EVIDENCE ITEMS
1) The term “pope emeritus” has no precedent and is confusing
2) Pope Benedict XVI seems to have resigned only part of the papacy, the active ministerium, not the office or munus of the papacy
3) Pope Benedict’s longtime personal secretary Archbishop Georg Gänswein has made statements that appear to affirm Benedict’s continued papal identity
4) Pope Benedict’s correct form of address is still “Your Holiness”
5) There are at least three errors in the official Latin “declaratio” read by Pope Benedict on February 11th 2013 which would render the document invalid.
6) “Universal peaceful acceptance by the Church of Francis has never really occurred.
7) The canonically illegal behavior of the St. Gallen Mafia cardinals in conspiring to vote in their man from Buenos Aires in 2013 invalidates the Conclave.
* Catholics who refuse to even consider this evidence are forced to defend and domesticate the worst pope in history
* Catholics, especially conservative or traditional-minded ones, are in an abusive relationship with a passive-aggressive dictator
* The list of the evils and diabolical confusions perpetrated by Bergoglio is long, comprehensive, and disturbing
* The bottom line: Pope Benedict XVI is a wise and holy man who, in the end, really didn’t want to be Pope.
* He repeatedly asked Pope John Paul II to allow him to retire as prefect of the Congregation of the Doctrine of the Faith.
* In his very first homily as Roman Pontiff, Benedict XVI asked for prayers that “he might not flee out of fear of the wolves.”
* Maybe he didn’t flee the wolves. Maybe he outfoxed them.
