  • 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 --

    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.
    Pope Francis and all the conciliar popes firmly believe this crap from Fr. Fenton, particularly the bolded part. YOU do not however, and neither do I for that matter. The difference between us is, I admit it.

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

    This is what Fr. Chazal believes, and I don't have a problem with it:

    "It is licit to resist a Sovereign Pontiff who is trying to destroy the Church. I say it is licit to resist him in not following his orders and in preventing the execution of his will. It is not licit to judge him, or to depose him, for these are acts proper to a superior."

    ~St. Robert Bellarmine
    De Romano Pontifice, Lib.II, c.29


    "It is licit to resist a Sovereign Pontiff who is trying to destroy the Church. I say it is licit to resist him in not following his orders and in preventing the execution of his will. It is not licit to Judge him, to punish him, or to depose him, for these are acts proper to a superior."

    Lad’s response:

    “Well, you see Meg, St. Bellermine’s response is heretical, blasphemous, and opposed by all the saints, Fathers, and Doctors of the Church.  I gave St. Bellarmine an out, but he wouldn’t take it for some reason.”

    John Daly, confronted by the blatant repudiation this quote represented to sede ecclesiology, tried to “context” his way out of it (as though St. Bellarmine’s principle was only valid for that particular instance, which is precisely what all modernists do with all preconciliar teaching: doctrinal relativism, which states doctrines are only true for the time and circuмstances in which they are written), but me thinks he doth protest too much.

    Ironically, this same artifice paves the way for doctrinal evolution and the V2 apologists to bowl through all the conciliar contradictions vis-a-vis traditional doctrine.

    It is the same means by which the heretical “hermeneutic of continuity” operates.

  • 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.

    What is the purpose of Sedeism?

    Doing our best to preserve the Catholic Faith as it was passed down from the Apostles.


    It's very clear that you love the Catholic Church and her teachings, Stubborn.

    Yes, I think we both have great reverence for the teaching of the Catholic Church which is not yours or mine,

    so this is not a matter of opinion but of trying to follow what she has promulgated

    to the very best of our ability during this extraordinarily difficult time.



    As for wild hypotheticals...

    Well instead of using the Dali Lama, let's use the example of someone who is elected pope with the intention of promulgating the Muslim religion.

    Would that be possible?  Sounds crazy!  How on earth could that be?

    Is it possible that somebody could become pope and change the Catholic Faith to one where Catholics actually worship Allah?

    That's not a hypothetical actually. 

    That's reality since Vatican II states that Catholics worship the same god as Muslims.

    Do you worship the same god as Muslims, Stubborn?

    Do you worship Allah?

    I don't.

    I guess that means that I am not "una cuм"

    the Concilliar Church or their popes.

    I'm not "in union with" them

    because I don't worship the same gods as they do.

    We had Benedict praying for the coming of the Moshiach (antichrist) at a synogogue on Good Friday

    and Francis worshiping Pajamamama in the Church.

    I can't join my worship to theirs.

    To say I worship "in union with" them would be a lie.

    There is only one religion and only one God.

    To offer the sacrifice of my Dear Lord and Savior in union with them and their gods is just....

    well, I can't bear the thought. 

    They deny Christ and are antichrists.

    I can't offer Our Lord's sacrifice in union with antichrists. 

    I just can't stomach it.



    Can a non Catholic even become a pope?

    Anyone who has the intention of implementing Vatican II

    has the intention of promoting the worship of Allah

    as a Catholic god.

    They are clearly not Catholic and are barred from election.


    It would be equivalent to using a potato chip

    at the consecration at Mass instead of unleavened bread -

    it’s invalid matter and no consecration takes place.


    Public heretics or apostates have left the Church.  They are not Catholic and do not intend to promulgate the Catholic Faith.

    They are not “valid matter”for any office in the Church and are barred by divine law from the papacy.


    Non Catholics cannot become pope.


    It's a very hard reality to face, but face it we must.


    Fortunately, the Church prepared us for this time through statements from popes, Sacred Scripture, canon law, saints and theologians and prophecies.


    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.

    Yes, St. Bellarmine's writing on the subject is a blatant repudiation of sede ecclesiology. I wasn't aware that a certain sedevacantist had said that Bellarmine's view was only situational.

    I don't see how that's true, given that Bellarmine said that...."it is licit to resist a Sovereign Pontiff who is trying to destroy the Church." Bellarmine did not name a particular Pope attached to this; he didn't say that it is licit to resist the Sovereign Pontiff (name of Pontiff inserted). 

    "A Sovereign Pontiff" implies that this applies to any Sovereign Pontiff who is trying to destroy the Faith.
    "It is licit to resist a Sovereign Pontiff who is trying to destroy the Church. I say it is licit to resist him in not following his orders and in preventing the execution of his will. It is not licit to Judge him, to punish him, or to depose him, for these are acts proper to a superior."

    This still does not answer the question. 


    As for wild hypotheticals...

    Well instead of using the Dali Lama, let's use the example of someone who is elected pope with the intention of promulgating the Muslim religion.

    [...]

    the Concilliar Church or their popes.

    I'm not "in union with" them...

    I think it was Sean who posted a quote some time ago beautifully explaining all about una cuм, which agreed with +ABL saying that was not the meaning at all, because it's not.

    But again, forget about hypotheticals in this matter. I say this only because they do not apply in this matter.  The reason that they do not apply is because the conciliar popes were all elected according to the law established by popes themselves. Even Fr. Cakada (rip) agreed that according to the law, a heretic could indeed be elected pope and he was right. Either way you have got to stick with the law, that's why it's there. 

