More from Conversations on the Crisis
John joins Louie to tackle viewer questions focusing on the No Una Cum position challenging the claim that naming a false pope in the canon renders a Mass non‑Catholic or that Catholics holding the sedevacantist position are forbidden to attend such masses. Drawing on theology, canon law, and historical cases—from St. Vincent Ferrer to the English Reformation—Lane argues the issue is a modern novelty, not a traditional teaching. He explains why presence at such a Mass does not imply consent to error, why the faithful are not required to resolve papal legitimacy in confusing times. He also discusses his position in relation to groups like the SSPX, FSSP and the broader crisis in the Church. As Lane puts it, “It’s a non‑issue… and it can only be built up to appear to be an issue by vague rhetoric" and emotional arguments that cloud right reason.
