EWTN News portal reports on the national organizing committee of the apostolic journey of the usurper Leo XIV to Spain, which has proposed, through videos created with artificial intelligence, the lives of nine “saints” and one “venerable,” Antonio Gaudí, as examples of Christian life to inspire the faithful as this ecclesial event gets underway. The choice of these figures is related to the venues of the pontifical visit and devotion to the Blessed Sacrament, given that the conciliar authorities will celebrate the solemnity of Corpus Christi on June 7 in Madrid. The project presents 10 people who “searched for God in the world” and “found the extraordinary in the ordinary.” This initiative is a perfect microcosm of the post-conciliar apostasy: the reduction of sanctity to naturalistic humanism, the employment of blasphemous technology to fabricate “inspiration,” and the complete inversion of the supernatural order that defines true Catholic life.
The Manufacture of Holiness: AI as the Tool of the Counter-Church
The most glaring and spiritually catastrophic aspect of this report is the use of artificial intelligence to create images of the “saints” and “venerable” Gaudí. This is not a neutral technological tool; it is the fruit of a worldview that denies the supernatural and seeks to replace divine creation with human fabrication. The conciliar sect, having abandoned the true faith, now resorts to the most profane means to simulate piety. As Pope Pius XI warned in Quas Primas, the rejection of Christ the King leads to the secularization of all things, where even the sacred is subjected to the whims of human invention. The use of AI to depict those who are supposed to be in the glory of God is a form of digital idolatry, creating graven images not of wood or silicon, but of algorithmic data, to lead the faithful into a false devotion. It is the abomination of desolation standing in the holy place (Matt. 24:15), where the worship of God is replaced by the worship of human technology and its products.
“Searched for God in the World”: The Modernist Hermeneutic of Immanence
The stated purpose of the project—to present people who “searched for God in the world” and “found the extraordinary in the ordinary”—is a direct echo of the condemned Modernist proposition that “revelation was merely man’s self-awareness of his relationship to God” (Proposition 20, Lamentabili sane exitu). This language is deliberately naturalistic and immanentist. It reduces the supernatural life of grace, the infused virtues, and the gifts of the Holy Ghost to a human “search” and a discovery of the “extraordinary” within the purely natural order of “ordinary” life. True Catholic sanctity is not a human achievement but a divine gift, a participation in the life of God through grace. As St. Paul teaches, “It is not I who live, but Christ who lives in me” (Gal. 2:20). The conciliar narrative systematically omits the necessity of the sacraments, the state of grace, the theological virtues, and the constant battle against the world, the flesh, and the devil. It presents a sanitized, Pelagian holiness accessible to all through mere human effort and sentiment, which is the very essence of the “cult of man” condemned by the pre-conciliar Magisterium.
The Canonization Industry and the Nullification of Martyrdom
The article lists figures such as St. Eulalia, presented as a “martyr and co-patroness” of Barcelona. While a historical St. Eulalia may have suffered martyrdom, the conciliar “canonization” process is a farce that has been used to legitimize the post-conciliar revolution. The inclusion of figures like St. Peter of St. Joseph Betancourt and St. Joseph of Anchieta, missionaries of the colonial era, serves a dual purpose: it pays lip service to a bygone era of expansion while simultaneously aligning with the conciarist agenda of “inculturation” and dialogue with pagan cultures, which often amounts to the dilution of the faith. More damning is the inclusion of Antonio Gaudí, declared “venerable” by the conciliar authorities. Gaudí, the architect of the Sagrada Família, is celebrated not for any defined Catholic virtue but for his artistic genius and his “search for God in the world” through architecture. This is the canonization of aestheticism and natural talent, a direct contradiction of the Church’s teaching that holiness consists in the heroic practice of the theological and moral virtues. The conciliar sect, having lost the ability to recognize true sanctity, now elevates cultural icons to the altars, further emptying the concept of its supernatural content.
The Eucharistic Devotion That Denies the Real Presence
The article highlights three “saints” for their “Eucharistic devotion”: St. Teresa of Ávila, St. Paschal Baylon, and St. Manuel González. This is a profound irony. The conciliar liturgy, particularly the Novus Ordo Missae, is designed to obscure the doctrine of the Real Presence and the propitiatory sacrifice of the Mass. The “devotion” promoted by the post-conciliar structures is often a sentimental, communal celebration that denies the very essence of the Blessed Sacrament. To invoke these saints, who believed in and suffered for the true doctrine of the Eucharist, in support of a system that undermines it, is a blasphemous act of appropriation. As the encyclical Quas Primas affirms, Christ’s kingship is spiritual and relates to spiritual matters, and His reign is opposed to the kingdom of Satan. The conciarist “Eucharistic devotion” is a tool of the kingdom of Satan, leading the faithful away from the true worship of God in the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass and toward a naturalistic, communal meal.
The Apostolic Journey: A Pilgrimage of the Antichrist
The entire “apostolic journey” of Leo XIV to Spain is not a pilgrimage of the Vicar of Christ but a propaganda tour for the conciarist antipope. The choice of venues, the selection of “saints,” the use of AI, and the focus on “ordinary” holiness are all elements of a carefully crafted narrative to present the post-conciliar sect as the legitimate continuation of the Catholic Church. This is the “fraud and machination” of the sects that Pope Pius IX warned about in the Syllabus of Errors, where the Church is separated from the State and the State from the Church (Proposition 55), and where the Church is subjected to the most cruel servitude. The faithful are not being called to conversion, to penance, or to the true worship of God. They are being invited to celebrate a humanistic, naturalistic, and ultimately satanic parody of the faith. The true response of a Catholic is not to participate in this charade but to reject it utterly, to cling to the immutable Tradition of the Church, and to pray for the restoration of the true faith and the true Mass.
Conclusion: The Spiritual Bankruptcy of the Conciliar Sect
The initiative reported by EWTN News is not an isolated incident but a symptom of the terminal spiritual illness of the conciliar sect. It demonstrates a complete loss of the sense of the supernatural, a reliance on human technology and artifice, and a systematic effort to replace the true faith with a naturalistic, humanistic counterfeit. The use of AI to create images of “saints,” the reduction of holiness to a human “search,” and the invocation of true saints to support a false liturgy are all signs of an institution that has lost its divine mandate and now operates purely on human principles. As the Defense of Sedevacantism argues, a manifest heretic cannot be Pope, and the conciliar authorities, by their public and manifest heresy, have lost all jurisdiction. The faithful must recognize this and seek the true Church, which endures in the faithful who profess the integral Catholic faith and are led by bishops with valid sacraments and validly ordained priests. The conciliar sect is the synagogue of Satan, and its “apostolic journeys” are missions of deception. The only true response is rejection, prayer, and a return to the unchanging Tradition of the Holy Catholic Church.
