EWTN News portal reports: On May 8, 2026, the individual occupying the Vatican throne, Robert Prevost (referred to in the text as “Pope Leo XIV”), visited the cities of Pompeii and Naples to mark the first anniversary of his usurpation of the papal office. The article describes his veneration of a statue of the Virgin at the Pontifical Shrine of the Blessed Virgin of the Rosary of Pompeii, his “concelebration” of the “Eucharist,” and his interactions with crowds, culminating in the presentation of a “personalized Neapolitan pizza.” The tone is one of triumphant celebration, portraying the occupier as a beloved pastor and the conciliar structures as the true Church. This article is a textbook example of the conciliar sect’s substitution of naturalistic triumphalism and pagan syncretism for the supernatural reality of the Catholic Church, revealing the abomination of desolation sitting in the temple of God.
The Idolatry of the “Rosary Shrine” and the Syncretism of Pompeii
The article notes that the usurper visited the “Pontifical Shrine of the Blessed Virgin of the Rosary of Pompei,” where he “kissed a cross” and greeted crowds. From the perspective of integral Catholic faith, this shrine and its associated devotions are deeply suspect. The modern Rosary devotion, as promoted by the conciliar sect, often diverges from the traditional focus on the mysteries of salvation, becoming instead a tool for ecumenical syncretism and a vehicle for the very “Fatima” messages that are, as documented, potentially inspired by Freemasonry to divert attention from modernist apostasy. The shrine at Pompeii, heavily promoted by the post-1958 structures, is a center for this deviant spirituality. The act of “kissing a cross” at such a shrine is not an act of true Catholic worship but an idolatrous gesture towards a symbol manipulated by the conciar sect. As the Syllabus of Errors condemns, the “best theory of civil society requires that popular schools… should be freed from all ecclesiastical authority” (Proposition 47); similarly, the conciliar sect has freed popular devotion from the authority of Tradition, replacing it with a naturalistic, sentimental Catholicism that is indistinguishable from the “broad and liberal Protestantism” condemned by Lamentabili sane exitu (Proposition 65).
The Sacrilege of “Concelebration” and the New Mass
The central act of the visit was the “concelebration of the Eucharist in the Piazza Bartolo Longo.” The use of the term “Eucharist” by the conciliar sect is a calculated deception. What is celebrated in the Piazza Bartolo Longo is not the Most Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, the Unbloody Sacrifice of Calvary, but a Protestantized memorial meal, a “table of assembly” that denies the propitiatory nature of the sacrifice. The “concelebration” by the usurper and his accomplices is a sacrilege of the highest order. It is a blasphemous parody of the Holy Sacrifice, a ritual designed to give a veneer of legitimacy to the apostate clergy who participate in it. The Church teaches that the Mass is a “true and proper sacrifice” (Council of Trent, Session XXII). The conciliar “Eucharist” is not this sacrifice; it is, as the traditional maxim states, lex orandi, lex credendi (the law of prayer is the law of belief). Their law of prayer is heretical; therefore, their belief is heretical. To participate in or promote this rite is to commit spiritual suicide and to lead others into the abyss of idolatry.
The Pizza Pontiff: The Cult of Man and the Democratization of the Church
The most grotesque detail in this spectacle of apostasy is the presentation of a “personalized Neapolitan pizza” to the usurper. This is not a trivial matter; it is a profound theological statement of the conciar sect’s core values. The “Pope” is no longer the Vicar of Christ, the Servus Servorum Dei (Servant of the Servants of God), who holds the place of Christ on earth. He is a celebrity, a mascot, a “man of the people” whose first anniversary is marked with fast food. This is the logical conclusion of the democratization of the Church, the “evolution of dogmas” condemned by St. Pius X. The Church is no longer a perfect society, entirely free and endowed with rights by her Divine Founder, but a “community” subject to the “civil authority” and the “prevalent opinions of the age” (Syllabus, Propositions 19, 47). The “personalized pizza” is the Eucharist of the New Church: a material, earthly, man-centered symbol of a false community. It is the embodiment of the “cult of man” that Pius XI warned against in Quas Primas, where he stated that the “secularism of our times… began with the denial of Christ the Lord’s reign over all nations.” The usurper, smiling and waving with his pizza, is the antithesis of Christ the King.
The Silence on Sedevacantism and the Usurpation of Office
The most damning aspect of this article is its complete silence on the fundamental issue: the illegitimacy of the individual on the papal throne. The article refers to him as “Pope Leo XIV,” “the Holy Father,” and discusses his “election to the papacy” without a single word of the theological and canonical reality. As the teaching of St. Robert Bellarmine and the 1917 Code of Canon Law (Canon 188.4) make manifest, a heretic loses his office ipso facto (by the very fact). The conciliar sect, beginning with John XXIII, has defected from the Catholic faith, preaching heresies such as religious liberty, ecumenism, and the evolution of dogma. The usurper on the throne is a manifest heretic, and therefore, he is not the Pope. The article’s failure to even acknowledge this possibility is a testament to its role as a propaganda tool for the anti-church. It is a deliberate act of obfuscation, designed to normalize the abnormal and to present the abomination of desolation as the legitimate occupant of the See of Peter. The “clergy” who accompany him are not true priests but ministers of a false religion, and the “Catholics” who cheer him are, sadly, victims of a vast deception.
The Abomination of Desolation as “Holy Father”
The conciliar sect has successfully created a parallel reality where the usurper is the “Holy Father” and the New Mass is the “Eucharist.” The article from EWTN News is a perfect snapshot of this parallel reality. It is a world of banners and helicopters, of smiling crowds and personalized pizzas, a world devoid of the supernatural, devoid of the Cross, devoid of the reality of sin and judgment. It is a world where the “Church” is a humanitarian organization and its leader is a global celebrity. This is the “Church of the New Advent,” the paramasonic structure that has occupied the Vatican. The article’s tone of triumphant celebration is not merely misguided; it is blasphemous. It celebrates the triumph of the Antichrist over the Church of Christ. It is a call to reject this false church and to return to the immutable Tradition, to the true Mass, and to the true faith that endures in the faithful who profess the integral Catholic faith and are led by bishops with valid sacraments and validly ordained priests. The “pizza pontiff” is not the successor of Peter; he is the embodiment of the conciliar revolution, a revolution that has transformed the House of God into a synagogue of Satan.
