Neo-Church’s Lebanon Visit Continues Apostate Papal Legacy
The “EWTN News” portal (November 23, 2025) reports Lebanese anticipation for Antipope Leo XIV’s visit, recalling previous trips by John Paul II (1997) and Benedict XVI (2012). Robert El Haybe and Elie Baroud describe these events as moments of “spiritual revival,” claiming they offered hope during Syrian occupation, economic collapse, and regional conflicts. Baroud asserts the upcoming visit should demand “peace,” disarmament of militias, and return of Christian emigrants. The article frames papal visits as sustaining Lebanon’s “model of coexistence,” ignoring doctrinal concerns.
