe and accept the teaching of the Church via Ex Quo without exception, then your meme would not only apply to the conciliar popes, it would also apply to sedes who celebrate Mass non-una cuм - per Ex Quo.

  • Yes, I see.  What do you make of it, Cassini?

    Were the assessments of Galileo binding on the faithful?

    If the Church defines and declares that the Bible reveals the word of God then that is binding unless the heresy is abrogated. That never happened. St Bellarmine, quoted a lot on this thread as an expert theologian on heresy and its consequences, was one of those churchmen who was part of that definition and declaration in 1616. In 1820, the head of the Holy Office admitted the 1616 decree was still in effect.

    But as we know, thanks to Voltaire's 'science' Bellarmine's Biblical heresy is now considered one of the 'embarrassing' stupid, false and mistaken heresies ever defined and declared by the Church, so it is now hidden away and ignored like all the other false Pythagorean heresies once held by all the Fathers, popes and theologians in the early 'uneducated' Church. That way all popes since 1820 can allow the flock to hold this heresy and many other related Pythagorean heresies free of charge.

  • I'm inclined to believe her testimony is credible.

    Same.  She comes across as credible, and you can see the emotional turmoil it causes her to recall incidents.  So if it's not true then she's either an Academy Award caliber actor or she's got a psychological problem where she believes this happened when it didn't.

    Also, Chiesa mentions but does not cite another independent witness to the same thing.

    I have long been of the opinion that we are not talking about a few individual papal claimants here who just have liberal minds.  God protects the office of the papacy.  No, what we have had here is a series of deliberate infiltrators who hate the Church and deliberately set out to destroy it.

    This will all come out eventually, and R&R will be put to the shame they rightly deserve for promoting Old Catholicism.

  • You don't need to read an entire book to find the balanced Catholic view of the overall inerrancy of the Church and the Magisterium.

    Msgr. Fenton sums it up here --
    http://www.catholicapologetics.info/thechurch/encyclicals/docauthority.htm
    Quote
    It might be definitely understood, however, that the Catholic’s duty to accept the teachings conveyed in the encyclicals even when the Holy Father does not propose such teachings as a part of his infallible magisterium is not based merely upon the dicta of the theologians. The authority which imposes this obligation is that of the Roman Pontiff himself. To the Holy Father’s responsibility of caring for the sheep of Christ’s fold, there corresponds, on the part of the Church’s membership, the basic obligation of following his directions, in doctrinal as well as disciplinary matters. In this field, God has given the Holy Father a kind of infallibility distinct from the charism of doctrinal infallibility in the strict sense. He has so constructed and ordered the Church that those who follow the directives given to the entire kingdom of God on earth will never be brought into the position of ruining themselves spiritually through this obedience. Our Lord dwells within His Church in such a way that those who obey disciplinary and doctrinal directives of this society can never find themselves displeasing God through their adherence to the teachings and the commands given to the universal Church militant. Hence there can be no valid reason to discountenance even the non-infallible teaching authority of Christ’s vicar on earth.
    ...
    It is, of course, possible that the Church might come to modify its stand on some detail of teaching presented as non-infallible matter in a papal encyclical. The nature of the auctoritas providentiae doctrinalis within the Church is such, however, that this fallibility extends to questions of relatively minute detail or of particular application. The body of doctrine on the rights and duties of labor, on the Church and State, or on any other subject treated extensively in a series of papal letters directed to and normative for the entire Church militant could not be radically or completely erroneous. The infallible security Christ wills that His disciples should enjoy within His Church is utterly incompatible with such a possibility.It might be definitely understood, however, that the Catholic’s duty to accept the teachings conveyed in the encyclicals even when the Holy Father does not propose such teachings as a part of his infallible magisterium is not based merely upon the dicta of the theologians.

    Apart from the dogmatic SVs who have overreacted to the errors of R&R by exaggerating the scope of infallibility, Catholics generally acknowledge the limits of "infallibility in the strict sense".

    But we're not talking about a mistake here or there in an expository section of an Encyclical.  We're talking about a thoroughly corrupted and polluted Catholic Magisterium (according to R&R) and the imposition of a Public Rite of Worship that harms souls and offends God.  Those of you who claim this is possible are blasphemers, and you're Old Catholic heretics.  There's no way to salvage your R&R as remotely Catholic.

