Dear Editor,

First of all, thank you for all your efforts to combat the crisis in the Church!

I am writing to you because it has been brought to my attention that a contributor to the Cathinfo forum, with the username Jupiter,
has falsely claimed in the following thread to be a contributor to the WM Review:


https://www.cathinfo.com/crisis-in-the-church/t66100/

He writes:

"I am a contributor, but I am not Mr. Wright."

And:

"Certain of my views, such as those on Communicatio in Sacris, “dogmatic” Sedevacantism, Extra Ecclesiam Nulla Salus,
and the Jєωιѕн Question would be viewed as extreme and would limit my abilities to contribute in the future to numerous
publications and would also negatively impact my current job position so I would rather not indulge this detail.
My apologies in advance."


There are only three published contributors to the WM Review, all of whose names are publicly available on the website.

This means Jupiter is effectively impersonating either myself or John Lane.

Would you be able to remove this post from the forum?

I can confirm that Jupiter is unknown to us and has never contributed in any way to the WM Review.

Thank you in advance for your assistance,

Best wishes,

Matthew McCusker

As a very wise man once asked: If the pope dies and nobody knows about it, does he retain office until someone finds him?

Would we have treat him as pope until some process has recognised the fact of his death and declared otherwise?

I've noticed a pattern in that sedevacantists will, at times, post a hypothetical, such as the above, and then procede to posit a thesis based on the hypothetical, as if it were indeed "fact." 

But a hypothetical is not necessarily a fact, so it seems odd to base a thesis on it. Did Aquinas ever do this? I don't recall that he had ever done so. 

Bellarmine’s comment:

“Although Liberius was not a heretic, still it was considered that, on account of the peace made with the Arians, that he was a heretic, and from that presumption his pontificate could rightly be abrogated. For men cannot be held to thoroughly search hearts; yet when they see one who is a heretic by his external works, then they judge simply and condemn him as a heretic.”

This is, what many Trads don't want to understand. Another translation goes:

Quote from: translation by Jim Larrabee
for men are not bound, or able to read hearts; but when they see that someone is a heretic by his external works, they judge him to be a heretic pure and simple, and condemn him as a heretic.

That's how things look like, by divine law. It's the will of the Lord that we reject, shun, and fight heretics.

Good article, Jupiter.


P.S.: Jupiter? Really?
