For millions of faithful Catholics the defining moment of Jorge Bergoglio's papacy was his worship, with Cardinal Cláudio Hummes and assorted clerics, of a pagan idol in the Vatican Gardens in 2019. 

But other, minor moments are too many and too scandalous to mention yet again. As the pretender pope comes closer to his inevitable end they seem to multiply and accelerate in a kind of terrifying tailspin for the Church. 

On this feast of St Peter Damien, Doctor of the Church and holy terror of sodomites, a reader of this blog offers an admirable summary of the multiple theories around the putative resignation of Pope Benedict XVI and the resolutions that might be reached in order to rescue the papacy and restore orthodoxy and holiness in Christ's Church. 

Archbishop Carlo Maria Viganò - a thorn in Francis' side

Is the Pope Catholic?

What’s the status of the Papal Office, and what do we do?

There are a number of theories concerning the resignation of Pope Benedict XVI on February 28, 2013, which if correct would render it invalid. Several more may apply to the ensuing conclave of cardinals and at least three more may apply to the status of Jorge Bergoglio/Pope Francis. All of which affect the question of whether or not The Holy See, the Chair of St Peter, is currently vacant. It 's most likely that at least one is correct; possibly several.

Below is a summary of the various scenarios under discussion and the current status of the Papal Office: is it vacant, or is it not ? The matrix includes suggestions of what course of action should logically follow in the case of any of these theories proving to be correct.

Archbishop Vigano’s Statement 8 Dec 2023

Note:

The Formal Declaration of a Heresy, or the Declaration of a person as a Formal Heretic, is reserved for the holder of the Papal Office. This is different from a person being a “Material Heretic,” which situation arises when an individual demonstrates heretical beliefs or publicly declares him/herself a heretic.

Logically, the Pope cannot be a heretic because by adhering to heresy the Pope would automatically leave the Office of the Papacy and leave the Catholic Church. From that moment of choosing heresy over the Faith he could no longer remain as Pope. This needs to be made obvious to the faithful by his declaration or manifestation of Material Heresy - i.e. by his becoming a Material Heretic.

 

This problem is not one to be left to future Catholics to resolve, as souls are being lost. It has to be resolved now.

  

The Pachamama statue was highly visible in various venues in the Vatican all throughout the Amazon Synod. Indigenous people bowed down and said prayers before it in the Vatican gardens, in front of the Pope. Churches were re-oriented to feature the statue more prominently than the tabernacle. Cardinals and bishops carried it in a procession, in front of the Pope.

I am not a theologian, nor a Catholic scholar. This summary of the current discussions aims at assisting ordinary lay Catholics to decide for themselves what happened, and why. They can then take action proper to their station in life to help correct any error.

Christ is King and the High Priest of His Church. When the papacy becomes vacant because a heretic has chosen to leave the Church, and when the cardinals have fled - or worse, are wolves dressed as shepherds - then the responsibility to act belongs to those institutions still managed by the faithful, and to the faithful individuals who remain (the “remnant”).

There is no salvation outside the Church; there is nowhere else to go. Catholics must each defend the faith to the best of our individual abilities. As St Joan of Arc said “Act, and God will act.”

The matrix below shows the theories currently under discussion, in rough chronological order of when each theory may have arisen, except for serial 7 - Bergoglio having become a heretic prior to 2013 and thus having already left the Church before his election to the papacy.

So what?

What happened? What is the current status of the Papal Office – is it vacant or occupied? What needs to be done and how do we do it?

Some of the theories listed below are complex and may mean people need to make further enquiries; others are fairly simple. Links are included to assist with further reading. (To see the matrix in full, please scroll down and also across.)

The Papacy is an Office (Munis) authority to carry out the Ministerium is derived from the authority that the Office holds, hence the lack of clarity and confusion is his announcement.
4	Invalid Conclave	Papacy still occupied (for any reason, including any of the reasons listed in serial 1-3)	College of cardinals has power to call a conclave to elect a Pope only if the Office is vacant. Papacy still occupied as there can only be one Pope at any time.	Pope Benedict remained as Pope so conclave invalid as Papal Office still occupied	Papacy now Vacant As of Dec 2022 due to Pope Benedict’s death, Still vacant 2024	For the Laity: Pray for a new Pope soon. Talk/Write to your Bishop.

