Vatican’s Hollywood Encounter: Sacrilegious Syncretism Masquerading as Hope
Vatican News portal (November 15, 2025) reports on a gathering where antipope Leo XIV hosted actors Cate Blanchett, Spike Lee, Leslie Mann, and filmmaker Kenneth Lonergan at the Apostolic Palace. The event promoted cinema as essential for helping humanity “rediscover hope” amid declining theater attendance. Participants praised the Vatican’s embrace of art while promoting refugee advocacy through Blanchett’s UNHCR-funded project. This spectacle epitomizes the conciliar sect’s abandonment of supernatural mission (salus animarum) for naturalistic humanism.
