Hello everyone, I've been a member of Cathinfo for closer to a year but this is my first time starting a thread, please let me know if I'm doing anything wrong! I'm a young Traditional Catholic, and I haven't found ample time to do serious research into this specific topic, so forgive me for any possible ignorance.
I was simply wondering what the SSPX Resistance and other non-Sedevacantist Catholics on Cathinfo would believe if Pope Francis were to infallibly declare and define a dogma that wasn't contrary to pre-Vatican II, Church teaching. Such as a Marian dogma. I am not personally a Sedevacantist, however, I am in no way against the position, and the only other Traditional Catholics I know are Sedevacantists. Of course, for Sedevacantists, this specific issue can be brushed off because Francis isn't the Pope and so even if the statement was true it wouldn't be defined dogma. But if Francis is the Pope, does he still possess the power to infallibly define teachings of the Church, or would these dogmas need to later be redefined by a a good Catholic Pope? Thank you for your patience and God bless you all.
