Sedevacantists argue that some recent occupants of the Vatican palace performed actions that would not be carried out by true popes. In such assertions, sedevacantists agree with those who have elected men to positions which they claim are papal but who do not occupy the Vatican palace.

It is also noted that Pope John Paul IPapabile Cardinals typically enter conclaves carefully groomed in case they are elected. John Paul I ( October 17, 1912— September 28, 1978), born Albino Luciani was elected Pope on August 26, 1978 and died 33 days later on September 28, 1978, after one o (r: August-September 1978Events January January 1 The Copyright Act of 1976 takes effect, making sweeping changes to United States copyright law.

The tradition started with Saint Agatho on June 27, 678. Its author is unknown. The oath-taker, the pope-to-be, vows never to innovate or change an.
Sedevacantism is a subset of Catholic traditionalism. Other traditionalists maintain that the popes since Pius XII, although they may have personally held many of what some traditionalists perceive as scandalous heretical beliefs, nevertheless were true popes who never tried to use their infallible power (which only is used exceptionally) to promulgate a heresy, which all Catholics believe would be impossible.
Some groups have put forward their own popes in opposition to those in Rome, and thus transferred from sedevacantism to conclavism. The Palmar de Troya movement asserts that Christ appeared to Clemente Domínguez y Gómez, a Spaniard, and told him that he was to assume the papacy on Pope Paul VI's death. This claimant is known as Pope Gregory XVII.
The United States-based true Catholic Church in the late 1990s elected a traditionalist priest to be Pope Pius XIII, claiming that all popes following the death of Pope Pius XII (r: 1939- 1958) were invalidly elected or disqualified by virtue of their excommunication. This group argues that Pope John XXIII (r: 1958- 1963) joined the freemasons in 1935, an act that, if true, would have earned automatic excommunication and so made him ineligible for the papacy.
Sedevacantists are few, with a membership of only a few thousand. However, they generally believe that the marks of Christ's church comprise unity, sanctity, catholicity and apostolicity, and do not include size.
There is a movement among sedevacantists in England to be known instead as recusants.
The conclavists are a group that believes Karol Wojtyla to be a heretical antipope, while also accepting the Catholic doctrine that there will be a perpetual line of successors in the Papacy. The conclavists' dreams were realized with the election of Pope Michael on July 16, 1990. However, some have rejected this pope in favor of further conclaves with the election of Antipope Linus II and Antipope Pius XIII.