5	Invalid Conclave process	Simony (Buying votes)	(Assuming that the Papacy was empty due to a valid resignation)	Simony invalidates result of Conclave. (See Chapter 5 below https://www.vatican.va/content/john-paul-ii/en/apost_constitutions/documents/hf_jp-ii_apc_22021996_universi-dominici-gregis.html )	As of Pope Benedict’s resignation the papacy would now be vacant		Call a valid Conclave and select a new Pope	Church returns to last known “good state” All Bergoglio’s actions were invalid so are null and void	Not the Pope, so no protections afforded the holder of the Papal Office	People involved in the conclave said that this happened.

7	Material Heresy by Bergoglio (Before 13 March 2013)	Before becoming the “Pope,” (Assuming that Bergoglio/ Francis had already manifested heresy prior to 13 March 2013)	(Assuming that the Papacy was vacant)	A heretic has himself chosen to leave the Church, (Latae Sententiae Ipso Facto), therefore cannot enter any office within the Church while still manifesting heresy. So he never became pope	Papacy would be now Vacant As of Pope Benedict’s resignation, (assumes valid resignation)	For the Laity: Pray for a new Pope soon. Talk/Write to your Bishop. Write to The Papal Nuncio, (Papal Ambassador), in your country	Call a valid Conclave and select a new Pope	Church returns to last known “good state” All Bergoglio’s actions were invalid, so null and void.   Explain to the faithful that as a material heretic Bergoglio chose to leave the Church,  so was ineligible to be elected pope	Not the pope, so no protections afforded the holder of the Papal Office
8	Bergoglio accepted the papal office with prior intent to destroy the Church (on earth) and/or to create an Anti-church (An Ape of the Church).	As described by Archbishop Carlo Maria Vigano in his Statement 8 Dec 2023	(Assuming that the papacy was vacant prior to the conclave)		Papacy would be now vacant as of Pope Benedict’s resignation, (assuming a valid resignation)	For the Laity: Pray for a new Pope soon. Talk/Write to your Bishop. Write to The Papal Nuncio, (Papal Ambassador), in your country	Call a valid Conclave and select a new Pope	Church returns to last known “good state” All Bergoglio’s actions were invalid so are null and void.   New Pope formally excommunicates all involved	Not the Pope, so he has none of the protections afforded the holder of the Papal Office. Enemy of Christ and his Church	Bergoglio would have been literally at war with Jesus Christ (with Christ’s foreknowledge) so he could not be the Head of Christ’s Church as he had left the Church “latae sententiae ipso facto”
9	Material Heresy by Francis/ Bergoglio (Since March 2013)	After becoming Pope	(Assuming that the papacy was empty prior to the conclave)	A heretic has himself chosen to leave the Church, (“latae sententiae ipso facto”). A Pope who is a  Material Heretic has resigned the office ipso facto and has left the Church	The Papal Office would now be vacant and would have been from the moment Bergoglio manifested heresy. Heretic. (There is no requirement for anybody in the Church to judge him as he does this himself. When he chose heresy he chose to resign and leave the Church	For the Laity: Pray for a new Pope soon. Talk/Write to your Bishop. Write to The Papal Nuncio, (Papal Ambassador), in your country	Call a valid Conclave and select a new Pope	Church returns to last known “good state”   All of Bergoglio’s /Francis’ actions after manifesting heresy were invalid so are null and void.   The question then is when did he first manifest heresy (i.e. chose to be a Manifest Heretic?	Not the Pope, so Francis does not have the protections afforded the holder of the Papal Office

Final Thoughts:

Possibly the most pressing issue is that most, if not all, of the major institutions of the Church are controlled by cardinals who either attempted to remove Pope Benedict from Office, and/or helped to put Bergoglio/Francis where he is now, or by men who have been made cardinals since then and were approved by him. The legitimate authorities in Rome whom the bishops or lay faithful would normally petition for help appear to have fallen under control of those who are either faithless hirelings who are afraid of Bergoglio/Francis and/or wolves masquerading as shepherds. 

 

I implore all the faithful, both clergy and laity, to look at the state of the Church and to consider, reflect and pray over each of the theories proposed above. The current crisis in the Church must be addressed, now because it is creating scandal and souls are being lost. In order to do this we must determine whether Bergoglio/ Francis’ papacy is valid, and if it is not, elect a new Pope.
