Viganò Rejects Defense Against Schism Accusation

Archbishop Carlo Maria Viganò did not respond to the summons to the Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith. He will not face the trial on suspicion of schism, he said in a statement published on Saturday on ExurgeDomine.it.

Reports that Archbishop Viganò presented himself at the Vatican for the beginning of his trial on June 20 were "completely false".

This fake news was briefly spread by the pro-homosexual Jesuits’ AmericaMagazine.org but it corrected itself.

Viganò: "I therefore wish to make it clear that I did not go to the Vatican [June 20], and that I have no intention of going to the Holy Office on June 28, and that I have not delivered any statement or document in my defense to the Dicastery, whose authority I do not recognize, nor do I recognize the authority of its Prefect, nor do I recognize the authority of the one who appointed him."

And, "I have no intention of submitting myself to a show trial in which those who are supposed to judge me impartially in order to defend Catholic orthodoxy are at the same time those whom I accuse of heresy, treason, and abuse of power."

In his statement Viganò repeats his believe: "Bergoglio’s ‘church’ is not the Catholic Church, but rather that ‘conciliar church’ born from Vatican Council II and recently rebranded with the no less heretical name of ‘synodal church.’ If it is from this ‘church’ that I am declared to be separated by schism, it will be for me a cause for honor and pride."

Since Viganò is not acting himself, the dicastery will appoint a public defender for him.

I've noticed that no one has come forward in support of the Vatican/Pope Francis is this , but on this site and even in the media, people are standing up for and cheering for Vigano!!

Vigano', is letting the Bergoglian pagan clan, keep and hold on to the Vatican and all its riches; moreover Vigano' is letting 'undisturbed' Bergoglio, Tucho and unholy company of globalist circus stay in power indefinitely. Why? you might ask? Well, it is SO CLEAR: Vigano' wants to build his own 'church' of sedevacantists aka traditionalists and this is the way to go about achieving his goal! This would even be 'acceptable' if only Vigano' was really HONEST IN WANTING TO SAVE THE CATHOLIC CHURCH of the billion Catholics around the world... but he's only interested in LEADING his NEW 'VIGANO' CHURCH, while abandoning the rest of the catholics in the ....'valley of tears' that is the novus ordo/Bergoglian circus. Vigano' could've rally saved the Millenial Catholic Church , by responding to the 'schism accusation'; Vigano', with all its cardinal power could have CALLED FOR A VERIFICATION OF THE 2013 CONCLAVE, whereby Bergoglio would've resulted 'null and void' and Benedict XVI would be recognized as 'impeded in his Ministerium'. But Vigano' rejects all the Popes from John XXIII to Benedict; to Vigano' THEY are all "modernist". What terrible 'uncharity' on the part of Vigano'!! He's just another power-grabbing prelate...caring more about his own 'status', than the ....sheep left to be eaten by the wolves! Bergoglio and Vigano'....are they really DIFFERENT? No, not for the 'Salvation' of the Catholic Church and the majority of the Catholics. Bergoglio and Vigano'...they're just seekers of power and control... in any way they can get it! What a travesty! Vigano', what a disappointment! We knew that the Bergoglian clan was anti-Church ...but now you have proven to be just as anti-Catholic Roman (Petrine) Church!! 😲

Nonsense
Christopher Shahrazade
Yes, nonsense. Vugano might be willing to build a new CAtholic Church, but it's to save the CAtholic Church. At 83, it's not for himself. He's concerned for the Church. Many people, especially in Italy, already look to him as a sort of substitute-pope. I would follow him before I'd think of anything Francis and his gays dictate.

By the way, I looed at Francis' Angelus address today on YouTube, his weekly appearance from his window to the faithful. He seemed none too good. Not as lively or animated as he sometimes is, coughed several times, and took huge deep gasps occasionally.
Don't be surprised if he's sick again...or something is building up in him again.

The Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith wants to use canon 1364 to sanction Viganò but refuses to use the same canon against the heresies of Francis, Fernández and others?
Christopher Shahrazade
The Prefect of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith would never use canon 1364 against himself...........which is what he would have to do.
Tony M
Archbishop Vigano towers over all of the various commentators who are blathering about him at this time. They, and also including myself, are peanuts compared to him. He has all the qualities that would make him a perfect Pope for these times. There is no Bishop, Archbishop, or Cardinal in the hierarchy that I trust more than I trust the Great Archbishop Vigano!!!!
Tony M
Amazing how many commentators are being so overexactingly (albeit erroneously) critical of Archbishop Vigano....but remain negligently tolerant of all Bergoglio has done over the last 11 years!!!

Which is the more probable.....that the great, holy, erudite, wise, heroically courageous, orthodox Archbishop Vigano has fabricated this allegation against Bergoglio and is lying........or that Pachamama worshipping, serial, manifest, pertinaceous, formal, public heretic, and Catholic Church destroying Jorge Mario Bergoglio is guilty of what the good Archbishop accuses him???

Hero!
Christopher Shahrazade
Very true description of the great Archbishop Vigano. I hope that millions of Catholics, and thousands of convents,monasteries and other traditional institutions brutalized by Pope Francis' heretical homo agenda and his goons flock to Archbishop Vigano. He is already looked to as a "substitute pope" by many.

hopefully He will not say una cum mass!

