 Antipope - Biocrawler   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
These antipopes were usually in opposition to a specific person chosen by the papal electors (since the Middle Ages, the College of Cardinals).
The earliest antipope, Hippolytus, was elected in protest against Pope Callixtus I by a schismatic group in the city of Rome in the 3rd century.
The period when antipopes were most numerous was during the struggles between the Popes and the Holy Roman Emperors of the 11th and 12th centuries.

 Catholic Insight: A Matter of Justice: the Catholic Church on Capital Punishment / Death Penalty   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
Antipope John Paul II denies 2,000 years of Church teaching by saying that the death penalty is not a moral option.
And now compare this to what the Antipope says about the death penalty, calling it "cruel and unnecessary" and prohibiting the use of capital punishment altogether as inconsistent with the "Gospel of Life." It is absolutely baffling.
Folks, this is not a "development," this is a corruption, precipitated by the new humanist religion that is being imposed upon unsuspecting Catholics by the New Church.

That might have been the end of it, and the claim to Thessalonica could have floated around for years like many such claims, if not for the marriage of Boniface's granddaughter Yolanda, who fell heir to Montferrat with the death of her brother in 1305.
His son by his first marriage would succeed as the Emperor Michael IX; but now Yolanda's son Theodore would succeed as Margrave of Montferrat.
Their other son, John, is listed by Andreas Thiele as the "titular" King of Thessalonica; but now, of course, the claim to Thessalonica has returned to the Sovereign who actually holds the territory, John's father Andronicus.

 Book Heaven: October 2005
While that might have made his collection seem almost second rate, Hicks probably conveniently forgot to mention though one area in which the engineer probably wasn't as obsessive -- the times Hicks abandoned patients in the middle of dental procedures to give tours of his Museum of Incandescent Lighting.
I found this wonderful story in Michael Kimmelman's absorbing The Accidental Masterpiece: On the Art of Life and Vice Versa (The Penguin Press, 2005 hc $24.95), a book that is not so much about collecting as it is about the relationship of art to our lives.
From the front flap copy comes this explanation about the books' premise: "The idea behind The Accidental Masterpiece is that art provides us with clues about how to live our own lives more fully...
