Can someone tell me how this word is pronounced?
Thanks!
Dave WARNING: The following is meant to be a lighthearted, totally unserious response; it is not an editorial or judgmental comment whatsoever!!! It's pronounced "skiz . . . mat . . . ick"!

So would the accent be on the third syllable: sedevacantist?
Or on another syllable?
Dave

Dear Friends,
I spell it H-E-R-E-S-Y.
Pray for these lost brothers and sisters. We need them in the true church of Jesus Christ.
Mother of God, pray for us!
Paul

Since the root is sede vacante ("the seat is empty") which has been squeezed into one word, I think as well that the stress is penultimate as Sharon has indicated. To most sedevacantists there has not been a valid Pope since Pius XII.

Thank you, Sharon and Diak! This was a word I have only read in print and never heard spoken. At least now I can use it without sounding silly! Dave

I have been asked to clarify my position regarding the hierarch of the Church. It is my position that for the most part Pope John Paul II has not been a good Pope for the faithful and most of the Bishops he has pointed have not been good for the Church. Plain and simple this is my position. It is a very Catholic position and a theologically correct position. We as the laity have every justifiable right to disagree with the hierarchs. For many Catholics there is a blind allegiance to the Pope and to the other extreme we have schismatics. I though loyal to the Church disagree with the many of the hierarchs. Just like the many horrible periods in the past the Church has had to face (i.e. Iconoclast) I believe we are facing another period perhaps labeled Modernist period. Here is a good example of a bad Bishop: http://www.theherald.co.uk/news/1634.html I do not feel it necessary to defend my position because my many post in the past begin to present a reasonable but limited defense to my argument. I am simply stating my position for clarification purposes only.
