The EWTN News portal reports on the armed assault on the Greek Orthodox Church of St. George in Hamoud, Jordan, during a funeral on October 23, 2026, which left nine dead. The article details the tactical brutality of the gunmen and the subsequent investigation by Jordanian authorities. However, the core of the dispatch consists of the reactions from the “patriarchs and heads of churches in Jerusalem,” the “Latin Patriarchate of Jerusalem,” the “Greek Orthodox Patriarchate,” and the “Jordan Council of Churches.” These entities, speaking for the conciliar sect and its schismatic Orthodox counterparts, unanimously frame the atrocity not as a consequence of the rejection of Christ’s Kingship, but as an attack on “national unity,” “social peace,” “coexistence,” and the “right to worship freely.” They call for ringing bells in solidarity, emphasizing a shared “history and destiny” between Muslims and Christians. This concerted response reveals the total capitulation of the post-conciliar hierarchy to Masonic naturalism: they exploit the blood of schismatics to advance the anti-dogmatic religion of “human fraternity,” betraying the Social Kingship of Christ and the absolute necessity of the Catholic Church for salvation.
The Ecumenical Farce: Schismatics and Modernists United in Naturalistic Solidarity
The cited article presents a grotesque theater of “unity.” The “patriarchs and heads of churches in Jerusalem” – a consortium comprising the Greek Orthodox (schismatics since 1054), the “Latin Patriarchate” (the local face of the conciliar usurpation), and various Protestant denominations – issue a joint statement describing the targeting of mourners as “a grave crime against God and humanity.” Note the order: “God and humanity.” This inversion is the hallmark of Modernism: the divine honor is subordinated to the humanitarian category. They call for bells to ring at noon “in remembrance of those killed and in solidarity with their families and the wounded.” This is not the De Profundis for the repose of souls, nor the Sub Tuum Praesidium imploring the conversion of the infidels; it is a Masonic signal of “interreligious dialogue,” a liturgical act profaned to serve the religion of man.
The “Latin Patriarchate of Jerusalem” – the mouthpiece of the Bergoglian antipapacy in the Holy Land – declares the attack violated “the sanctity of places of worship and the right to life and to worship freely and with dignity.” Here the heresy of religious liberty (condemned by Pope Pius IX in the Syllabus Errorum, Error 15: “Every man is free to embrace and profess that religion which, guided by the light of reason, he shall consider true”; Error 16: “Man may, in the observance of any religion whatever, find the way of eternal salvation”) is proclaimed as the highest good. The “right to worship freely” extends, in this theology, to the public exercise of the Muslim cult which denies the Divinity of Christ, the Trinity, and the Redemption. This is not the voice of the Church; it is the voice of the Synagogue of Satan (Apoc. 2:9) masquerading as the Bride of Christ.
The Kingship of Christ Denied: The Plague of Laicism Triumphant
Pope Pius XI, in Quas Primas (1925), diagnosed the exact malady on display in Jordan: “This plague is the secularism of our times, so-called laicism, its errors and wicked endeavors… It began with the denial of Christ the Lord’s reign over all nations; the Church’s authority to teach men, to issue laws, to govern nations… was denied. And then, slowly, the Christian religion began to be equated with other false religions and shamelessly placed in the same category.” The statements from Jordan are the fulfillment of this prophecy. The “Greek Orthodox Patriarchate” asserts: “We are the children of this land, its living roots, and partners in its history, present, and future. We will remain here as witnesses to the faith, however great the challenges.” Which faith? The faith of Photius, of Cerularius, of Palamas – a faith that rejects the Filioque, the Primacy of the Roman Pontiff, the Immaculate Conception, and the very nature of the Church as Una, Sancta, Catholica, Apostolica. To call this “witness to the faith” is blasphemy. It is witness to human tradition (Matt. 15:6), to the synagoga Satanae that St. John Damascene called the “forerunner of the Antichrist.”
The “Jordan Council of Churches” emphasizes “solidarity among all communities in Jordan and rejected attempts to sow religious division.” Religious division is willed by God as a consequence of unbelief (Luke 12:51: “Do you think that I have come to give peace on earth? No, I tell you, but rather division”). The only true unity is unitas fidei in the Corpus Christi, the Catholic Church. The “unity” preached by these hirelings is the unity of the Tower of Babel, the civitas terrena built on the rejection of the Civitas Dei. King Abdullah II’s pledge that “treacherous bullets could divide Jordanians have been thwarted by our resilience and unity” is the language of the Prince of this world, not the Vicar of Christ. It is the Pax Romana of the Antichrist, enforced by the silence of the Church’s true pastors.
