Vatican News portal (December 9, 2025) reports that antipope Leo XIV (Robert Prevost) urged “Catholic” educators in Africa to help young people “regain confidence in their future” through formation allegedly strengthening family life, solidarity, and leadership. The message—delivered through freemason Pietro Parolin—claims education should develop “full hearts” rather than merely “cultivated minds,” while decrying African youth emigration as a symptom of despair. The article promotes the “Global Compact on Education,” praises Africa’s “cultural and moral strengths,” and concludes with the modernist slogan about forming “builders of the continent’s future.”
Naturalism Replaces Supernatural Faith in Educational Mission
The entire message constitutes a systematic evacuation of Catholic education’s true purpose as defined by Pius XI in Divini Illius Magistri: “Christian education takes in the whole aggregate of human life, physical and spiritual, intellectual and moral… to elevate and regulate it with the forces of revealed truth.” By reducing formation to psychosocial objectives like “confidence,” “solidarity,” and “sacrifice,” the conciliar sect perpetuates the heresy of naturalism condemned in Pascendi Dominici Gregis: “[Modernists] make conscience the foundation of religion… and thus it follows that God and conscience are one and the same thing.”
Where the antipope speaks of “full hearts capable of compassion,” authentic Catholic doctrine demands formation in sanctifying grace through sacramental life. The article’s silence about the Mass, Confession, or devotion to the Sacred Heart exposes its fundamentally secular orientation. Pius XI’s warning rings prophetic: “Any form of… education which neglects or repudiates the Christian idea of life is a deformation” (Divini Illius Magistri, §63).
Global Compact on Education: Masonic Subversion of Catholic Teaching
The endorsement of the “Global Compact on Education” reveals the Vatican II sect’s surrender to United Nations globalism. Pius XI explicitly condemned such secular educational alliances: “State schools… based upon an ideology which resolves the education of youth into naturalism stripped of all Christian ideas, are to be regarded as contrary to the natural law” (DIM §86). The Compact’s emphasis on “sustainable development goals” directly opposes the Church’s mandate to “teach all nations” (Matthew 28:19)—replacing supernatural evangelization with UN Agenda 2030.
False Anthropology Undermines Family and Society
The antipope’s vague call to protect families “against harmful ideologies” deliberately omits specific condemnations of contraception, divorce, and gender ideology—all rampant in Africa through UN and NGO campaigns. Contrast this with Pius XI’s unambiguous teaching: “Those who hold the reins of government… must not only not put obstacles in the way… but must… favor and assist the Church” (Casti Connubii §138). By refusing to name the enemies of marriage, the conciliar sect enables their destruction.
The article’s praise for Africa’s “cultural strengths” constitutes religious relativism forbidden by Quas Primas: “When once men recognize… that Christ has been appointed by God the Judge… it will be impossible for them to profess salvation in Him while refusing obedience to His law” (§24). African traditions—like all human cultures—remain subordinate to Christ the King, not equal partners in dialogue.
Traitorous Silence on Africa’s True Crisis
Nowhere does the message address the real causes driving African emigration: decades of conciliar apostasy that destroyed sacramental life, permitted Communist infiltration of seminaries, and abandoned mission territories. As the Church’s authentic magisterium taught: “Unless the faithful… preserve communion with Jesus Christ… they are branches cut from the vine which… will inevitably wither” (Pius XII, Mystici Corporis §69). The “limited opportunities” bemoaned by antipope Leo XIV stem directly from Vatican II’s betrayal of Catholic social doctrine—replaced by UN-approved socialism.
Sacrilegious Usurpation of Ecclesial Authority
The very notion that an antipope—whose “pontificate” derives from the invalid 2013 conclave—could address Catholic educators constitutes blasphemy. As Pius XII decreed in Vacantis Apostolicae Sedis: “No one… may disturb or presume to interfere in any way in the election of the Supreme Pontiff.” The conciliar sect’s “educators” labor under false jurisdiction, their schools being mere simulacra of Catholic institutions. True education requires submission to legitimate pastors, which the Vatican II hierarchy lacks entirely.
The message’s closing reference to forming “builders of the continent’s future” exposes its revolutionary eschatology. Catholic education prepares souls for eternity, not earthly utopias. As Christ warned: “What doth it profit a man, if he gain the whole world, and suffer the loss of his own soul?” (Matthew 16:26). This neo-modernist manifesto substitutes Marxist liberation theology for the Gospel—confirming Pius X’s judgment: “The Modernist… is at once the bitterest enemy of the Catholic Church” (Pascendi §39).
