"Christendom has had a series of revolutions and in each one of them Christianity has died. Christianity has died many times and risen again; for it had a God who knew the way out of the grave." -GK Chesterton

Sorry, if you think Benedict was Catholic and Pope, you have no idea where the Catholic Church is.

She is in eclipse, A tiny remnant. No pope since 1958.

a non Catholic can't become pope. Dude, we're in Great apostasy.

You didn’t really make an argument. Just a brief comment. Fortunately, I’m familiar with VII sedevacantism. I’ve studied the issue. I don’t agree with you. So I didn’t think it was worth arguing over.

Fine. I couldn't convert you. A secondary goal is to help wipe out Invincible Ignorance argument, your final judgement.

You're attacking Holy Mother Church and Papacy.

Enjoy your Final judgement

Your efforts to save my soul were subpar at best. I love the Church and am doing my best within my means. I do not trust my own judgment as much as I trust God. I cannot know every detail of political Rome, but I can pursue virtue and fidelity insofar as I am able. I recall with some relief that some canonized saints were on the wrong side of schism. So there is hope for me still… and also for you. Thanks be to God that you are not my judge.

I wanted to engage you with2 bold statements to see if you wanted to engage You kinda shut me down.

I'd spend as much time as you'd like... But won't be pushy..

No schism here. The Catholic Church is one. You are in a false church submitting to an idolator, full of false dogma, A sacrilegious bastard masd

I'm not your judge.

I'm reminding you it's very serious, and you will face God... In no way am I judging you.

Let me know if you do ever want to talk about any if this... I have pitiful substack.

Peace.. I don't want to bother you
