Vatican Investigates Louisiana Bishop Over Response to Priest Misconduct Claims

National Catholic Register portal reports that the Vatican has authorized an investigation of Baton Rouge Bishop Michael Duca over his handling of misconduct allegations against a Maronite Rite priest. The investigation, led by New Orleans Archbishop James Checchio, examines Duca’s response to complaints about Father Charbel Jamhoury, accused of soliciting sex from an adult parishioner and reminiscing over purported past sex acts with boys. According to whistleblower Luke Zumo, the bishop was slow to respond, removing the priest only after law enforcement was contacted more than 11 weeks after the incident. Parishioners were not told about the allegations until mid-February 2026.

Vatican’s Routine Diplomatic Honors to Iran Expose the Conciliar Sect’s Betrayal of Christ the King

Leave a Comment / Antichurch / amdg

EWTN News reports that the U.S. Embassy to the Holy See has publicly debunked claims by Iranian state media that “Pope” Leo XIV bestowed an exclusive, politically motivated diplomatic honor upon Iran’s ambassador to the Holy See, Mohammad Hossein Mokhtari. The U.S. Embassy clarified in a May 13 social media post that the decoration is a routine recognition given to all accredited ambassadors after two years of service, that thirteen ambassadors received it simultaneously, and that it was not even conferred personally by the antipope. Yet this entire episode — the conciliar sect’s diplomatic embrace of one of the world’s most virulent anti-Christian regimes, amplified by Iranian propaganda exploiting the occasion — exposes the profound spiritual bankruptcy of post-conciliarism and its systematic repudiation of the Church’s divine mission.

The “Bereaved Parents Rights Act” — A Law Without Baptism, a Right Without God

Leave a Comment / Antichurch / amdg

EWTN News portal reports that Sen. Roger Marshall (R-Kansas) and Rep. Kat Cammack (R-Florida) are introducing the so-called “Bereaved Parents Rights Act,” legislation that would require hospitals to inform parents of their rights regarding the burial or cremation of miscarried or stillborn children. The bill is backed by Students for Life Action, whose president Kristan Hawkins framed it as a matter of basic human dignity. The article is saturated with the language of “rights,” “dignity,” and “closure” — yet it is entirely silent on the one question that, from the perspective of integral Catholic faith, dwarfs all others: the eternal destiny of the soul and the absolute necessity of baptism. This silence is not accidental; it is the hallmark of a civilization that has severed law from theology and reduced the human person to a biological organism whose only value lies in the emotional comfort of the living.

Fátima Pilgrimage: A Monument to Modernist Apostasy and Syncretic Deception

Leave a Comment / Antichurch / amdg

EWTN News reports that thousands of pilgrims gathered at the Fátima Shrine in Portugal on May 13, 2026, to commemorate the 109th anniversary of the alleged apparitions of Our Lady of Fátima. Rui Manuel Sousa Valério, the “patriarch” of Lisbon, presided over the Mass and urged the faithful to become “missionary disciples,” emphasizing that Fátima should “transform lives” and be carried into “homes, families, workplaces, and schools.” The article also notes the use of a chalice donated by John Paul II, commemorating the 45th anniversary of his assassination attempt. While the article presents this as a triumph of Catholic devotion, a rigorous examination through the lens of integral Catholic doctrine reveals a far more troubling reality: the Fátima phenomenon is a sophisticated tool of Modernist subversion, diverting attention from the true apostasy within the Church and promoting a syncretic, naturalistic spirituality that undermines the supernatural mission of the Catholic Church.

