The Vatican News portal (November 11, 2025) promotes “The Economy of Francesco” event scheduled for November 28-30 at Castel Gandolfo, framing the Jubilee Year as an environmentalist manifesto. The article advocates “rethinking the economy” through three heretical pillars: “social justice, care for the Earth, and freedom from debt,” while quoting Leviticus 25:11 to justify leaving land uncultivated. This represents not mere ecological concern but systematic naturalism replacing supernatural faith.
Subversion of Jubilee Theology
The article reduces the Jubilee – instituted by God as “annus remissionis” (year of remission) for spiritual and economic restoration of His people – to pagan earth worship: “The Earth is not a resource… but rather a living organism.” This contradicts Pius XI’s encyclical Quas Primas (1925), which declares: “Christ must reign in the minds of men… in the wills of men… in their hearts” – not in Gaia-worship. The true Jubilee exists solely to restore man’s right relationship with God, as the Syllabus of Errors condemns those who “equate the Church with false religions” (Proposition 18).
“How can this awareness change the way we approach the economy? We could try to apply the concept of rest to the economic and ecological spheres…”
This economic pantheism ignores the Church’s social doctrine premised on Rerum Novarum‘s principle: “Man precedes the State.” The article’s call to “slow down production” and implement “business decelerators” constitutes economic suicide while violating Genesis 1:28’s mandate to “subdue the earth.” Pius XII warned in 1953: “Any attempt to undermine the right of private property sows the seeds of revolution” (Allocution to Italian Farmers).
Naturalism Replaces Supernatural Order
Lamentably absent is any mention of Christ’s Kingship, the necessity of grace, or the Four Last Things. The article’s “regenerative agriculture” fixation echoes Freemason Albert Pike’s call for “nature religion” in Morals and Dogma. When Bergoglio’s apostate structures speak of Earth’s “sacredness,” they commit idolatry condemned by Pius IX: “Pantheism identifies God with nature” (Syllabus, Proposition 1).
The proposed “healing of social wounds” through wealth redistribution violates the principle of subsidiarity enshrined in Quadragesimo Anno (1931). St. Pius X’s Lamentabili Sane (1907) explicitly condemns such naturalism: “Revelation was merely man’s self-awareness of his relationship to God” (Proposition 20). Nowhere does the article mention repentance, sacrifice, or the Cross – only pagan “regeneration” rituals.
Usurpation of Divine Authority
By declaring “the Earth’s right to rest,” the conciliar sect arrogates to itself authority to suspend God’s command to “cultivate and keep” the earth (Genesis 2:15). This parallels the Freemasonic “rights of nature” agenda pushed through UN Resolution 77/317. As Pius XI taught in Quas Primas: “Rulers and governments must honor Christ… otherwise their authority collapses.” The article’s call to “recharge the Earth” constitutes blasphemous parody of sacramental grace.
“A Jubilee Year of Rest for the Earth also marks a break for humanity from excessive work and productivity…”
This Marxist framing rejects St. Paul’s command: “If anyone will not work, neither shall he eat” (2 Thessalonians 3:10). The true Jubilee requires restoration of Catholic social order, not neo-pagan sustainability goals. Leo XIII’s Rerum Novarum §22 condemns such “earth worship” as rebellion against the Eternal Law.
Conclusion: Apostasy Wrapped in Scripture
The article weaponizes Leviticus to advance anti-Christian agenda, fulfilling Pius X’s warning about Modernists “corrupting scriptural texts to support errors” (Pascendi, 27). By reducing Jubilee to environmental policy, the conciliar sect proves its apostasy. As St. Augustine teaches: “What is not ordered to God is necessarily disordered” (City of God, XIX.13). True Catholics must reject this eco-paganism and cling to the perennial Magisterium that declares: “For there is no other name under heaven given to men by which we must be saved” (Acts 4:12) – not the name of “Mother Earth.”
