Is the Pope catholic?
I’m with her except the green vegetables and gardening part.
“T]he great majority of our sacramental marriages are null. Because they say, Yes, for the rest of my life! but they dont know what they are saying. . . . They say it, they have good will, but they dont know.
We have been redeemed by our ignorance.
Does this perhaps apply to Pope’s as well?
Francis is a despicable enemy of the church. I hope he dies in his sleep tonight.
If sedevacantism was a stock, I’d buy it because it’s think it’s going to increase a lot.
I am so sick of the ignoramuses. They are either ignorant or bad-willed. I am slowly coming to believe that most of them are of the latter.
“... declaring Bergoglio to be an antipope wont change any of that.”
I agree. So, I think it is time to stop propagating the sedevacanist slander. God is NEVER going to let the even the ‘gates of hell’ prevail against Holy Mother Church.
I am sometimes uncomfortable with Francis, and I do understand people’s concerns. That being said; in my mind Emeritus Benedict XVI is beyond reproach, and I resent the implications implied in the article.
Dominus vobiscum...
Yup. Bad-willed. He has been at this long enough to know that what he wrote is false. Most sedes do not proclaim sedevacantism as dogma. Most sedes take their position as an opinion ..albeit the true opinion (we can't both be right).
And his whining about being called non-Catholic? Waaah. Puhleese. I see sedes get that WAY more often than non-sedes especially from those pesky 'dogmatic' sedeplenists (ie. SSPX/R&R followers).
Is the current pope a Christian? Is he in fact possessed of the Holy Spirit? Because if he is not then he is certainly illegitimate, no matter how he came to be in office.
The substitution of Benedict certainly looks and smells like a coup d’état.
How can you know? Guided by scripture and right reason and the workings of the Holy Spirit, you already know. How do you get through it? Guided by scripture, and right reason, and the guidance of the Holy Spirit. Pray and look for God to move. Prepare to move as he says “move”. Bergoglio isn’t the Church. The Church is the Church. Christ is the head of the church.
The Maid of Lone Tree isn’t everyone’s favorite comrade-in-arms. She can be prickly and contrary. Had she lived in the time of Christ, even Jesus would have rolled His eyes over some of her comments.
Still, I like her. She can smell sulphur at a thousand miles, and she’s fearless as a badger.
What about a resignation prompted by “grave fear” that is NOT “inflicted unjustly”?
In short, simply adhere to the Deposit of Faith. Disregard the perverse opinions of Francis, et al. Detour around the unholy stench arising from their swamp of delusion. When they open their foolish mouths, hit the "ignore" button. Whether ecclesial office holders are saints, or fools, or scoundrels or heretics is irrelevant to the Truth transmitted to us by Christ.

Comedy Hour at The Remnant: Francis is the Pope Until the Pope Says Hes Not
Peek-a-boo! Is he or isnt he?
HE IS NOT CATHOLIC, THEREFORE HE IS NOT THE POPE!
Excerpts from Novus Ordo Watch's rebuttal of Hillary White:
"While Miss White clearly does not mean to be a Francis apologist, she is one de facto, simply by defending his claim to being the Pope of the Catholic Church. It is this idea that gives him all the legitimacy he needs to destroy souls on a massive scale. It does not matter how much she may resist this or that from Francis the fact alone that she proclaims from the housetops and tells others that this man is the head of the Catholic Church inflicts incalculable damage to souls wherever her voice reaches, because unlike the people at The Remnant, most people in the world, no matter their religion, still understand that if Francis is the Pope of the Catholic Church, then his religion is necessarily the Catholic religion fancy blog posts from journalists and slyly-argued articles from retired lawyers notwithstanding. All those who vociferously defend Francis claim to the Papacy in public ought to be aware that, regardless of their intentions, they will one day have to answer for the damage they have caused in all the souls their writings have reached."
"There is only one way to defeat Francis: You must proclaim from the housetops that he is not the Pope of the Catholic Church. If enough people do it, he is effectively deprived of that which alone gives him all his putative authority: the publics belief that this man holds the highest office in the Catholic Church. Take that away from him, and he is finished. In the real Catholic Church, Jorge Bergoglio would not even be in a charge of a broom closet. It is time people realized that."
