Canon law... there are two ways: either the bishops make an imperfect council, for example, & condemn Bergolio for heresy, or simply some cardinal says that Benedict XVI was prevented from ruling until death & declares sede vacante"

Archbishop Viganò has a very large media influence among Catholics. His analyses are good about the situation of the Church today, but they are not always sufficient to see the lighthouse clearly.

The Church shows historically and traditionally what is the compass to follow with the helm to the safe harbor, whose boat is now lost because of the great storm that enters water everywhere. Canon law is that safe haven because it is the sure discernment for great storms. So we can see that there are two ways: either the bishops make an imperfect council, for example, and condemn Bergolio for heresy, or simply some cardinal says that Benedict XVI was prevented from ruling until death and declares sede vacante. Both paths led the cardinals logically to elect a legitimate pope; but this time, however, they would carefully analyze the Universi Dominici gregis.

Lefebvre's similar move is not the right one, as it would be a stopgap to solve something very serious. Although the movement by necessity episcopal consecration in order to continue in the maintenance of the faith, the university and visibility of the Church would never be rescued; Cardinals would not exist, as they are chosen by a pope and would not even elect one.

Therefore, this would become an illusory path that goes against the dogmatic Vatican I which says that there will always be popes perpetually in the Church.

Here are five really short and easy to answer dubia questions which hopefully aren't too complicated for Steve Skojec, publisher of the One Peter Five website, to answer. To make it really easy for the publisher of One Peter Five it has been formatted so that he only has to answer: yes or no. 1. Doctor of the Church St. Francis de Sales said "The Pope... when he is explicitly a heretic... the Church must either deprive him or as some say declare him deprived of his Apostolic See." Was St. Francis de Sales a Sedevacantist or a Benevacantist? Answer: yes or no. 2. "Universal Acceptance" theologian John of St. Thomas said "This man in particular lawfully elected and accepted by the Church is the supreme pontiff." Was John of St. Thomas for saying "the supreme pontiff" must be BOTH "lawfully elected and accepted by the Church" a Sedevacantist or a Benevacantist? Answer: yes or no. 3. Do you think that a "supreme pontiff...

Has the Trad Media fallen into a COVID-like mass formation with "the Uncola or 'UnFrancis'" Leo XVI? While it's humorous to see the former anti-Francis Trad pundits suddenly acting like teen age girls infatuated with Leo, it could lead to a Trojan Horse effect
