Conciliar Sect’s “Pope” Distorts Church’s Visible Nature in Angelus Address
The VaticanNews portal reports on November 9, 2025, that antipope Leo XIV used his Sunday Angelus address to promote a modernist ecclesiology, stating that “the mystery of the Church is much more than a simple place, a physical space, a building made of stones.” Speaking on the feast of the Dedication of the Basilica of St. John Lateran, the usurper claimed that “the true sanctuary of God is Christ who died and rose again” while minimizing the visible hierarchy’s essential role. The article further notes his naturalistic appeals for “sustainable agricultural practices” and generic peace negotiations, alongside superficial Marian devotion. This performance exemplifies the conciliar sect’s systematic dismantling of Catholic ecclesiology.
Reduction of the Church to Invisible Spiritualism
The antipope’s assertion that “the true sanctuary of God is Christ” while technically correct in isolation, deliberately obscures the Church’s divine constitution as a visible society (Pius XII, Mystici Corporis). His statement that
“we too are living stones of this spiritual edifice”
constitutes a gnostic distortion, ignoring Christ’s establishment of Peter as the visible rock (Matthew 16:18) and the hierarchical structure preserved through Apostolic Succession. As Pius IX condemned in the Syllabus of Errors: “The Church is not a true and perfect society, entirely free” (Error 19). The antipope’s spiritualization of ecclesiology serves the modernist agenda to replace the Church’s visible authority with subjective “unity” devoid of doctrinal substance.
Naturalistic Subversion of the Social Reign of Christ
The conciliar sect’s focus on “sustainable agricultural practices” and “combating food waste” exposes its materialist priorities. While care for creation remains a Catholic principle, the antipope’s exclusive emphasis on temporal concerns neglects the Church’s primary mission: “Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit” (Matthew 28:19). Pius XI’s encyclical Quas Primas establishes that true peace comes only through Christ’s social reign:
“When once men recognize, both in private and in public life, that Christ is King, society will at last receive the great blessings of real liberty, well-ordered discipline, peace and harmony.”
The antipope’s silence on the necessity of Catholic states and his call for secular “negotiations” embody the condemned error that “the Roman Pontiff can, and ought to, reconcile himself, and come to terms with progress, liberalism and modern civilization” (Pius IX, Syllabus of Errors Error 80).
Illegitimate Marian Devotion Covering Doctrinal Corruption
The article’s closing reference to the antipope invoking “Mary, Mother of the Church” constitutes theological sleight-of-hand. While authentic Marian devotion remains essential, the conciliar sect’s use of this title – coined at Vatican II – serves to camouflage its ecclesiological heresies. True Marian piety requires submission to her divine Son’s immutable doctrines, not the modernist equivocation promoted by antipopes. As St. Pius X warned in Lamentabili, modernists reduce dogma to “a certain interpretation of religious facts” (Proposition 22). The spectacle of a usurper invoking Our Lady while undermining her Son’s Church parallels Scripture’s warning of “false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into apostles of Christ” (2 Corinthians 11:13).
Canonical and Theological Nullity of the Usurper’s Acts
The article’s reference to “Pope Leo XIV” constitutes material heresy, as the occupant of the Vatican rejects the Catholic faith’s immutable truths. St. Robert Bellarmine’s teaching remains binding:
“A manifest heretic cannot be Pope… he who is not a Christian cannot be Pope” (De Romano Pontifice II.30)
. The antipope’s appeal to “the Church of Rome” rings hollow when his sect has systematically destroyed that Church’s doctrinal foundations. As Pius IX’s Syllabus condemns: “Protestantism is nothing more than another form of the same true Christian religion” (Error 18) – precisely the ecumenism implicit in the antipope’s “mystery of unity” rhetoric.
