The people calling me all kinds of names for posting the constant teaching of the Church, have fallen into the same mistake as the sedevacantes, a conundrum (When Catholics who follow antiquity/tradition, do not even need step into debate on those two simplistic, false, conclusions.) Sedevacantesism (he is not a pope because he teaches error) or Papalolotry (he can't teach error because he is the pope).

I commend you for posting from tradition.
Now: do you consider Pope Benedict to be a VALID Pope? I don’t want to know if you ACKNOWLEDGE him to be the “reigning” Pope. Do you consider him to be a VALID Pope?
Is he your pope?
Unless you can answer both of these in the affirmative, you’re just spinning your wheels. There are plenty of tradition-minded Catholics at FR who, while disagreeing with the Pope, believe he is a valid Pope.
Please just answer the questions.