The Silence of the Sacraments: A Theology of the Cross Replaced by a Sociology of Victimhood
Nowhere in the reported statements is there mention of the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, the Sacraments, the state of grace, the reality of Hell, or the necessity of Baptism of Water for salvation (Extra Ecclesiam Nulla Salus). The victims died at a Greek Orthodox funeral – outside the visible communion of the Catholic Church, without the Last Rites administered by a valid priest, without the Indulgentiae of the Church. Their eternal destiny is the supreme concern of the true Church. The conciliar hierarchy is silent on this. They speak only of “recovery of the wounded,” “protection of places of worship,” “confronting extremist rhetoric.” This is pure Pelagian naturalism. They have transformed the Church Militant into an NGO for “social cohesion.”
The Syllabus condemns the proposition: “The Church is not a true and perfect society, entirely free… but it appertains to the civil power to define what are the rights of the Church” (Error 19). The “Latin Patriarchate” submits to this error by praising Jordan’s “national unity” as “a safeguard against terrorism and extremism,” effectively making the secular state the guarantor of the Church’s existence. This is the Gallicanism of the Modernists: the Church becomes a department of the Masonic state, begging for “rights” instead of proclaiming Christus Vincit, Christus Regnat, Christus Imperat.
The Masonic Blueprint: “Human Fraternity” as the New Gospel
The rhetoric of “shared history,” “common destiny,” “one family,” “living roots” is lifted directly from the Document on Human Fraternity signed by the antipope Bergoglio and the Grand Imam of Al-Azhar in Abu Dhabi (2019) – a document that declares the “pluralism and diversity of religions… willed by God in His wisdom.” This is formal heresy, contradicting the First Vatican Council (Dei Filius, Can. 1: “If anyone shall say that the one true God… can be known with certainty by the natural light of human reason… let him be anathema”) and the defined dogma that the Catholic Church is the only means of salvation. The Jordan statements are the local application of this Masonic blueprint. The ringing of bells at noon – a time traditionally dedicated to the Angelus commemorating the Incarnation – is perverted into a signal for the Masonic fraternity. As the False Fatima Apparitions document exposes, the “Fatima” operation itself was a Masonic psychological operation to divert attention from the “modernist apostasy within the Church” by focusing on external threats (communism) while the internal enemy – the very hierarchy now speaking in Jordan – dismantled the Faith. The Jordan attack is used identically: to strengthen the “interreligious” narrative that obscures the apostasia (2 Thess. 2:3).
Sedevacantist Reality: The True Church Mourns, the Counter-Church Celebrates Dialogue
From the perspective of integral Catholic faith – the faith of the Syllabus, of Quas Primas, of Pascendi Dominici Gregis, of Cum Ex Apostolatus Officio – the See of Peter has been vacant since the death of Pope Pius XII (1958). The men speaking in this article – the “Latin Patriarch,” the “Greek Orthodox Patriarch,” the “heads of churches” – possess no jurisdiction, no mission, no authority. They are, in the words of St. Robert Bellarmine (cited in the Defense of Sedevacantism), “manifest heretics… by that very fact ceases to be Pope and head, just as he ceases to be a Christian and member of the body of the Church.” The “Latin Patriarch” represents an antipope (Leo XIV, Robert Prevost) who is a manifest heretic by his adherence to Vatican II’s Dignitatis Humanae, Nostra Aetate, Unitatis Redintegratio – documents that contradict the Syllabus and the defined dogma of the Church’s necessity. The Greek Orthodox are schismatics, cut off from the Head. Their “unity” is the unity of the corpses in the valley of dry bones (Ezek. 37), awaiting the Spiritus Domini which only the true Church possesses.
The attack in Jordan is a chastisement permitted by God for the apostasy of the nations and the silence of the true pastors. The response of the conciliar sect is to deepen the apostasy. They offer the world panem et circenses – bells, candles, slogans of “unity” – while withholding the Panis Angelicus, the Veritas, the Via. They have made the House of God a den of thieves (Matt. 21:13), stealing the glory due to Christ the King to offer it to the idol of “Humanity.”
Let the faithful know: There is no salvation in “national unity,” no redemption in “interreligious dialogue,” no peace in “coexistence” with the enemies of the Cross. Pax Christi in Regno Christi. Peace is only possible in the Kingdom of Christ (Pius XI, Quas Primas). The blood spilled in Hamoud cries out not for “solidarity,” but for the Social Reign of Christ the King – the only order that can restrain the mysterium iniquitatis (2 Thess. 2:7) now unleashed upon the world. The conciliar hierarchy, by preaching the fraternity of the Tower of Babel, has sealed its own condemnation: “Woe to you who call evil good, and good evil” (Isa. 5:20).
