The Antichrist’s Peace: Leo XIV’s Masonic Pacifism Masquerades as Augustinian Spirituality

The National Catholic Register portal (July 27, 2026) reports on the release of a Vatican anthology titled *Disarmed and Disarming: Peace Is a Gift*, collecting the “teachings on peace” of the usurper “Pope” Leo XIV (Robert Prevost) during his first year of occupation. The article, sourced from EWTN News/ACI Prensa, features an interview with Alessandro Banfi, communications director of the Oasis Foundation, who frames the antipope’s pacifism as a profound, cross-centered realism rooted in Augustinian spirituality and missionary experience in Peru, explicitly contrasting it with “naive hippie idealism.” The volume cites the Global Peace Index 2026, Bob Dylan lyrics, and the conscience of Soviet officer Stanislav Petrov as authoritative witnesses. **This anthology is not a Catholic document but a manifesto of the Masonic “Church of the New Advent,” substituting the *Pax Christi in Regno Christi* for a naturalistic, interreligious “peace process” that serves the New World Order.**


The Usurper’s “Peace”: A Counterfeit Coin Struck in the Mint of Freemasonry

The very premise of the article—that the “peace proposed by Pope Leo XIV” constitutes a magisterial act worthy of anthology and study—is the primary heresy. Since the death of Pius XII in 1958, the See of Peter has been vacant. The line of usurpers beginning with John XXIII has constructed a paramasonic structure occupying the Vatican, which the faithful are bound to reject as the abomination of desolation spoken of by Daniel (Dan. 9:27; Matt. 24:15). Robert Prevost, a creature of the conciliar revolution, possesses no jurisdiction, no authority to teach, and no mission to propose “peace” to the nations. His “pontificate” is a juridical nullity; his “teachings” are the private opinions of a Modernist functionary. As Pius IX infallibly taught in the Syllabus Errorum (1864), error 55: “The Church ought to be separated from the State, and the State from the Church” is condemned; yet the conciliar sect’s entire diplomatic apparatus exists precisely to broker the surrender of the Kingship of Christ to the Masonic State.

Reduction of the Supernatural Order to Naturalistic Humanism: The “Magnifica Humanitas” of Antichrist

Banfi reveals the anthropocentric core of this false peace when he links it to the antipope’s first encyclical, Magnifica Humanitas (“Magnificent Humanity”), describing it as “an irreducible optimism about humanity.” This title alone condemns the document. The Catholic Church does not proclaim the magnificence of humanity; she proclaims the Magnificat of the Lord and the misery of fallen man. The Syllabus condemns the proposition that “Human reason, without any reference whatsoever to God, is the sole arbiter of truth and falsehood, and of good and evil” (Error 3). The “peace” of Leo XIV is the peace of the Civitas Terrena—the earthly city described by St. Augustine in De Civitate Dei—which seeks its end in temporal tranquility, not the Civitas Dei which lives by faith and hopes for the Kingdom of Heaven. Banfi’s citation of the Bob Dylan song “Masters of War” (1962) as a papal reference point is the definitive signature of the Church of the New Advent: the Word of God is replaced by the protest songs of the counter-culture; the Depositum Fidei is discarded for the archives of the Institute for Economics and Peace (Global Peace Index 2026).

Perversion of Augustinian Spirituality: The City of God vs. The City of Man

Banfi claims Leo XIV bears witness to “a man of great interior freedom in the face of the pressures of the world… extraordinary serenity,” rooting this in the Augustinian contrast between the earthly city (power, wealth, pleasure) and the city of God (hope). This is a calculated deception. St. Augustine teaches that the peace of the earthly city is a tranquillitas ordinis—an ordered concord—only insofar as it serves the peace of the heavenly City. The true Augustinian does not dialogue with the earthly city to improve its management; he calls it to conversion. Pius XI, in Quas Primas (1925), the very encyclical establishing the Feast of Christ the King, declares: “When God and Jesus Christ… were removed from laws and states and when authority was derived not from God but from men, the foundations of that authority were destroyed.” The “peace” proposed by the usurper is precisely the fruit of that removal: a peace sine Christo, a peace negotiated by the Oasis Foundation and the Institute for Economics and Peace, not imposed by the Scepter of Justice (Ps. 44:7).

