RLE Considers_Episode 8__The Always is also a Forever__Part 1 of 2

Roberto, sure...I'd be happy to review a video if that is easier for you. Just want to be sure...I sent you an email? did you get that? If so, you can forward your email to that account. You might want to check my blog, where I have a whole series of articles which have address Dr. Mazza's ever-changing theory regarding Benepapism. On the thesis you are proposing, please see my multi-article response to Dr. Mazza's first appearances on Taylor Marshall's program, wherein he proposed the theory you appear to be suggesting. My response was in four parts...with the last having lings to the prior parts. Please see: ghttps://romalocutaest.com/2020..../06/11/addendum-norm The problem for your theory is that the Petrine primacy is linked to the See of Rome. If nothing else, this is clear in the papal legislation governing conclaves (e.g., Universi Domini Gregis, Normas Nonnullas), and in canon law. In accepting one's election as "supreme pontiff", one becomes bishop of Rome, and true pope, with supreme power over the Church. One entails the other. See UDG 88: "After his acceptance, the person elected, if he has already received episcopal ordination, is immediately Bishop of the Church of Rome, true Pope and Head of the College of Bishops. He thus acquires and can exercise full and supreme power over the universal Church." If Benedict intended to somehow keep the latter powers, he would have needed to amend the conclave rules to that effect. But he did not. Anyway....I look forward to your video. God bless, Steve.

Roberto, thanks for your comment. I would happy to correspond with you regarding your theory. I don't see your email in your comment, but you can find mine on my blog (www.RomaLocutaEst.com). I'll check out your blog and see if I can find your email there. Still, feel free to email me. Now, as to your theory, without knowing what it is you are suggesting (I'll check out your site)-- I suspect I probably have heard it along the way. My book and videos have centered mostly on the two "standard" theories, popularized by the likes of Ann Barnhardt, Estefania Acosta, and Andrea Cionci. But, I do touch upon other theories in my book and articles (e.g., the notion that Benedict resigned only as bishop of Rome, but not the Petrine munus). This theory was once advanced by Dr. Mazza, for example, but he seems to have backed away from it . Anyway, thanks for taking the time to comment. I'll check out your site, and see if I can find your email there. As said, in the meantime...feel free to check out my blog and find my email there. Looking forward to chatting with you. God bless. Steve
