Why the Sedevacantist position is not dogma

    • There is a dogma: priests of the Catholic Church confect the Sacrament of the Eucharist and it is the True Body and Blood of Christ Himself
    There is a fact as certain as the dogma: My priest confects the Sacrament of the Eucharist and it is the True Body and Blood of Christ Himself

    The second is not dogma, but it is as certain as dogma.

    • What?  This has nothing to do with SVism.

    Second proposition is only morally certain, not dogmatically.  Could be that your priest isn't valid for one reason or another.

    Yes, but absolute moral certitude. For practical purposes of faith, because we offer adoration to what looks like bread but we know is not (hypothetical notwithstanding).

    We also know that the men commonly claiming to be true popes cannot be so, because the Church could not violate Mortalium Animos to the universal Church in all Her organs of the magisterium.

    What is the definition of "absolute moral certitude"?
