SSPV isn't SVist, but based upon positive doubt surrounding the status of the papacy--impinging moral obligations upon our consciences on the one hand while the absence of the Church's authoritative declaration forbidding us from declaring SVism as though we were that authority on the other--the SSPV doesn't acknowledge the post-conciliar papacy's divine authority until that doubt is removed and all the conditions necessary to establish their papacies as dogmatic facts are present. In this sense they are more sede-agnostic than SVist, though they are often lumped together with SVists because they reject all communion with the Novus Ordo and do not proclaim the post-conciliar popes to be true Popes, even in the Canon. I don't know if that counts, but if it does, they have 15, 16 this summer.

Good point, I wasn't sure whether to add them in, but I think it makes sense to do that. Among sedevacantist s there is also a split between "Bellarmine" pure Sedevacantists, and Guerardarian "Material-Formal" adherents, but I also lumped them all together for convenience.
Pacelli - Since I am a novice, would you mind explaining what the difference is between "Bellarmine" and "Guerardarian" Sedevacantists?? Thanks.
Veronica, I am sure Pacelli will give a nice definition for you but you reminded me of a thread from the Bellarmine forums on the matter. What I would draw your attention to are the posts by John Daly. Here

The "Material-Formal" thesis was developed by Fr. Guerard des Lauriers, to deal with the problem of apostolic succession as applied to sedevacantism. He posited that the papal claimants were material successors but not able to be formal successors due to the obstacle, which was their lack of Faith.
I think he meant well, but in my opinion what he created was a mess, the position is a novelty, and is not grounded in traditional Catholic theology. To make matters worse, this position is today held by many who are dug into this view, with no apparent way of helping them out of it.
When an office is vacant, it is vacant. The person who does not hold the office, but has assumed the office is a usurper. His presence does not in any way continue the succession, not even materially. He has no relationship with the office, other than the fact that he is usurping it.
It is true that if a heretical antipope had a radical conversion, and became a Catholic, and if the Roman clergy and hierarchy continued to accept his claim, he would by that become Pope by acclamation. In the time prior to this, however, the man was nothing but a usurper, his unlawful possession of the office did not continue the succession, he was a thief and a robber.

The usurper descriptor is in my opinion the most accurate and usefull term for Bergoglio....if we could all think of what is going on as usurpation...we could find common actions and opinions on what can and needs to be done.
To hold the office of Pope is vacant due to heresy or death is utterly Catholic and within the Churchs teachings....to hold a dead man or heretic can hold the office is insanity and not Catholic at all ANON
I have put together a list of all bishops and priests who are part of sedevacantist groups and also all independent bishops and priests in the US and Canada. I think the list is at least close to accurate and up to date. If anyone notices that I forgot a priest or if a priest belongs in a different category, let me know and I will fix it. If you don't want your name used, just PM me, and it will be kept confidential.
FYI: by naming these bishops and priests, I am giving the readers of this forum raw data, I am not saying that all of these men are properly ordained as priests or for bishops that they are truly consecrated as bishops. In regards to many of these bishops and priests, there is little publicly known about them, or where their orders come from.

So what is the official status of all these "Priests"?

wanthon58: Fr. Anthony Leonardo is at the Shrine of Christ the King in Winfield, IL and said he was ordained in 2009 by Bishop Slupski in Illinois. I hope you can verify and confirm this and that he is a valid priest. I look forward to seeing your reply. Thank you
Jan 8, 2024 11:16:16 GMT -5
wanthon58: Also, he now reports to Bishop Joseph Mascek who he said is in New York. Is this valid and ok?
Jan 8, 2024 11:18:18 GMT -5
Concerned: Unfortunately, Bp. Slupksi jumbled up the essential from when consecrating Paul Petko (see here: youtu.be/Wl-Fxv5W9J4?si=XS5xyD4r4h9FoxMX). I would hold any ordinations and consecrations of Bp. Slupski to be suspect without videographic proof.

Concerned: The lineage of Joseph Macek is considered suspect by many.

Lisa: would fit be possible to list locations of chapel, so when traveling or considering moving one might be easier able to find a chapel, thank you and God bless you for keeping this list

Pacelli: Regarding Sedevacantist chapels, I would urge much more caution. Some are safe others are not. Generally speaking, most CMRI priests are safe.
