Vatican News portal reports (December 15, 2025) that antipope Leo XIV, through his secretary “Cardinal” Pietro Parolin, expressed “deep sadness” over the killing of 16 people at a Jewish holiday celebration in Sydney. The telegram to conciliar sect’s “Archbishop” Anthony Fisher speaks of “spiritual closeness to all those affected,” prays for conversion of “those tempted to violence,” and offers “divine blessings of peace.” The article concludes with promotional appeals for newsletter subscriptions and financial support. This perfunctory response exemplifies the conciliar sect’s abandonment of extra Ecclesiam nulla salus (outside the Church there is no salvation) while embracing religious indifferentism.
Naturalistic Reduction of Papal Office to NGO Function
The conciliar sect’s telegram reduces the Petrine office to secular crisis management, speaking of “spiritual closeness” without specifying which spirit inspires such ecumenical condolences. Contrast this with Pius XI’s condemnation: “That false opinion which considers all religions to be more or less good and praiseworthy” (Encyclical Mortalium Animos, 1928). The message omits:
any call for conversion of Jews to the true Faith,
instead treating their religious gathering as legitimate. This violates the Council of Florence’s decree: “The Holy Roman Church believes, professes and teaches that no one remaining outside the Catholic Church… can become partakers of eternal life” (Session 11, 1442).
Omission of Christ’s Kingship in “Peace” Discourse
When the antipope invokes “divine blessings of peace,” he deliberately avoids naming the Prince of Peace – Christ the King. This evasion fulfills Pius XI’s warning about secularized leaders who “publicly reject the empire of our Savior” (Encyclical Quas Primas, 1925). The conciliar sect’s telegram embodies the condemned proposition: “The Roman Pontiff can… reconcile himself with progress, liberalism and modern civilization” (Syllabus of Errors, Pius IX, 1864, Error 80).
Blasphemous Equivalence Between True Religion and Judaism
By specifically mourning “members of the Jewish community” rather than immortal souls created for baptism, the message implies Judaism remains a valid covenant. This contradicts St. Paul’s teaching: “If anyone preach to you a gospel, besides that which you have received, let him be anathema” (Gal 1:9). The 1907 decree Lamentabili condemned the modernist error that “Christian doctrine was initially Jewish” (Error 60), yet here the conciliar sect treats the Hanukkah celebration as worthy of papal condolences.
Sacramental Silence and False Ecumenism
The telegram’s total omission of:
- Mention of the Most Holy Sacrifice of the Mass
- Call for prayers through Our Lady’s intercession
- Urgency of sacramental confession for the dying
reveals its naturalistic foundation. Compare this to the true Church’s response to tragedy, as when St. Pius V ordered Rosary processions during the Battle of Lepanto. Instead, the conciliar sect offers meaningless “divine blessings” detached from the sacramental economy – a violation of the Council of Trent’s teaching that Christ instituted sacraments “as the means by which all true justice either begins, or being begun is increased, or being lost is repaired” (Session VII, 1547).
Conclusion: Apostasy Disguised as Compassion
This telegram constitutes spiritual fraud by suggesting peace comes through interfaith dialogue rather than submission to Christ the King. As St. Augustine warned: “What worse death of the soul than freedom to error?” (Liber de vera religione, 39:72). The conciliar sect’s refusal to denounce false worship or preach the necessity of baptism confirms its status as “the synagogue of Satan” (Apocalypse 2:9). True Catholics must reject this false mercy and pray for the conversion of all – including the usurpers in Rome – to the immutable Faith once delivered to the saints.
