Antipope’s Istanbul Visit Exposes Naturalist Subversion of Charity
The Catholic News Agency portal (November 28, 2025) reports on antipope Leo XIV’s visit to a nursing home operated by the Little Sisters of the Poor in Istanbul. The article frames this as part of commemorations for the 1,700th anniversary of the Council of Nicaea, highlighting the antipope’s message that “Christian charity begins not with doing but with being” through “fraternity” with those served. The text emphasizes interreligious dimensions of the institution’s work and quotes the antipope warning against societies that value efficiency over elderly dignity, while invoking “Pope Francis” as an authority on aging.
