Celarent or Cesare?


I am Not a Usurer · Celarent or Cesare? · Defending the 1990 Emergency Conclave

Which mode of syllogism is valid about St. Robert's principle?

If Wojtyla, Ratzinger and Bergoglio have all upheld (since 1992), this:

The question about the origins of the world and of man has been the object of many scientific studies which have splendidly enriched our knowledge of the age and dimensions of the cosmos, the development of life-forms and the appearance of man. These discoveries invite us to even greater admiration for the greatness of the Creator, prompting us to give him thanks for all his works and for the understanding and wisdom he gives to scholars and researchers. With Solomon they can say: "It is he who gave me unerring knowledge of what exists, to know the structure of the world and the activity of the elements... for wisdom, the fashioner of all things, taught me."


I don't see how this is material.

It involves heresy, since it involves denial of Geocentrism and Young Earth Creationism to a degree beyond what Leo XIII or Fulcran Vigouroux could have imagined.

So, the options are, according to St. Robert:

A Pope cannot uphold CCC 283
John Paul II, Benedict XVI, Francis are Popes
= John Paul II, Benedict XVI, Francis have not upheld CCC 283

Or:

A Pope cannot uphold CCC 283
Wojtyla, Ratzinger and Bergoglio have upheld CCC 283
= Wojtyla, Ratzinger and Bergoglio are not Popes.