I think he don't said it in a while.

YES!!!!!!!!!! wHY ELSE WOULD THIS HAPPEN SO FAST, AFTER YEARS OF SAYING NOTHING TO OR ABOUT OR THREATENING VIGANO? I BELIEVE THAT VIGANO HAS SOMETHING REALLY BAD UP HIS SLEEVE ABOUT BERGOGLIO, AND IF PUSHED TOO FAR, WILL SPILL EVERYTHING. IT WILL DESTROY NOT ONLY THE PONTIFICATE OF BERGOGLIO, BUT THE CARERS AND FUTURE OF ALL CARDIANLS, BISHOPS, AND ASSOCIATES OF HIM...ESPECIALLY THOSE WHO WERE MOST SUPPORTIVE OF BERGOGLIO (AKA POPE FRANCIS).
I REALLY THINK THAT POPE FRANCIS' DAYS ARE NUMBERED IN THE PHYSICAL SENSE, AND IF VIGANO REVEALS OR PRODUCES WITNESSES REGARDING BERGOGLIO'S ABUSES AS A JESUIT NOVICE MASTER, THAT WOULD BE THE END OF BERGOGLIO, HIS PEOPLE, AND HIS "VISION" FOR THE CHURCH.
The new Pope will repudiate and distance himself from everything Pope Francis decreed, pronounced, or the people he appointed. tucho can spend the rest of his career as a homeless street priest in the slums of Buenos Aires.
Klaus Elmar Müller
Pope Francis wants honorary primacy among all Christian schismatics. Bergolio = Vigano's honorary primate... But I can understand the Pope, because Vigano's unsubstantiated accusation that Bergoglo was an abuser really went too far.
Ivan Tomas
Only if not credible.

Which can results in "live hem alone"..., at least for now.
Klaus Elmar Müller
@Ivan Tomas Vigano's accusation is so serious and outrageous that one cannot speculate publicly without clear evidence! You would then quickly end up on the side of the slanderers, which can be a mortal sin.
Ivan Tomas
Klaus, Vigano called out and fought the most powerfull sodomite McCarrick. Without tireless effort and enormous courage of Vigano, that very dangerous job will not be done. Even while McCarrick was a sodomite perpetrator, predator for 4,5 decades.

Where are his other brothers bishops? Does they have any contact with each other and especially Vigano about that particular matter?
Don't you think Vigano approached some of them and gave them some more information and evidences?
But, if they don't dare...
Could he not be traying to get some of them more courageous to enjoy this most important battle of their and our lives?
And what else does he have?
What options?
Remember Athanasius the Great and his struggles...

Thank God that the good archbishop did not go into this nest of vipers, and that he clearly distinguishes the Catholic Church from the conciliar-synodal sect parasitic in its bosom!

You did make accusations Frances was another uncle Ted with no evidence to back it up . If your going to battle the antchrist you better make sure to cross your t and dot your i or are you controlled opposition. 🤔

Calumny is a sin. So is gossip. Which one is it? Which sin belongs to “the great, holy, erudite, wise, heroically courageous, orthodox Archbishop Vigano”? This is what happens when you get mixed up with the Williamson crowd. You become Michael Voris in a mitre.

This is a witch hunt done by the evil and morally corrupt Vatican.

Cardinal Vigano's eclessiastical trial will be about as fair as the one that Trump received in N.Y.

Archbishop Viganò digs his own grave, by extravagant statements

Archbishop Viganò digs his own grave, by extravagant statements

“I believe that once again, we are seeing play out in real time the destruction of the person and reputation of another outstanding cleric of the Roman Church, since, because he lacks the courage to bring a canonical complaint to the competent tribunal, he is attempting to win his case by public debate and diatribes: a thing which can never succeed, since the Church of Jesus Christ is a juridical entity with proper laws and procedures, and justice must be sought in accord with them.
Contrariwise, if the Archbishop changes his legal strategy immediately by publicly appealing to a provincial council against the actions of a dicastery which was erected not by Pope Benedict XVI but by another claiming the papal office during his lifetime, he will put the entire dispute squarely on the proper legal grounds and avoid a charge of schism. For no one appealing to the proper tribunal is a schismatic. He will also in the strongest possible juridical manner put in doubt the claim of Pope Francis to have the right to move against him.
In such a case, the Bishops of the Roman Province can decide to call or not call the Council: the charges against Pope Francis being sufficient to hold the Apostolic See impeded (see here fore more about this). If the Bishops were to refuse to convene, then the Archbishop could rightfully appeal to any provincial council in the world, since such a refusal would confirm the juridical doubt concerning the impeded see and a conspiracy to overthrow the Church. Furthermore, even if the provincial council in the Roman province determine against him, he could appeal to other provincial councils, since such decisions put in writing in a provincial council would demonstrate the unjust basis of Pope Francis’ claims to office. This would raise the controversy to the international level and require a general council to hear the case, as numerous provincial councils could rightfully demand such be convened.
This is the way to fight as a Catholic in the footsteps of great saints such as St. Athanasius of Alexandria. Let us pray that the Archbishop wake up fast, before he is eaten up by the crocodile on the Tiber.”

((why get thrown out, letting things carry on, when this could actually be the moment to challenge and cause the Holy Church to investigate the legitimacy of PF?))
