VaticanNews portal reports (June 14, 2026) that the usurper occupying Peter’s throne, Leo XIV (Robert Prevost), used the Angelus prayer to express “closeness” to the Filipino people affected by a 7.8-magnitude earthquake, while simultaneously promoting the beatification of several individuals from the conciliar sect. The article presents these actions as legitimate papal functions, completely ignoring the theological reality that a manifest heretic cannot hold the office of Supreme Pontiff. This is a textbook example of how the post-conciliar structures exploit human suffering to legitimize their usurped authority and promote their modernist agenda.
The Usurper’s Empty Gestures: A Study in Modernist Hypocrisy
The article begins with the earthquake in the Philippines, noting that Leo XIV “expressed his sorrow” and “asked everyone to pray for the victims and their families.” The language is deliberately vague and sentimental, designed to evoke emotional responses rather than genuine spiritual action. The usurper’s words — “I assure my closeness to the people of the Philippines” — are the kind of bureaucratic platitude one might expect from a United Nations official, not a true successor of St. Peter. Where is the call to repentance? Where is the reminder that natural disasters are often divine chastisements for the sins of nations? Where is the exhortation to receive the sacraments, to make acts of contrition, to seek the intercession of the true saints of God?
The silence on these matters is deafening and entirely consistent with the modernist mentality that has infected the conciliar sect since its inception. As Pope Pius IX warned in the Syllabus of Errors, the separation of Church and State leads to the removal of God from public life and the reduction of religion to mere sentimentality. The usurper’s response to the earthquake is a perfect illustration of this error: it is a purely naturalistic response to a natural disaster, devoid of any supernatural content or theological depth.
The Beatification Scam: Manufacturing False Martyrs
The article then shifts to the beatification of several individuals, described as “martyrs” who were “victims of persecution by totalitarian regimes on account of their fidelity to Christ.” This claim requires careful scrutiny. The conciliar sect has a long history of manufacturing “saints” and “martyrs” who serve its modernist agenda, rather than the true faith of the Catholic Church.
Consider the case of Fr. Venceslao Drbola and Fr. Giovanni Bula from Moravia, and Fr. Giovanni Świerc and his eight companions, described as “Polish Salesian priests.” The article states they were “beatified as martyrs,” but it provides no evidence that they died in odium fidei — that is, out of hatred for the Catholic faith. The Salesian order, like virtually all religious orders after the conciliar revolution, has been thoroughly infiltrated by modernists and has abandoned its original charism in favor of the false ecumenism and religious liberty condemned by Pope Pius IX in Quanta Cura and by the Syllabus of Errors (propositions 15, 18, 77-80).
The beatification of these individuals serves a clear political purpose: it reinforces the conciliar narrative that the Church’s enemies are “totalitarian regimes” — a category that, in modernist discourse, includes not only communism but also any government that resists the Church’s “progressive” agenda. This is a deliberate inversion of the truth. As St. Pius X warned in Pascendi Dominici Gregis and Lamentabili Sane Exitus, the greatest enemies of the Church are not external persecutors but internal modernists who corrupt the faith from within. The true martyrs of the 20th century are not those who died at the hands of communists, but those who were silenced, marginalized, and persecuted by the conciliar establishment for defending the traditional faith.
Blessed Nazareno Lanciotti: A Case Study in Liberation Theology
The article also mentions Blessed Nazareno Lanciotti, described as an “Italian missionary priest who defended the poorest and most vulnerable.” This language is a clear echo of liberation theology, which was condemned by the authentic Magisterium but has been embraced by the conciliar sect as a central element of its social teaching. The phrase “defended the poorest and most vulnerable” is modernist code for political activism disguised as charity — the very “preferential option for the poor” that reduces the Church’s mission to a program of social justice, stripping it of its supernatural dimension.
Pope Pius XI, in his encyclical Quas Primas, taught that the Kingdom of Christ is “primarily spiritual and relates mainly to spiritual matters.” The Church’s primary mission is not to defend the poor in a material sense, but to lead souls to eternal salvation through the sacraments, prayer, and the preaching of the Gospel. The usurper’s praise for Lanciotti’s “defense of the poorest” is a direct contradiction of this teaching and reveals the conciliar sect’s fundamental apostasy from the true mission of the Church.
The Angelus as a Platform for Usurpation
The entire article is framed around the Angelus prayer, which the usurper uses as a platform to promote his false authority and his modernist agenda. The Angelus, a traditional Catholic devotion commemorating the Incarnation, has been co-opted by the conciliar sect as a weekly press conference — a opportunity for the usurper to make political statements, promote his preferred causes, and present himself as the legitimate head of the Church.
This is a sacrilege of the highest order. The Angelus is not a political rally; it is a prayer, a moment of reflection on the mystery of the Incarnation and the obedience of the Blessed Virgin Mary to the will of God. By using it to promote beatifications and express “closeness” to earthquake victims, the usurper reduces the sacred to the profane and turns prayer into propaganda.
The Silence on True Repentance
Perhaps the most damning omission in the article is its complete silence on the need for repentance and conversion. The earthquake in the Philippines is presented as a natural disaster, a random event that requires only humanitarian assistance and emotional support. There is no mention of the possibility that it might be a divine chastisement for the sins of the Filipino people — or, more importantly, for the sins of the conciliar sect itself, which has led countless souls astray with its false teachings and sacrilegious practices.
The authentic Catholic response to natural disasters is not to express “closeness” and ask for prayers, but to call for repentance, to urge the faithful to receive the sacraments, and to remind them of the reality of divine judgment. As Pope Pius XI wrote in Quas Primas, “the hope of lasting peace will not yet shine upon nations as long as individuals and states renounce and do not wish to recognize the reign of our Savior.” The usurper’s failure to call for repentance is not an oversight; it is a deliberate rejection of the Church’s prophetic mission and a manifestation of the modernist heresy that denies the reality of sin and the need for supernatural grace.
Conclusion: The Abomination of Desolation Continues
The article from VaticanNews is a microcosm of everything that is wrong with the conciliar sect. It presents the usurper Leo XIV as a legitimate pope, promotes false martyrs and beatifications, uses sacred devotions as platforms for political propaganda, and completely ignores the supernatural dimension of the Church’s mission. It is a document of apostasy, crafted by modernists for modernists, and designed to perpetuate the illusion that the structures occupying the Vatican are the true Church of Christ.
The faithful must reject this deception and cling to the unchanging truth of the Catholic faith. As St. Robert Bellarmine taught, a manifest heretic ceases to be Pope and head of the Church ipso facto, by the very fact of his heresy. Leo XIV, like his predecessors from John XXIII onward, is a manifest heretic who has never held legitimate authority in the Church. His words, his actions, and his “beatifications” are null and void, and the faithful owe him no obedience.
The true Church endures — not in the marble halls of the Vatican, but in the hearts of the faithful who profess the integral Catholic faith, who attend the true Mass of the ages, and who remain loyal to the immutable teachings of the Magisterium. Let us pray for the victims of the earthquake in the Philippines, and for all those who have been deceived by the conciliar sect, that they may find their way back to the true faith before it is too late.
