Way to completely miss the antecedent, LifeSite. The very first thing required for a man to be validly elected Pope is that the SEE BE VACANT.

And the See obviously was NOT vacant in ARSH 2013 when Pope Benedict announced that he was half-quitting only the ministry of the active governance of the Church, while remaining within the enclosure of St. Peter as the praying, suffering Pope.

Abject nonsense, technically called “Substantial Error” in canon law, thus rendering the attempted resignation invalid by the law itself.

So long as this full truth of the situation, all the way down to the foundation, the fact that Pope Benedict never validly resigned, is ignored, nothing will get better. St. Peter’s basilica will become THE global faggot wedding destination, and the Church Militant will be reduced to a few people in hiding.

Daniel chapter 9 is current events. The abomination of desolation in the temple is probably the open blessing of sodomy in the Petrine Basilica.

All because NO ONE will simply acknowledge what has been completely visible all along, and at this point, it is utterly incomprehensible why there is this ubiquitous paralysis and pathological refusal to even ask the question: did anything WEIRD, ODD, or UNPRECEDENTED happen in February ARSH 2013 that might have resulted in an Antipope?

Why is this one obvious question, the question whose answer leads instantly to the truth, the only question that STILL cannot be asked? It’s absolutely irrational. But, I guess that’s what the love of money and human respect does to men – it makes them irrational.

Gentlemen, your slips are showing. It’s embarrassing.

Well, for starters, the See has to be VACANT. Which it wasn’t in March of ARSH 2013. The See remained occupied by Pope Benedict XVI until his death 382 days ago, whether he liked it or not.

Can. 359 When the Apostolic See is vacant, the college of cardinals possesses only that power in the Church which is attributed to it in special law.

Can. 359 — Sede Apostolica vacante, Cardinalium Collegium ea tantum in Ecclesia gaudet potestate, quae in peculiari lege eidem tribuitur.

Folks, the very first clause is the punchline in this situation: WHEN THE APOSTOLIC SEE IS VACANT.

What this Canon does is 100% prohibit and utterly nullify ANY conclave convened while the Petrine See is STILL OCCUPIED, that is, NOT VACANT – no matter what the circumstance, including totally unprecedented circumstances, such as the situation of Pope Benedict XVI Ratzinger trying to partially resign only the administrative/governance ministerio, and “expand” the Petrine Office into a “collegial, synodal, shared ministry”.