    Regardless of all that, it is the teaching of the Church that to omit the popes' name for whatever reason causes disunity and is an act of schism.

    What constantly amazes me is sedes ignore this Church teaching from a Church that cannot err, from a magisterium that is infallible, and from popes who cannot teach error.......I ask the reason for this and cannot get an answer.

    I just read it again, great article! https://tinyurl.com/fr6yy9hd

    But there is another one somewhere in CI land, I think maybe you posted it, but maybe not. I will see if I can find it as it went more in depth as to exactly what is being prayed in the canon when the pope's name is mentioned.

    Was it this one?


    Archbishop Lefebvre and the sedevacantists
    (a little known docuмent)
     
    Concerning the position of Archbishop Lefebvre on the “non una cuм” sedevacantist position, after the Episcopal consecrations of 1988; here is an excerpt from a conference given by Archbishop Lefebvre during a retreat preached to the sisters of Saint-Michel en Brenne 1, France, on April 1st, 1989 (AUDIO excerpt attached).

    ”… And then, he (Dom Guillou O.S.B. 2) goes through all the prayers of the Canon, all the prayers of the Roman Canon. He goes through them one after the other and then he shows the difference, he gives translations, very good ones. He gives, for example, precisely this famous.. you know, this famous una cuм.., una cuм of the sedevacantists. And you, do you say una cuм? (laughter of the nuns of St-Michel-en-Brenne). You say una cuм in the Canon of the Mass! Then we cannot pray with you; then you’re not Catholic; you’re not this; you’re not that; you’re not.. Ridiculous! ridiculous! because they claim that when we say una cuм summo Pontifice, the Pope, isn’t it, with the Pope, so therefore you embrace everything the Pope says. It’s ridiculous! It’s ridiculous! In fact, this is not the meaning of the prayer.

    Te igitur clementissime Pater. This is the first prayer of the Canon. So here is how Dom Guillou translates it, a very accurate translation, indeed :

    “We therefore pray Thee with profound humility, most merciful Father, and we beseech Thee, through Jesus Christ, Thy Son, Our Lord, to accept and to bless these gifts, these presents, these sacrifices, pure and without blemish, which we offer Thee firstly for Thy Holy Catholic Church. May it please Thee to give Her peace, to keep Her, to maintain Her in unity, and to govern Her throughout the earth, and with Her, Thy servant our Holy Father the Pope.”

    It is not said in this prayer that we embrace all ideas that the Pope may have or all the things he may do. With Her, your servant our Holy Father the Pope, our Bishop and all those who practice the Catholic and Apostolic Orthodox faith! So to the extent where, perhaps, unfortunately, the Popes would no longer have …, nor the bishops…, would be deficient in the Orthodox, Catholic and Apostolic Faith, well, we are not in union with them, we are not with them, of course. We pray for the Pope and all those who practice the Catholic and Apostolic Orthodox faith!
    Then he (Dom Guillou) had a note about that to clarify a little:

    “In the official translation, based on a critical review of Dom Botte O.S.B. 3, the UNA cuм or “in union with” of the sedevacantists of any shade is no longer equivalent but to the conjunction “and ” reinforced either by the need to restate the sentence, or to match the solemn style of the Roman canon. Anyway, every Catholic is always in union with the Pope in the precise area where the divine assistance is exercised, infallibility confirmed by the fact that as soon as there is a deviation from the dogmatic Tradition, the papal discourse contradicts itself.

    Let us collect the good grain, knowing that for the rest, it is more necessary than ever to ask God, with the very ancient Major Litanies, that be “kept in the holy religion” the “holy orders” and the “Apostolic Lord” himself (that is to say the Pope): UT DOMINUM APOSTOLIcuм AND OMNES ECCLESIASTICOS ORDINES IN SANCTA RELIGIONE CONSERVARE DIGNERIS, TE ROGAMUS, AUDI NOS.”

    It is a request of the litanies of the Saints, right? WE ASK TO KEEP THE POPE IN THE TRUE RELIGION. We ask that in the Litanies of the Saints! This proves that sometimes it can happen that unfortunately, well, maybe sometimes it happens that… well there have been hesitations, there are false steps, there are errors that are possible. We have too easily believed since Vatican I, that every word that comes from the mouth of the Pope is infallible. That was never said in Vatican I! The Council never said such a thing. Very specific conditions are required for the infallibility; very, very strict conditions. The best proof is that throughout the Council, Pope Paul VI himself said “There is nothing in this Council which is under the sign of infallibility”. So, it is clear, he says it himself! He said it explicitly.

    Then we must not keep this idea which is FALSE! which a number of Catholics, poorly instructed, poorly taught, believe! So obviously, people no longer understand anything, they are completely desperate, they do not know what to expect! We must keep the Catholic faith as the Church teaches it.”

The best proof is that throughout the Council, Pope Paul VI himself said “There is nothing in this Council which is under the sign of infallibility”. So, it is clear, he says it himself! He said it explicitly.
    Then we must not keep this idea which is FALSE! which a number of Catholics, poorly instructed, poorly taught, believe! So obviously, people no longer understand anything, they are completely desperate, they do not know what to expect! We must keep the Catholic faith as the Church teaches it. »

  • It is a request of the litanies of the Saints, right? WE ASK TO KEEP THE POPE IN THE TRUE RELIGION. We ask that in the Litanies of the Saints! 

    What happens when a one decides to dump the True Religion instead or replace it with false worship and the like?  I guess their office is impounded or something?  Or maybe they receive a Thumbs-Down from the CathInfo water cooler crowd?

    I thought Lefebvre drew one of his lines in the sand just before the Apostasy at Assisi.
