Guide to True Catholicism:

If…, then…

A Logical, Theological, and Practical Roadmap for Seeking the True Catholic Faith

1. The Papacy and the Heresy of Jorge Bergoglio (“Francis”)

  • IF Christ established Peter and his successors to teach the faith infallibly (Matthew 16:18; Luke 22:32),

    THEN any man who publicly teaches heresy cannot be a true pope (Pastor Aeternus, Vatican I).


  • IF a pope cannot be a heretic (De Romano Pontifice, St. Robert Bellarmine),

    THEN any claimant who promotes heresy is not a true pope.


  • IF Jorge Bergoglio (Francis) has publicly taught religious pluralism, religious indifferentism, and doctrinal evolution,

    THEN he has forfeited the papacy (Cum Ex Apostolatus Officio, Pope Paul IV).


  • IF the pope is divinely protected from officially teaching heresy,

    THEN a pope cannot promulgate errors as doctrine (Satis Cognitum, Pope Leo XIII).


  • If  Vatican I defined that no pope can change doctrine,

    THEN Francis’s approval of heresies proves he is not a pope.


Refuting Objection: "But the Church must always have a pope!"

Response: The Church has had sede vacante (no pope) periods before:

  1. 3-year interregnum after Pope Clement IV (1268-1271).

  2. The Great Western Schism (1378-1417) had multiple claimants.

  3. Pope Paul IV taught that a heretic could never be validly elected.


Conclusion: A sede vacante period is possible, and it is happening now.



2. The Errors of Vatican II and the Crisis of Authority

  • IF Vatican II contradicts prior infallible Church teachings (e.g., religious liberty, collegiality, ecumenism),

    THEN it must be rejected (Dei Filius, Vatican I).


  • IF Vatican II promotes errors previously condemned (e.g., religious liberty contradicts Quanta Cura),

    THEN it is a false council.


  • IF the Church is protected by the Holy Ghost from teaching error,

    THEN Vatican II, which led to mass apostasy, was not guided by the Holy Ghost.


  • IF Vatican II’s “popes” imposed new doctrines contrary to past infallible teachings,

    THEN they were not true popes.


Refuting Objection: "Vatican II was just a pastoral council"

Response: Vatican II’s decrees were officially imposed on the Church, making them binding in the Vatican II sect. A true Catholic council cannot teach error.


Conclusion: Vatican II is an apostate council imposed by false popes.



3. The Novus Ordo Mass and the Destruction of Catholic Worship

  • IF the New Mass (Novus Ordo Missae) was designed by Protestants and removed sacrificial language,

    THEN it is a non-Catholic liturgy (Quo Primum, Pope St. Pius V).


  • IF the Catholic Church forbids changing the sacred liturgy,

    THEN the creation of a new Mass is a grave violation of divine law.


  • IF the Novus Ordo rite of ordination removed necessary sacramental words,

    THEN post-1968 ordinations are invalid (Apostolicae Curae, Pope Leo XIII).


  • IF the modern bishops and priests are ordained in a defective rite,

    THEN they do not have valid sacraments.


Refuting Objection: "But the New Mass can still be valid!"

Response: The Catholic Church never imposed a new, radically changed liturgy on the faithful before Vatican II. The New Mass’s lack of Catholic doctrine makes it doubtful at best.


Conclusion: Catholics must reject the New Mass and only attend valid pre-Vatican II Masses.



4. What Must Catholics Do? The Roadmap to True Catholicism


Step 1: Reject the Vatican II Sect Completely

  1. Recognize that Vatican II and its “popes” are not Catholic.

  2. Stop attending the New Mass (Novus Ordo), which is Protestantized and doubtful.

  3. Reject all Vatican II doctrines as false teachings.


Step 2: Find Valid Sacraments & True Catholic Clergy

  1. Seek out traditional sedevacantist clergy ordained in the pre-1968 rite.

  2. Attend only the traditional Latin Mass (pre-1955 rubrics).

  3. Receive sacraments only from validly ordained priests.


Step 3: Educate Yourself in the True Faith

  1. Study pre-Vatican II catechisms (e.g., Baltimore Catechism, Roman Catechism of Trent).

  2. Read papal encyclicals from true popes (e.g., Mortalium Animos, Quanta Cura).

  3. Learn about the errors of Vatican II and the modernist infiltration.


Step 4: Live a True Catholic Life

  1. Pray the Rosary daily and entrust yourself to the Blessed Virgin Mary.

  2. Follow traditional devotions (e.g., First Fridays, First Saturdays, devotion to the Sacred Heart).

  3. Prepare for persecution as a remnant Catholic in the possibly the end times.



5. What Does the Future Hold? Trusting in God’s Plan

  • IF we live in the Great Apostasy foretold in Scripture (2 Thessalonians 2:3-4),

    THEN we must remain faithful and expect divine intervention.


  • IF the sedevacantist position is the only logical and theological conclusion,

    THEN Catholics must embrace it fully.


  • IF God has allowed this crisis,

    THEN He will restore His Church in His time (Matthew 28:20: “I am with you always, even to the end of the world”).


  • IF we remain faithful to true Catholic doctrine,

    THEN we will receive the eternal reward promised to the Church's faithful remnant (Apocalypse 3:11: “Hold fast to what thou hast, that no man take thy crown”).
