Sometimes I wonder if the R&R people even read their own literature. They have been saying for more than half a century that the Church must judge a heretical pope, that he must be deposed, that the cardinals and bishops must warn him, and excommunicate him if he doesn't repent.
Well, here we are, we have a member of what the R&R people claim is the hierarchy, who seems to recognize a little bit of the problem and who even has gone so far as to say that Bergoglio is a heretic.
So where is the trial? Where is the excommunication? Why isn't Vigano making public appeals to all the cardinals and bishops of the Novus Ordo church to call a council and do what both of the only two theologians the R&R people can find say has to be done, to put a heretical pope and notice and depose him?
Why has nobody in the R&R crowd even mentioned this? Why hasn't Vigano mentioned it?
People have said that the vast majority of the hierarchy would side with Bergoglio. This is probably true, but then they fall under the same condemnation as Bergoglio, and are likewise outside the Church once they are all excommunicated. If a pope can be deposed by the Church, then still more can the lower clergy who are in cahoots with him be excommunicated.
The Church is not a matter of numbers. If there are only four or five cardinals who have the Faith, and no pope, then those people are the Church. Bergoglio can have thousands of bishops and a hundred cardinals, but if they are all heretics and excommunicated by the five cardinals who have the Faith, then they are nothing more than heretics dressed in red or white.
That's my answer. When Vigano says "We need all the cardinals or bishops in the Novus Ordo church to get together, warn Bergoglio, and depose him when he refuses to repent, and restore the hierarchy," that's when I'll take him seriously.
And when the R&R people start holding Vigano accountable for his failure to do this, that's when I'll take those people seriously too. This is their position, after all, let them follow it out.