Mental Health Crisis Exposed as Neo-Church Substitutes Therapy for the Supernatural Life

Leave a Comment / Antichurch / amdg

EWTN News reports that the Commission of the Episcopal Conferences of the European Union (COMECE) has published a study titled “Mental Health in Europe — A Call for Care,” urging the European Union to adopt policies that include “spiritual accompaniment” in hospitals, palliative care, and migration settings, while simultaneously calling for the strengthening of families and warning against the dangers of artificial intelligence and digital addiction. The document, prepared by the COMECE ethics committee, rests on what it calls “Christian anthropology” — the dignity of the human person created in the image of God with body and soul — and identifies loneliness, trauma, job insecurity, and forced migration as drivers of the crisis. Friederike Ladenburger, jurist and secretary of the commission, emphasized the need for “meaningful, authentic, and lasting human connections” and warned that technology must be “supplementary, not substitutive.” The study advocates for a “comprehensive” vision of mental health that encompasses social, relational, and spiritual dimensions, calling on the EU to provide financial support for young families and to include hospital chaplaincies as part of holistic care. This is a textbook example of the conciliar sect reducing the supernatural life of grace to a therapeutic supplement within a fundamentally naturalistic framework — the very inversion of Catholic teaching that the Church exists not to make men comfortable in this world but to save their souls for the next.

A Capuchin Missionary for Venice: The Conciliar Sect Continues Its Globalist Appointments

Leave a Comment / Antichurch / amdg

EWTN News Vatican Bureau reports that on May 13, 2026, the usurper Leo XIV appointed Father Emilio Biosca Agüero, OFM Cap, as the third “bishop” of Venice, Florida, accepting the resignation of the previous occupant of that see, Frank J. Dewane, 76. The article presents the appointee’s credentials: born in Fairfax, Virginia, in 1964, entered the Capuchin order in 1987, ordained in 1994, served as a missionary in Papua New Guinea (1994–2006) and Cuba (2007–2019), and most recently served as pastor of the Shrine of the Sacred Heart in Washington, D.C. The article quotes Cardinal Robert McElroy praising Agüero as a man in whose heart “St. Francis burns,” a “bridge-builder who reaches across the boundaries of polarization to forge real solidarity in the family of God,” and one “unswerving in reaching out to the poor and the marginalized, and the undocumented.” The appointee holds a licentiate in sacred theology from the John Paul II Institute for Studies on Marriage and Family. This appointment is entirely consistent with the conciliar sect’s systematic program of installing ideologically compliant figures in positions of authority, men whose formation, vocabulary, and pastoral priorities are indistinguishable from the globalist, modernist project that has laid waste to the Catholic Church since 1958.

The Neo-Church Surrenders Sacred Ground: Las Cruces Diocese and the Abandonment of Christ the King’s Rights

Leave a Comment / Antichurch / amdg

The National Catholic Register reports that the U.S. government has filed a civil action seeking eminent domain over land belonging to the Diocese of Las Cruces, New Mexico, for the purpose of constructing a border wall along the U.S.-Mexico border. The disputed parcel lies at the base of Mount Cristo Rey, site of a 29-foot statue of Christ and an annual pilgrimage destination for thousands. The diocese filed a response on May 8, arguing that the seizure would “substantially burden” religious freedom and infringe upon the rights of worship. The government offered just over $183,000 in compensation. The Las Cruces Diocese, a body fully integrated into the post-conciliar conciliar sect, here reveals the utter bankruptcy of the neo-church’s claim to represent the rights of Christ the King over earthly territories and sacred spaces. Rather than invoking the divine constitution of the Church and the absolute sovereignty of Our Lord Jesus Christ over all nations, the diocese hides behind the secular language of the First Amendment — a document born of the very liberalism and indifferentism that the true Popes have repeatedly condemned.

La Sapienza Visit Exposes Modernist Capitulation to Secularist Intolerance

Leave a Comment / Antichurch / amdg

National Catholic Register portal reports on Leo XIV’s planned visit to Rome’s La Sapienza University, where Benedict XVI was silenced by secularist protests in 2008, framing the episode as a clash between faith and reason while ignoring the fundamental apostasy of the conciliar sect that precipitated this confrontation. The article’s treatment of this incident reveals the theological bankruptcy of modernist ecclesiology, which has abandoned the Church’s divine mandate to teach and govern all nations, thereby inviting the very secularist hostility it claims to transcend.
