Well, even if you didn’t mention the current situation, you made your previous reply in response to his question about the current situation. So I think that’s why he asked it again…That is twice you have asked that question, and I didn’t even mention the current situation.
He actually does know what it is, but his evaluation is different from ours. So he wants us to define it so that he can pursue his argument based on what we say it is. Now that I defined it in post #154, we’ll see what he has to say.But if you do not know what it is, I will explain it.
It’s a strange notion indeed. If sedevacantism were true there’s no reason to be Catholic. You’d have to be an incredibly well-educated and infallible person who can judge which of his teachers is faithful to the teachings of Christ. I thought that’s why we had a Teaching Church led by an infallible head: because we’re fallible and that would be an impossible and illogical task for us, the Taught Church.the strange notion that their is no pope, perhaps the most anti-Catholic of all possibilities. The papacy is the one doctrine that is most distinctly Catholic.
If sedevacantism were true, I wouldn’t be a Catholic. I’d be a theist who believes 1) all religions are equally pleasing to God, 2) there is no true religion, or 3) there’s no way to know which is the true religion. Because one of the main reasons the Catholic Church is indefectible is because the pope is infallible–for our sake since we’re not infallible.
Okay, I’m done ranting…
