To: BlatherNaut; SGNA

Blather says, “An example of true hypocrisy is the sedevacantist habit of trotting out St. Bellarmine as a voice of authority, yet rejecting his opinion that it would be licit to resist, but illicit to “judge, punish or depose” a pontiff, since his only superior is God.”

The “licit to resist” quote that anti-sedes like to trot out against the sedes refers to resisting a (true) pope who gives immoral commands (as SGNA explained so well). It does not refer to a non-pope who teaches heresy to the Church. Bellarmine teaches that such a “pope” loses his office ipso facto.

I just want to mention I’m looted in my responses even though it’s been two weeks.
