Archbishop Viganò: I accuse
Bergoglio of heresy and schism
Archbishop Carlo
Maria Viganò argues that he is not in schism with the Catholic Church and
accuses ‘Jorge Maria Bergoglio of heresy and schism,’ requesting that he be
‘removed from the throne which he has unworthily occupied for over 11 years.’
Editor’s note: The following essay is the
full English translation of a statement from Archbishop Carlo
Maria Viganò in response to the charge of schism from the Vatican’s Dicastery
for the Doctrine of the Faith, published in Italian on June 28, 2024.
‘But even if we or an angel from heaven
Should preach to you a gospel other than the one that
we preached to you,
let that one be accursed.
As we have said before, and now I say again,
if anyone preaches to you a gospel other than the one
that you received,
let him be anathema.’ — Gal 1:8-9
(LifeSiteNews) — “When I think that we are
in the palace of the Holy Office, which is the exceptional witness of the
Tradition and of the defense of the Catholic Faith, I cannot stop myself from
thinking that I am at home, and that it is me, whom you call ‘the
traditionalist,’ who should judge you.” So spoke Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre in
1979, when he was summoned to the former Holy Office, in the presence of the
prefect, Cardinal Franjo Šeper, and two other prelates.
Lionel : Yes but the liberals
cite Vatican Council II ( irrational) which supports liberalism and makes
Tradition obsolete. This has to be pointed out. The issue of Vatican Council II
( rational ) has to be discussed.
______________________
As I stated in my communiqué of June 20, I do not
recognize the authority of the tribunal that claims to judge me, nor of its
prefect, nor of the one who appointed him. This decision of mine, which is
certainly painful, is not the result of haste or a spirit of rebellion; but rather
is dictated by the moral necessity which, as bishop and successor of the
apostles, obliges me in conscience to bear witness to the truth, that is, to
God Himself, to Our Lord Jesus Christ.
Lionel: True but the tribunal is called because of
Vatican Council II ( irrational), which support liberalism and rejects
Tradition. So this point needs to be debated in public.There is a Vatican
Council II ( rational) which makes the liberalism of the tribunal obsolete. The
liberals are then outside the Catholic Church.
_____________________________
I face this trial with the determination that comes
from knowing that I have no reason to consider myself separate from communion
with the Holy Church and with the papacy, which I have always served with
filial devotion and fidelity. I could not conceive of a single moment of my
life outside this one Ark of Salvation, which providence has constituted as the
Mystical Body of Christ, in submission to its Divine Head and to His vicar on
earth.
Lionel: True but with Vatican
Council II ( irrational) you are outside the Church. The Council interpreted
only irrationally is a rejection of Tradition. The deception has not been dealt
with in this article.
________________________________
The enemies of the Catholic Church fear the power of
grace which works through the sacraments, and above all the power of the Holy
Mass, a terrible katechon which frustrates many of their
efforts and wins to God so many souls who would otherwise be damned. And it is
precisely this awareness of the power of the supernatural action of the
Catholic priesthood in society that lies at the origin of their fierce
hostility to tradition.
Lionel : They can oppose
Tradition only because the issue of Vatican Council II rational and irrational
is not discussed.

Satan and his minions know full well what a threat the
one true Church poses to their antichristic plan. These subversives – whom the
Roman pontiffs have courageously denounced as enemies of God, the Church, and
humanity – are identifiable in the inimica vis, Freemasonry. It has
infiltrated the hierarchy and succeeded in making it lay down the spiritual
weapons at its disposal, opening the doors of the citadel to the enemy in the
name of dialogue and universal brotherhood,
concepts that are intrinsically Masonic. But the Church, following the example
of her Divine Founder, does not dialogue with Satan: She fights him.
Lionel: Archbishop Vigano interprets Vatican Council II irrationally and not rationally. The Masons do the same.
The causes of the
present crisis
As Romano Amerio pointed out in his seminal
essay Iota Unum, this cowardly and culpable surrender began with
the convocation of the Second Vatican Ecumenical Council and with the underground
and highly organized action of clergymen and laity linked to the Masonic sects,
aimed at slowly but surely subverting the structure of government and
magisterium of the Church in order to demolish Her from within.
Lionel: Romano Amerio
interpreted Vatican Council II irrationally like the DDF and Pope Francis. No
one told him him that the Council could be interpreted rationally and so in harmony
with Tradition.
_____________
It is useless to look for other reasons: the documents
of the secret sects demonstrate the existence of an infiltration plan conceived
in the 19th century and carried out
a century later, exactly in the terms in which it was conceived. Similar
processes of dissolution had previously taken place in the civil sphere, and it
is no coincidence that the popes were able to grasp in the uprisings and wars
that bloodied the European nations the disintegrating work of international
Freemasonry.
Since the council, the Church has thus become the
bearer of the revolutionary principles of 1789, as some of the proponents of
Vatican II have admitted, and as is confirmed by the appreciation on the part
of the Lodges for all the popes of the council and of the post-conciliar
period, precisely because of the implementation of changes that the Freemasons
had long called for.
Lionel: This can be changed when Archbishop Vigano
accepts Vatican Council II rationally. He then needs to ask the DDF to do the
same.
______________________________
Change – or better still, aggiornamento –
has been so much at the center of the conciliar narrative that it has been the
hallmark of Vatican II and has posited this assembly as the terminus
post quem that sanctions the end of the ancien régime –
the regime of the “old religion,” of the “old Mass,” of the “pre-council” – and
the beginning of the “conciliar church,” with its “new mass” and the substantial
relativization of all dogma.
Lionel: Irrespective of what was said or done at
Vatican Council II, when the Council is interpreted rationally the Council
becomes traditional. This is an important point.
_____________________________
Among the proponents of this revolution appear the
names of those who, until the pontificate of John XXIII, had been condemned and
removed from teaching because of their heterodoxy. The list is long and also
includes Ernesto Buonaiuti, the excommunicated vitandus, a friend
of Roncalli, who died unrepentant in heresy, and whom just a few days ago the
president of the Italian Bishops’ Conference, Cardinal Matteo Zuppi,
commemorated with a Mass in the cathedral of Bologna, as reported with ill-concealed emphasis
by Il Faro di Roma:
Almost eighty years later, a cardinal who is
completely in line with the Pope is starting again with a liturgical gesture
that has in all respects the flavor of rehabilitation. Or at least a first step
in that direction.
Lionel. This
liberalism is possible because of Vatican Council II, irrational.

The Church and the
antichurch
I am therefore summoned before the tribunal that has
taken the place of the Holy Office to be tried for schism, while the head of
the Italian bishops – identified as being among the papabili and
“completely in line with the Pope” – is illicitly celebrating a Mass of
suffrage for one of the worst and most obstinate exponents of Modernism,
against whom the Church – the one from which according to them I am separated –
had pronounced the most severe sentence of condemnation.
Lionel. Cardinal Zuppi can defend his liberalism with
Vatican Council II irrational. This is not contested in this article. Vatican
Council II , rational is not cited.