    You could either go the route of Bishop Schneider who says that V2 can be fixed with one or two slight amendments or else you have to hold that V2 and the NOM were not given to the Church by legitimate papal authority that's freely exercised.

    You desperately cling to the limits of strict infallibility, but create a monstrous caricature of a Church that can have the 99% of her Magisterium that doesn't fall within the limits be completely corrupt, which is both blasphemous and heretical.

    So, apart from the 3-4 dogmatic definitions during the 19th and 20th centuries, the rest is totally up for grabs.

    Nor can you explain why the PREVIOUS Magisterium that V2 cotradicts couldn't have been in error, rather than V2 ... apart from your garbage tautology that "if something is true it's true, but if false then false" ... while leaving your private judgment as the arbiter of what falls into either category, i.e. making yourself the ultimate Magisterium except of course for solemn dogmatic definitions.

    It's shameful what you people do and promote, substituting the Catholic Faith with a rebranded Old Catholicism ... all to salvage this Satanic cabal that has infiltrated the Church.  To salvage Jorge Bergoglio and to have a guy walking around Rome in a while cassock, you throw the entire Church under the bus.

    Disgraceful, heretical, blasphemous.  You need to repent before it's too late.

  • See, R&R don't even HAVE to blaspheme the Church and slide into Old Catholicism now that Father Chazal has proposed a system that completely salvages "the papacy" and the honor of the Holy Catholic Church, the spotless Bride of Christ.  You don't have to throw out the unanimous teaching of the Church Fathers, Doctors, and theologians prior to Vatican II.  You don't have to burn all the pre-Vatican II theology "manuals" on a bonfire.

    I have repeatedly asked why R&R don't jump on board with Father Chazal?

    Any answer to that?

    You have an "out" where you don't have to be "sedevacantists" (that dirty word) while you can also preserve the integrity of the Holy See and of the Holy Catholic Church in general.  You can still have your Bergoglio walking around the Vatican gardens (or rolling in his wheelchair) while not having to throw the Church under the bus to do it.

    I see that one of our resident Old Catholics downthumbed the post.

    Still asking for a satisfactory explanation for why you don't adopt Father Chazal eminently Catholic position regarding the state of the Church.

    Loudestmouth-

    You do realize you are an idiot whose delusions (flat earth; no pope for 65 years; all catechisms have taught error for 450 years because nobody could translate voto properly, Siri nonsense, etc) place your sanity in question.

    Why would anyone listen to a quack like you?

  • See, R&R don't even HAVE to blaspheme the Church and slide into Old Catholicism now that Father Chazal has proposed a system that completely salvages "the papacy" and the honor of the Holy Catholic Church, the spotless Bride of Christ.  You don't have to throw out the unanimous teaching of the Church Fathers, Doctors, and theologians prior to Vatican II.  You don't have to burn all the pre-Vatican II theology "manuals" on a bonfire.

    I have repeatedly asked why R&R don't jump on board with Father Chazal?

    Any answer to that?

    You have an "out" where you don't have to be "sedevacantists" (that dirty word) while you can also preserve the integrity of the Holy See and of the Holy Catholic Church in general.  You can still have your Bergoglio walking around the Vatican gardens (or rolling in his wheelchair) while not having to throw the Church under the bus to do it.

    Father Chazal recognizes Francis as pope. 

    He attached a word, "impounded," to him, but treats him the same as Sean, no? 

    You absurdly make this a game of semantics, a word game . . . or better, you're like a man that's willing to have men die and go to war if so and so doesn't make some gesture or bow to him. Your argument is all about technical proprieties that will allow you to hold to the "dignity" of some old manualists, like the man in the example of my previous sentence who will stake souls and lives on some ridiculous gesture or word that he thinks must be produced to maintain his "code" or whatever. 

    Of course, you will maintain that the "dignity" of the Church requires one to whisper that word, "impounded," but Sean doesn't need your "out" to save his life and preserve his soul. Like Father Chazal, he's got the disease put away where it won't contaminate him. 

    You should go off and shine your medals and leave brother Sean alone.

    Apoc 17:17 For God hath given into their hearts to do that which pleaseth him: that they give their kingdom to the beast, till the words of God be fulfilled.
