Conciliar Sect’s Martyr Fabrication Exposes Theological Desolation
The Catholic News Agency portal (November 21, 2025) reports that “Pope Leo XIV” has recognized two priests—Ubaldo Marchioni (†1944) and Nicola Capelli (†1944)—as martyrs “in hatred for the faith” for their deaths at the hands of Nazi forces in 1944. The article frames their killings as evidence of heroic virtue, emphasizing Marchioni’s murder while reciting the Rosary and Capelli’s attempt to bless fellow prisoners before execution. Four other individuals were declared “venerable,” including a nun who performed medical work under Benedict XIV’s dispensation and a paralyzed laywoman who promoted disability rights.
Illegitimate Usurpation of Ecclesiastical Authority
The very act of “martyrdom recognition” by the antipope Robert Prevost (“Leo XIV”) is canonically null. Papa haereticus depositus est (a heretical pope is deposed)—a principle articulated by St. Robert Bellarmine (De Romano Pontifice, II.30) and enshrined in Canon 188.4 of the 1917 Code, which voids all offices held by those who publicly defect from the Faith. Prevost, as a member of the conciliar sect that promulgates religious liberty (contrary to Quanta Cura), apostate ecumenism (condemned in Mortalium Animos), and the New Mass (a sacrilegious parody), lacks any jurisdiction. Pius XII’s Vacantis Apostolicae Sedis (1945) explicitly forbids usurpers from altering the Church’s discipline during a vacancy of the Holy See—a vacancy enduring since 1958.
Martyrdom Reduced to Sentimental Humanism
The article’s focus on the priests’ “heroic virtue” and “compassion” substitutes Catholic martyrdom criteria with naturalistic pathos. True martyrdom requires odium fidei—direct persecution specifically for professing Catholic truths (Pius XI, Quas Primas). Yet the narrative admits the Nazis targeted these priests as collaborators with partisans, not for doctrinal defiance. This mirrors the conciliar sect’s distortion of Blessed Miguel Pro’s martyrdom—framed as “defense of human rights” rather than his rejection of Freemasonry’s anti-clericalism.
Silence pervades the article regarding whether Marchioni or Capelli opposed:
- The liturgical revolution of Paul VI (1969), which desecrated the Mass
- The heresy of religious liberty (Dignitatis Humanae)
- The blasphemous ecuмenism of Vatican II (Unitatis Redintegratio)
Had these priests upheld the Syllabus of Errors (1864)—which condemns secular meddling in Church affairs (Proposition 19)—their deaths might warrant scrutiny. Instead, their posthumous exploitation serves the neo-church’s agenda: to manufacture “martyrs” who retroactively legitimize Vatican II’s rupture.
Omission of Doctrinal Fidelity as the Sole Criterion
Nowhere does the article mention the mandatory investigation into the candidates’ adherence to all dogmas. Pius X’s Lamentabili (1907) condemned the Modernist error that “dogmas evolve” (Proposition 22). Yet “Leo XIV” canonizes figures like Maria de Lourdes Guarda—a “consecrated laywoman” whose disability activism aligns with the conciliar sect’s cult of man, replacing redemption through Christ’s sacrifice with secular humanitarianism. Similarly, Archbishop Enrico Bartoletti’s collaboration with “Jewish relief groups” ignores the Church’s perennial teaching that extra Ecclesiam nulla salus—a truth Bartoletti betrayed by supporting Vatican II’s Judeo-Masonic ecuмenism.
Theological Bankruptcy of “Suffering as Merit”
The article praises Guarda’s “offering of suffering” and Goggi’s “reputation for holiness,” yet divorces these concepts from sanctifying grace. True sanctity requires unwavering conformity to Catholic doctrine—not merely enduring physical trials (Council of Trent, Session VI, Canon 20). Guarda’s activism for “disability rights” echoes the naturalism condemned in Pius IX’s Syllabus (Proposition 64), which rejects prioritizing temporal welfare over eternal salvation. Goggi’s association with the “Little Work of Divine Providence”—founded by the suspect Luigi Orione, whose “miracles” involve Protestant “healees”—further taints his cause.
Conclusion: A Sectarian Ploy to Forge False Legitimacy
This martyr fabrication follows the conciliar playbook: replace doctrinal rigor with emotional narratives to deceive the faithful. As Pius XI warned in Quas Primas, societies that reject Christ’s kingship descend into chaos—precisely what the neo-church embodies by canonizing humanists while persecuting true Catholics who defend the Mass of Ages. Until the usurpers repent and the See of Peter is occupied by a pope faithful to Tradition, all such “canonizations” remain sacrilegious fictions.
