Is it possible for someone to be an antipope even though the majority of cardinals claim he is pope? The case of Antipope Anacletus II proves that it is possible for a majority of cardinals to claim a man is pope while he, in reality, is an antipope. In 1130, a majority of cardinals voted for Cardinal Peter Pierleone to be pope. He called himself Anacletus II. He was proclaimed pope and ruled Rome for eight years by vote and consent of a absolute majority of the cardinals despite the fact he was a antipope. In 1130, just prior to the election of antipope Anacletus, a small minority of cardinals elected the real pope: Pope Innocent II. How is this possible? St. Bernard said "the 'sanior pars' (the wiser portion)... declared in favor of Innocent II. By this he probably meant a majority of the cardinal-bishops."

And Bergoglio is the greatest representation of this same Gnostic infiltration, not the fault of the divine institutions of both the papacy and the Church, but of those same false brothers with human and hidden customs within it.
The Church belongs to the Incarnate Word, who redeemed the human race, and has now Annihilatedthe Anti-Church. The evidence demonstrates this in this eschatological, theological, and prophetic time coming to an end. All of this is consistent with Pope Benedict XVI's ultimate action against the the Gnostic Church.
