Pagan Pageantry Masquerading as Catholic Piety in Warsaw Epiphany Parade
The VaticanNews portal (January 7, 2026) reports on the “Three Kings Parade” in Warsaw, an event purportedly blessed by antipope Leo XIV through his substitute at the Secretariat of State. The spectacle involved thousands marching along the Royal Route, with similar events at 1,000 global locations under the motto “Rejoicing in Hope.” Archbishop Adrian Galbas led prayers while the Polish president participated in what organizers call “the world’s largest street Nativity scene.”
Theological Abomination in Public Square
This synthetic display epitomizes the conciliar sect’s abandonment of lex orandi, lex credendi (the law of prayer is the law of belief). The parade reduces the adoration of the Magi—a supernatural event confirming Christ’s universal kingship—to carnivalesque theater. Quas Primas (Pius XI, 1925) declares:
“Nations will be reminded by the annual celebration of this feast that not only private individuals but also rulers and princes are bound to give public honor and obedience to Christ.”
Yet here, Christ’s sovereignty is supplanted by multicultural pageantry where “African, Asian, and European marches” promote universalist heresy.
The event’s motto—“Rejoicing in Hope”—embraces the modernist error condemned in Lamentabili Sane (1907): “Faith… is ultimately based on a sum of probabilities.” True Catholic hope derives from sanctifying grace, not emotional pageants. Pius XI’s encyclical establishes Christ’s actual social reign—not Bergoglian “joy” detached from doctrinal precision.
Illegitimate Clergy Blessing Apostasy
Archbishop Galbas’ participation exemplifies the conciliar sect’s invalid ministry. As the Syllabus of Errors (Pius IX, 1864) condemns:
“The Church ought to be separated from the State, and the State from the Church” (Error #55).
The Polish president’s involvement constitutes sacrilegious usurpation of Catholic governance. True pre-1958 doctrine demands civil leaders publicly submit to Christ’s authority—not exploit liturgical events for political theater.
Naturalism Replacing Supernatural Faith
Organizers boast of “family-oriented” parades with “knights, ladies-in-waiting, and animals.” This Disneyfied spectacle mirrors the condemned Jansenist rigorism noted in the False Fatima Apparitions file: mortifications replaced by sentimentalized folk rituals. The Defense of Sedevacantism document affirms Bellarmine’s principle that manifest heretics (like conciliar “bishops”) automatically lose jurisdiction. Thus, Galbas’ blessings are spiritually void.
The parade’s growth since 2009—coinciding with Epiphany’s reinstatement as a Polish holiday—reveals the conciliar sect’s modus operandi: replace dogmatic content with emotional manipulation. As Quas Primas warns: “When God and Jesus Christ were removed from laws and states… the foundations of authority were destroyed.”
Omission of Prophetic Warnings
Nowhere does the article mention Christ’s warning: “Not every one that saith to me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven” (Matthew 7:21). The parade’s inclusive ethos—“bearing witness to Christ on the streets”—ignores the Syllabus’ condemnation of indifferentism (Errors #15-18). True Catholic processions—like Corpus Christi—emphasize reparation for heresy, not interfaith syncretism.
Conclusion: Anti-Evangelical Spectacle
This parade embodies the conciliar revolution’s essence: substitution of sacramental economy with anthropocentric gatherings. As St. Pius X lamented in Pascendi, modernists reduce faith to “vital immanence”—here manifested as street theater. Until Poland’s rulers publicly consecrate the nation to Christ the King per Quas Primas—renouncing Vatican II’s religious liberty apostasy—such spectacles will remain Satanic counterfeits of true devotion.
