VaticanNews portal reports that on June 24, 2026, the usurper in the Vatican, “Pope” Leo XIV, met with a group of secular authors to mark the centenary of the Vatican Publishing House. During this meeting, he delivered a speech devoid of supernatural truth, reducing writing to a naturalistic “act of humanity” that vaguely “leads to God,” while completely omitting the duty of the Church to lead souls to the true Faith and the social reign of Christ the King. This event is a glaring manifestation of the conciliar revolution’s apostasy, replacing the preaching of the Gospel of Christ with a naturalistic promotion of vague “human values” and empathy, characteristic of the anti-Church of the New Advent.
Reduction of the Papal Office to a Meeting of Secular Humanists
The event described in the article is a perfect illustration of the destruction of the Catholic concept of the papacy. Instead of acting as the Vicar of Christ, the guardian of the deposit of faith, and the infallible teacher of truth, Leo XIV is presented as a host for a literary salon. The meeting with 28 writers, including prominent secular and Jewish authors like Jonathan Safran Foer, serves no supernatural purpose. It is a purely naturalistic event where the “pope” discusses the “value of literature” in the digital age. This is a complete betrayal of the papal office. As Pope Pius XI taught in his encyclical Quas Primas, the reign of Christ the King extends over all nations and individuals, and the Church’s mission is to lead souls to eternal salvation through the teaching of the true Faith and the administration of the sacraments. The meeting described is a liturgy of the religion of man, where the “pope” of the conciliar sect acts as a chaplain to the world’s literary elite, not as the successor of Peter commanding the nations to repent and believe the Gospel.
The “Truth” Without Christ: A Modernist Heresy
The statements attributed to Leo XIV are a synthesis of the modernist errors condemned by Pope St. Pius X. He stated:
“Writing, as you know, is an act of truth, of revelation, for it reveals who we are, what we believe and hope for…”
This statement is heretical. Truth, in the objective sense, is not a human creation or a “revelation” of our inner selves. Truth is the conformity of the mind to the reality of God and His revelation, which is immutable and does not change with human consciousness. The Church has always taught that she is the pillar and foundation of the truth (1 Tim. 3:15), tasked with guarding and infallibly proposing the deposit of faith, not with observing the “revelation” of human emotions. The idea that writing “reveals who we are” is a naturalistic and subjectivist error that places man, not God, at the center. This is the “evolution of dogmas” condemned in the Syllabus of Errors (prop. 58: “Truth changes with man…”) and the heresy of Modernism, which makes the religious conscience the source of doctrine instead of the divine magisterium.
God in the “Depths of Humanity”: Pantheism and Naturalism
The most blasphemous statement of the address is the following:
“When we delve into the very depths of our humanity, we are not far from God; for there, in the midst of very human stories, God reveals himself.”
This is a direct contradiction of Catholic doctrine on the supernatural order. God is not found in the “depths of humanity” as if He were a part of creation or a product of human consciousness. This is a form of pantheism and immanentism, condemned by the Syllabus of Errors (prop. 1: “God is identical with the nature of things…”). The true Catholic teaching is that God is infinitely above creation, that man is a fallen creature in a state of sin, and that the only way to God is through Jesus Christ, the one true Mediator, and His Church. The idea that “very human stories” are a place of revelation of God is a denial of the need for supernatural revelation, the sacraments, and the salvific role of the Church. It is the religion of man, which worships the creature more than the Creator (Rom. 1:25).
The Omission of the Social Reign of Christ the King
The entire address is a deafening silence on the most crucial social teaching of the Church. There is not a single mention of the duty of individuals and societies to recognize the social reign of Christ the King. Pope Pius XI, in Quas Primas, explicitly condemned the modern error of removing Christ from society and the state: “When God and Jesus Christ – as we lamented – were removed from laws and states… the foundations of that authority were destroyed.” The “pope” of the conciliar sect, by discussing “empathy” and “encounters” through literature with secular and Jewish authors, is actively promoting the very “secularism” and “laicism” that Pius XI identified as a “plague.” He is not calling for the conversion of nations to the Catholic Faith, but for a vague, naturalistic “humanity” that is “brought together” through storytelling. This is the false ecumenism and religious indifferentism condemned by the Syllabus (prop. 15, 17, 77), which treats all beliefs as equally valid paths to a generic “humanity.”
The “Church” of the New Advent: A Hub of Syncretism
The event itself, the centenary of the Vatican Publishing House, is a celebration of the structures of the anti-Church. The publishing house of the conciliar sect has been a primary instrument for spreading the modernist errors of the post-conciliar revolution, printing the new, heretical catechism and the writings of the very usurpers who now occupy the Vatican. The meeting with authors like Jonathan Safran Foer, who spoke of “empathy for others’ suffering” without mentioning the suffering of Christ on the Cross or the need for redemption, is a perfect image of the syncretistic “Church” of Vatican II. It is a “Church” that has replaced the propitiatory sacrifice of the Mass with the “table of assembly,” and the preaching of the Gospel with the promotion of a vague, naturalistic humanism. The “pope” is not a successor of Peter, but a CEO of a religious NGO, a chaplain to the world’s elite, leading the faithful not to the Kingdom of Heaven, but deeper into the abomination of desolation that now occupies the Holy See.
