With the suggestion that John XXIII, Paul VI and John Paul II were not valid popes, you are making Marcel Lefebvre look sane, rational and Catholic, relatively speaking, which is not an easy task.

Since every cardinal-elector, now living, has been appointed by one of these three popes whose credentials you seem to challenge, how will you reconstitute the papacy? Vox populi? Acclamation by the people of Rome (who regularly elect atheist and communist mayors?)??? Some other method? Please specify to enlighten the poor benighted followers of Pope John Paul II.

Also, let's hear the specifics of any heresies which you attribute to John XXIII, Paul VI or JP II PRIOR to their respective papacies. Otherwise, may we conclude that your idea of "the abomination of desolation" is a pope or three who steadfastly refuse to cater to your tastes in rubrics, style, governance or whatever? Is there a significance to the photo of JP II???? Are those rabbis in the picture? Do you find that relevant?