The “Missionary Experience” in Peru: Liberation Theology’s Poisoned Fruit

The article highlights the usurper’s refusal of a security escort during the Shining Path terrorism in Peru and a 1980s photo at a “Young Augustinians for Peace” protest against NATO missiles in Comiso, Sicily. This is the hagiography of a prelato of the Teologia della Liberazione. The “peace demonstrations” against Western defense during the Cold War, while communist guerrillas butchered peasants and priests in Latin America, were the hallmark of the clergy subverted by the KGB and the Masonic lodges (cf. the testimony of Bella Dodd, the Alta Vendita). True Catholic missionaries in Peru—like the martyrs of the Cristero spirit or the traditional Dominicans—preached the Rosary and the Social Kingship of Christ, not “interreligious dialogue” and nuclear disarmament treaties. The “conscience of Stanislav Petrov” is elevated as a model: “The conscience of one man can be worth as much as the entire world.” This is the Protestant heresy of the private judgment of conscience, condemned by the Council of Trent (Sess. VI, Can. 20) and Lamentabili Sane Exitu (Prop. 25: “Faith, as assent of the mind, is ultimately based on a sum of probabilities“). The conscience that saves is the conscience formed by the Magisterium and the Law of God, not the autonomous conscience of a Soviet officer preventing a launch.

Interreligious Dialogue and Multilateralism: The Masonic “Fraternity” of the Encyclical Fratelli Tutti

Banfi explicitly lists the duties of the faithful: “We have the responsibility to build it, to pray for it, to promote interreligious dialogue and to ask the powerful of the earth to work for it.” This is the program of the abomination of desolation. Pius XI in Quas Primas commands: “Let rulers of states therefore not refuse public veneration and obedience to the reigning Christ… if they wish to maintain their authority inviolate.” The Syllabus condemns: “The civil government… has a right to an indirect negative power over religious affairs” (Error 41) and “The Roman Pontiff can, and ought to, reconcile himself, and come to terms with progress, liberalism and modern civilization” (Error 80). The “peace” of Leo XIV is the Pax Masonica: a universal brotherhood without the Fatherhood of God, a “fraternity” built on the ruins of the Unam Sanctam. The reference to “multilateralism” and “international law” as pillars of peace reveals the goal: a global governance structure (the UN/WEF axis) where the “pope” serves as the spiritual chaplain of the New World Order, having abdicated the Potestas Clavium for a seat at the table of the Synagogue of Satan (Apoc. 2:9; 3:9).

The “Gift” That Precedes Us: Grace Denatured into Humanitarianism

Banfi states: “Before anything else, it is the proclamation of a gift that precedes us. Peace is a gift.” He speaks of grace but means humanitarian aid. The true Donum Dei is the Pax Christi which the world cannot give (John 14:27). It is the fruit of the Unbloody Sacrifice of Calvary, applied through the Sacraments, beginning with Baptism and Penance. The “peace” of the conciliar sect is a psychological state or a geopolitical ceasefire. Lamentabili Sane Exitu condemns the Modernist error: “The dogmas of faith should be understood according to their practical function, i.e., as binding in action, rather than as principles of belief” (Prop. 26). This anthology reduces the Kingship of Christ to a “practical function” of conflict resolution. It is the heresy of action (Americanism/Modernism), condemned by Leo XIII in Testem Benevolentiae (1899).

The “Third World War Fought Piecemeal”: Francis’s Legacy, Leo XIV’s Continuity

The article notes Leo XIV “takes up Pope Francis’ warning about ‘a third world war fought piecemeal’.” This continuity of error is the mark of the neo-church. The “popes” of the conciliar sect function as a relay team in the Masonic stadium, each passing the baton of revolution. Francis (Bergoglio) introduced the paradigm shift from doctrine to “process”; Leo XIV (Prevost) manages the “process” with Augustinian veneer. The goal is identical: the destruction of the Christendom ideal (Quas Primas) and its replacement with a civilization of love (Paul VI) / fraternity (Francis) / disarmed peace (Leo XIV)—all synonyms for the Kingdom of Antichrist where Christ is dethroned and Man is enthroned.

Conclusion: The Only Peace Is the Reign of Christ the King

The anthology *Disarmed and Disarming* is a weapon—not against war, but against the Social Kingship of Christ. It proposes a peace without the Cross (despite the lip service to the Passion), a peace without the Conversion of Nations to the Catholic Faith, a peace without the Confessional State. It is the peace of the whore of Babylon (Apoc. 17), drunk on the blood of the martyrs of Tradition, offering the chalice of “dialogue” to the kings of the earth. True Catholics, adhering to the Sedevacantist position—the only theological hypothesis that saves the indefectibility of the Church and the Papacy—know that Pax Christi in Regno Christi is the only peace. As Pius XI commanded: “The state must leave the same freedom to the members of Orders and Congregations… who are indeed the most valiant helpers of the Pastors of the Church and contribute most to the expansion and establishment of Christ’s Kingdom.” The “peace” of Leo XIV is the silence of the catacombs where the true Mass is said, and the noise of the Novus Ordo assembly where the world applauds itself. Non est pax, dicit Dominus, impiis (Isa. 48:22). There is no peace, saith the Lord, for the wicked—nor for the usurpers who sell it.
