The EWTN News portal reports on the kidnapping of conciliar “priest” Clemente Morales Topete in Culiacán, Sinaloa, detailing his physical torture at the hands of a criminal gang and the subsequent statement by the local “bishop,” José de Jesús Herrera Quiñones. The “bishop” frames the ordeal primarily as a violation of human dignity, calls for justice and peace through strengthened civic strategies and societal solidarity, and invokes “Our Lady of the Rosary” for the families of the disappeared. This report exemplifies the conciliar sect’s total capitulation to secular humanism, reducing the supernatural mystery of priestly suffering to a humanitarian crisis managed by Masonic state mechanisms.
Reduction of the Priesthood to Humanitarian Functionary
The cited article relates that “Father” Morales was “picked up” — a euphemism for kidnapping — “beaten and even sustained severe burns on his body, while being pressed for information that he didn’t have.” The “bishop” Herrera describes the victim’s return “in a deplorable state, showing clear signs of the violence he had been subjected to.” Nowhere does the conciliar prelate interpret this suffering through the lens of alter Christus, the priest as victim united to the Hostia of Calvary. Instead, the narrative focuses exclusively on “physical and psychological torture,” “arbitrary detention,” and the “psychological and emotional impact.” This is the language of the United Nations, not the language of the Church Militant. The Summum Sacerdotium is emptied of its propitiatory character; the priest becomes a mere NGO worker whose “mission” is vaguely defined as “fulfilling their mission” without reference to the Missio of saving souls through the Unbloody Sacrifice and the administration of the sacraments.
The “Bishop” as Civil Rights Advocate
“Bishop” Herrera’s statement is a masterclass in naturalistic bureaucratese. He “urged against ‘fueling speculation, naming those responsible without evidence, or contributing to misinformation'” — the vocabulary of a police spokesman, not a successor of the Apostles. He expresses “confidence that the investigations will ‘fully determine what happened and that those responsible will be brought to justice.'” This justice is purely temporal, the iustitia civilis of the Civitas Terrena. He acknowledges the “efforts made to quell violence” by the secular authorities but warns they “have ‘not been sufficient’ to ‘restore the tranquility that our city so desperately needs.'” The remedy proposed is “strengthened strategies regarding prevention, security, the search for missing persons, the administration of justice, and comprehensive support for victims.” This is the program of the Civitas Diaboli masquerading as pastoral care. Pope Pius XI, in Quas Primas, thundered: “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 entire human society had to be shaken, because it lacked a stable and strong foundation.” The “bishop” of Culiacán builds on sand, petitioning the very Masonic state that persecutes the Church for “security” and “justice.”
False Peace, False Queen: The Ecumenical “Our Lady of the Rosary”
The “bishop” concludes by invoking “the intercession of Our Lady of the Rosary, patroness of the Diocese of Culiacán, that she might ‘accompany families searching for their loved ones, strengthen those who are suffering, and touch the hearts of those who have chosen the path of violence.'” This invocation is stripped of all Marian mediation ad Jesum per Mariam for the conversion of sinners and the triumph of the Regnum Christi. It is a plea for natural consolation and natural “peace” — the peace of the world, which Christ explicitly distinguished from His own: “Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, do I give unto you” (John 14:27). The “Our Lady of the Rosary” of the conciliar sect is often the vehicle for the Fatimaist operation analyzed in the theological objections: a tool for ecumenism and diversion from apostasy, focusing on external threats (communism, now cartels) while ignoring the modernist apostasy within. The “bishop” asks the criminals to “reflect on the harm you are causing, to listen to the voice of your conscience, and to turn your gaze toward God” — a Pelagian appeal to natural virtue devoid of the necessity of grace, baptism, and submission to the Social Reign of Christ the King.
The Syllabus Condemned: Separation of Church and State in Action
The entire framework of the “bishop’s” address presupposes the condemned errors of the Syllabus. Error 55: “The Church ought to be separated from the State, and the State from the Church.” Error 39: “The State, as being the origin and source of all rights, is endowed with a certain right not circumscribed by any limits.” Error 42: “In the case of conflicting laws enacted by the two powers, the civil law prevails.” The “bishop” does not demand the Libertas Ecclesiae — the freedom of the Church to teach, govern, and sanctify without state interference. He demands “security” and “justice” from the state, implicitly recognizing the state’s competence over the temporal order as autonomous from God’s law. He urges “participation of society” and “responsibility that falls to every citizen,” echoing the democratic myth. Pope Pius IX condemned the proposition that “The civil government, even when in the hands of an infidel sovereign, has a right to an indirect negative power over religious affairs” (Error 41). Yet the conciliar hierarchy operates entirely within this Masonic paradigm, begging the “infidel sovereign” (the cartel-infiltrated state) for protection.
Lamentabili Sane: The Modernist Emptying of the Supernatural
The article’s silence on the supernatural order is the gravest accusation. There is no mention of the Most Holy Sacrifice, the Sacraments, the State of Grace, Final Judgment, or the Kingship of Christ over nations. This aligns perfectly with the Modernist propositions condemned by St. Pius X in Lamentabili Sane Exitu: “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); “Christian doctrine was initially Jewish, but through gradual development, it became first Pauline, then Johannine, and finally Greek and universal” (Prop. 60) — here reduced to secular humanitarianism. The “priest” and “bishop” function as functionaries of the neo-church, their validity nullified by the Novus Ordo rites and the heretical intent of the conciliar “ordinaries.” As the Defense of Sedevacantism demonstrates, a manifest heretic loses office ipso facto; the line of usurpers from John XXIII to Leo XIV (Robert Prevost) has produced a hierarchy that is non-Christian and therefore non-member of the Church, incapable of jurisdiction. “Bishop” Herrera is a layman in purple; “Father” Morales a layman in a collar. Their suffering, while humanly tragic, possesses no ex opere operato ecclesiastical significance within the conciliar sect.
Symptomatic Conclusion: The Abomination of Desolation in Sinaloa
This incident is not an anomaly but the logical fruit of the conciliar revolution. The paramasonic structure occupying the Vatican has replaced the Social Reign of Christ the King with the cult of man. The “bishop” of Culiacán does not proclaim “Pax Christi in Regno Christi”; he manages a crisis for the Church of the New Advent. The kidnapping of a “priest” by cartels is the temporal chastisement of a nation that has abandoned the Derechos de Dios for the human rights of Masonic liberalism. The only remedy is not “strengthened strategies” of the secular arm, but the restoration of the Catholic Confessional State, the public recognition of Christ the King over Mexican laws and society, and the return to the Traditional Latin Mass and the integral Faith preserved only outside the conciliar sect. “There is no other name under heaven given to men by which we must be saved” (Acts 4:12) — neither the name of “human dignity,” nor “justice,” nor “peace,” nor the “Our Lady of the Rosary” of the ecumenical narrative. Only Jesus Christus, Rex Regum.
