Saints vs. Antipopes
Book •
Ed Mazza's 'Saints vs.
Antipopes' surveys historical cases, theological arguments, and magisterial statements concerning alleged heretical or illegitimate popes.
The book compiles perspectives from saints, medieval and modern theologians, and papal writings to assess whether a pope can teach heresy and what follows if he does.
Mazza emphasizes precedents where bishops, clergy, and laity challenged suspected antipopes, arguing that such responses have historical and theological legitimacy.
He also situates Marian apparitions and prophetic warnings within this context to underscore perceived contemporary parallels.
The work aims to offer readers both historical documentation and practical guidance for encountering modern controversies about papal authority.
