Is There a Bishop After Vatican II?

Diamond: Every pope after Vatican II is or was a manifest heretic. Therefore, there have been no authentic popes after Vatican II. The first premise is true, but only applies to those who are guilty of the crime of heresy, not the sin of heresy. There have been plenty of validly ordained bishops in the 1960s who had the authority to declare John the 23rd or Paul the 6th to be guilty of theCrime of Heresy. But they did not because those men were not manifest heretics. Pope Leo XIII says that it is absurd to imagine that he who is outside can command in the church.
