"In Anglo-Saxon thinking, if you now have a rule you need 72 Cardinals under age 80 to vote in a Pope, and you only have 71 left, or, as is the case now, none, then “AW MAH GAWD!” it means a Pope can never be elected again and the Church has defected because the office of the Papacy has no hope of ever being filled again."
I'm not sure that's "Anglo-Saxon" thinking so much as just what passes for thinking amongst the retarded. Or possibly public pronouncements by, ah, insular people trained for many generations in a certain form of sophistry. Mind you, I'm commenting on all this from a British perspective; I cannot speak for those labouring under the US system.
Under the common law, case law arises only when there's no existing law to cover this situation, but is expected to be in harmony with existing laws & cases. It may not be, but that criticism can be applied to the Roman system too, and like Roman law, bad precedents can be overturned. Case law is also subordinate to any statutes.
Somewhat related, the importance attached to precedent means a *sensible* Englishman (I'm assured they do still exist) will, upon being confronted with the lack of 72 Cardinals (or w/e) look to past decisions. If Popes were elected without 72 Cardinals under 80 blah blah blah... well guess what he'll be basing his decision on. Granted, because of the rather different emphasis in the common law over Roman law (below), he might try to rule as close to the current system as he can to avoid disruptions.
From what I understand, Roman law cares more about correctness, whereas the common law cares more about continuity of government. A judge trained under the Roman system will be much more willing to toss out bad prior judgements, but a common law judge will be much less inclined to, on the basis that it's better to operate under a predictable but imperfect system than a a more predictable but more perfect one. I think a lot of the difference in certain national characters can be seen in these two approaches.
Just return to Holy Orthodoxy. After all its clear its Protestant Germanics and Anglo-Saxons who actually follow your conception of Roman Law by throwing out any canon law they please, including Nicea. And that's where your conception will take you. Abandon that silly conception and submit to the true church, the Holy Orthodox Church!
Again, you're retarded. And too stupid to check things out for yourself, so you believe the nonsensical rubbish the Eastern Schimatic sect to which you belong have spoon-fed idiots like yourself. So you believe Nicea established the Bible, or some other important things that somehow makes the schismatics more relevant than the truth. Well, no, you are stupid and ignorant and literally could not take 5 minutes to research the veracity or falsity of the lies you have been spoon-fed, like the retard you are. So educate yourself before even attempting to comment here agin. Read: https://ps.edu/council-nicaea-biblical-canon/
Literally on the first page of results for "council of Nicea and the Bible".
CATHOLICS put the Bible together. Specifically Jerome. Under order from a POPE. And no canon law was ever thrown out. You literally demonstrate you are too dumb to even understand what Canon Law is with your idiotic statement. Just another retard that can't read, is ignorant to a shocking degree of what he professes is his own religion, and yet somehow, for reasons only his Satanic pride knows, feels entitled to spew his mind-shart on the internet. Sit down, shut up and start educating yourself.
I would imagine the Roman way around case law is to have the Emperor throw it out. Kind of doesn't work when there is no Emperor though. Oh wait! The Pope is kind of an Emperor Replacement, so he can throw out the case the law for us! Hoorah! Oh wait, its not in his interests. LMAO!
You're retarded. The Papacy was in place before the Bible was put together. From St. Peter on. This is not some kind of secret, hidden knowledge. Try to read a book sometime. One without pictures.

Yes, not a bad summary.

Your comment here shows the depth of idiocy at not even being able to grasp the very basis of the point.
The whole point of Roman Law is that THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS CASE LAW.
Seriously, the reading comprehension of drug-addled chimp.
The papacy didn't become dogma till Vatican I. Its of human origin.
You're retarded. The Papacy was in place before the Bible was put together. From St. Peter on. This is not some kind of secret, hidden knowledge. Try to read a book sometime. One without pictures.
