Catholic News Agency reports on December 23, 2025, that antipope Leo XIV (Robert Prevost) appealed to Illinois Governor JB Pritzker during a November 2025 Vatican meeting to veto an assisted suicide bill. The self-styled “pope” expressed disappointment when Pritzker signed the legislation on December 12, claiming they had been “very clear about the necessity to respect the sacredness of life” while asking people to “reflect upon the nature of human life” during Christmas. The article quotes the usurper’s weak lamentations about the governor’s decision and mentions Cardinal Blase Cupich’s equally ineffectual objections, framing this exchange as legitimate Catholic opposition while concealing the conciliar sect’s doctrinal bankruptcy.
Naturalization of Mortal Sin as Political Dispute
The entire exchange reduces assisted suicide from a crimen contra naturam (crime against nature) requiring immediate excommunicatio latae sententiae (automatic excommunication) to a mere policy difference. Pius XII’s Allocution to Italian Jurists (1952) established that euthanasia constitutes “directly willed murder” demanding “absolute rejection,” yet the article presents the conciliar sect’s leadership as engaging in political lobbying rather than exercising their duty to condemn heresy and impose canonical penalties. The “pope’s” statement that “unfortunately, for different reasons, he decided to sign that bill” reveals the conciliar sect’s fundamental error: reducing divine law to negotiable preference.
When Francis Libermann writes in Directoire Spirituel that “the pastor’s first duty is to defend the flock from wolves, not negotiate with them,” it exposes the apostasy of treating Pritzker as a legitimate interlocutor rather than a public heretic promoting homicide. Canon 2334 of the 1917 Code mandates excommunication for those who “procure abortion” or practice euthanasia, yet neither the “pope” nor “cardinal” imposed this penalty – demonstrating their complicity in sacrilege.
Theological Abdication Disguised as Dialogue
The usurper’s appeal to “the sacredness of life” deliberately omits references to eternal damnation for suicide, the propitiatory sacrifice of Calvary, or the Church’s authority to bind and loose. Contrast this with Pius XI’s Casti Connubii (1930), which declares: “Those who hold the reins of government should not forget that it is the duty of public authority by appropriate laws and penalties to defend the lives of the innocent.” The conciliar sect substitutes Catholic integralism with secular bioethics, reducing the defense of life to sentimental appeals rather than demanding public submission to Christ the King as mandated in Quas Primas (1925).
The article’s reference to the Catholic Conference of Illinois lamenting the law’s failure to “ensure patients are offered services” further exposes the conciliar sect’s naturalism. Catholic teaching requires condemning evil intrinsically, not merely critiquing procedural deficiencies. As St. Augustine states in De Civitate Dei: “Neither may we commit iniquity that good may come.” This modernist inversion transforms the Church into a social NGO rather than the columna et firmamentum veritatis (pillar and ground of truth – 1 Timothy 3:15).
Subversion of Christ’s Social Kingship
Nowhere does the “pope” invoke the Regnum Christi (Kingship of Christ) that demands civil authorities submit to divine law. The article’s description of the meeting as occurring at “the papal villa of Castel Gandolfo” constitutes theater masking apostasy. True Catholic doctrine, as expressed in Pius IX’s Syllabus of Errors (1864), condemns the notion that “the Church ought to be separated from the State, and the State from the Church” (Proposition 55). Yet the conciliar sect’s leaders implicitly accept this separation by framing their objections within pluralistic parameters rather than proclaiming Christ’s exclusive right to govern nations.
Omission of Canonical Duties
A glaring omission is the conciliar clergy’s refusal to enforce Canon 188.4 of the 1917 Code, which automatically removes officeholders who publicly defect from Catholic faith. Pritzker’s advocacy for assisted suicide constitutes formal cooperation with intrinsic evil, requiring immediate deprivation of ecclesiastical privileges and sacraments. Yet the article presents “Cardinal Cupich” as merely expressing “views” rather than imposing canonical penalties – a dereliction of duty that St. Robert Bellarmine condemns in De Romano Pontifice: “Those who tolerate manifest heresy become participants in the crime.”
Diabolical Disorientation in the Conciliar Sect
The article’s closing reference to euthanasia laws in Canada and Britain inadvertently exposes the conciliar sect’s global failure. When antipope Leo XIV speaks of “the goodness of human life,” he subverts the Catholic understanding of life as ordered toward supernatural beatitude. Pius XII’s Humani Generis (1950) warns against such naturalism: “Others destroy the gratuity of the supernatural order since God, they say, cannot create intellectual beings without ordering and calling them to the beatific vision.” This reduction of Catholic doctrine to humanitarian ethics confirms the conciliar sect’s apostasy, making them unfit to govern Christ’s flock.
The true Church continues in those bishops and priests who uphold the integral Catholic faith, administer valid sacraments, and refuse communion with modernist heretics. As St. Vincent of LĂ©rins declares in Commonitorium: “What has been believed everywhere, always, and by all” remains the sole standard – a standard abandoned by the Vatican occupiers and their collaborators in Illinois.
