Is Sedevacantism Really Untenable?

On this episode of What Catholics Believe, Tom and Fr. Jenkins return to the email inbox and discuss:  • Why is no one commenting on or seems to be concerned that Abp. Viganò is in hiding for fear of his life.  • The illogic of Peter Kwasniewski’s article, “Why the troubles of this pontificate do not point to sedevacantism”  • Michael Matt’s wrong statement, ‘the problem isn’t modernism but apostasy!’  • How is Pius X’s reform of the Breviary (Divino afflatu) any different from the reforms of the Novus Ordo?

Ettore Fr. Jenkins comments on the speech of Ettore Gotti Tedeschi

Fr. Jenkins reads an article from LifeSiteNews, ‘Former Vatican Bank chief: Authors of New World Order demographic collapse influencing the Vatican’ which covers Ettore Gotti Tedeschi’s talk, “The Rejection of Life: a Demographic Catastrophe for mankind” at a 21 May 2018 conference of the John Paul II Academy for Human Life and the Family.  Father’s commentary and analysis follows.  The article can be read here and Tedeschi’s talk viewed here.
