Conciliar Sect’s Weekly Parade of Apostasy: Sinicization, Fake Clergy, and Democratic Delusions

The Pillar, a flagship publication of the neo-conservative establishment occupying the Vatican’s periphery, publishes its “Friday Pillar Post” for November 6, 2026, authored by Ed Condon. The dispatch catalogues the latest convulsions of the conciliar sect: the Hungarian episcopate groveling before a Masonic state, the Chinese “bishops” proclaiming Communist sinicization as “intrinsic to catholicity,” the Syro-Malabar hierarchy capitulating to Roman modernist liturgical engineering, an Egyptian impostor celebrating the Novus Ordo in Turin for months undetected, the FOCUS movement embroiled in scandal, the German “bishops” openly warring over the pace of revolution, the Roman Rota belatedly condemning extra-judicial “lists,” and PETA attempting canonical litigation against bullfighting. This cavalcade of horrors demonstrates conclusively that the post-conciliar structure is not merely in crisis but is the very engine of apostasy, a synagoga Satanae (synagogue of Satan) where the mysterium iniquitatis (mystery of iniquity, 2 Thess 2:7) operates without restraint.

The Democratic Delusion: Rendering Unto Caesar What Belongs to God

Condon opens with a paean to American democracy, comparing it sentimentally to baseball. He confesses writing in his wife for county executive and himself for sheriff, boasting this as “saving democracy.” This laicism — condemned by Pius XI in Quas Primas as the “plague of our times, so-called laicism” — is the operating religion of the neo-conservative Catholic. Condon writes: “I actually believe I am doing my bit to save democracy, rather than sabotage it.” Here is the crux: the conciliar “laity” has substituted the Social Reign of Christ the King for the idol of popular sovereignty. Pius XI taught: “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.” Condon’s “civic duty” is participation in a system intrinsically opposed to Dignitatis Humanae‘s false “religious liberty” — a system where “ballots are now always a dozen or so pages long” with “referenda on various amendments… usually amounting to less oversight for elected officials or permission to gerrymander at will.” He votes “straight ticket no” not from Catholic principle but from partisan cynicism. This is the spiritus mundi (spirit of the world) masquerading as patriotism. The Syllabus of Errors (Pius IX, 1864) condemns: “The State, as being the origin and source of all rights, is endowed with a certain right not circumscribed by any limits” (Prop. 39) and “The Church ought to be separated from the State, and the State from the Church” (Prop. 55). Condon’s entire preamble is a practical profession of these condemned errors.

Hungary: The Episcopate of Human Respect Before the Masonic State

The Hungarian “bishops’ conference” asks forgiveness for collaboration with the Communist regime — after the Masonic Prime Minister Péter Magyar publishes secret police files. The “bishops” say: “The names of individuals associated with the Church who appear in the documents… conceal a wide variety of stories. Some of them genuinely collaborated… On their behalf, we ask the victims and their families for forgiveness.” Note the language: “conceal a wide variety of stories,” “genuinely collaborated” — the bureaucratic equivocation of men who fear the state more than God. Where is the anathematization of Communism as intrinsically perverse (Pius XI, Divini Redemptoris)? Where is the condemnation of the current Masonic government of Magyar? The “bishops” call for “careful appraisal of the newly published documents” and “recognition of the Church’s resistance” — a desperate attempt to claim both sides. This is the politica ecclesiastica of the Ostpolitik era: surrender dressed as dialogue. St. Pius X in Lamentabili Sane Exitu condemned the Modernist proposition: “The Church listening cooperates in such a way with the Church teaching in defining truths of faith, that the Church teaching should only approve the common opinions of the Church listening” (Prop. 6). Here the “Church listening” is the Hungarian hierarchy listening to the Masonic state, adjusting its narrative accordingly.

China: Sinicization Proclaimed as Essentia Catholicae

Archbishop Joseph Li Shan of Beijing and Cardinal Stephen Chow of Hong Kong defend the “policy of sinicization” at a conference in Rome. Li declares: “just as the most recent Synod of Bishops promoted ‘walking together,’ the affairs of the Church in China are entirely managed jointly by Chinese clergy, women religious and the faithful… This is precisely the meaning of the sinicization of the Church that we propose today… not an external add-on to the Catholic Church, as if it were optional… rather, it is intrinsic to the Church’s catholicity.”

This is formal heresy. “Sinicization” means submission of the Church to the Communist Party — the “supremacy of state authority and Communist Party dogma over the Church’s hierarchy and teachings.” Li Shan calls this intrinsic to catholicity. This is the abomination of desolation (Matt 24:15) standing in the holy place. The 2018 “agreement” with the Chinese government — negotiated by the usurper Bergoglio and continued by the usurper Prevost (Leo XIV) — surrendered the divine right of episcopal appointment to an atheist totalitarian regime. Pius XI in Quas Primas thundered: “The Church, established by Christ as a perfect society, demands for itself by a right belonging to it, which it cannot renounce, full freedom and independence from secular authority.” The Syllabus condemns: “The ecclesiastical power ought not to exercise its authority without the permission and assent of the civil government” (Prop. 20) and “National churches, withdrawn from the authority of the Roman pontiff and altogether separated, can be established” (Prop. 37). The “Chinese Patriotic Catholic Association” is such a national church, schismatic by definition. That “Cardinal” Chow and “Archbishop” Li Shan proclaim this schism as “catholicity” proves they are not Catholic bishops but functionaries of the Antichrist’s structure. The “underground Church” — the true confessors — have been betrayed into the hands of the Great Red Dragon (Apoc 12:3).

Syro-Malabar: Liturgical Engineering as Tyranny

The “Major Archbishop Raphael Thattil” dissolves a “Special Tribunal” created to discipline priests resisting a “uniform liturgy” imposed by the Vatican’s “supreme court.” The dispute: priests and laity in Ernakulam-Angamaly favor versus populum celebration (a Novus Ordo innovation adopted 50 years ago); Rome demands a hybrid: versus populum for Liturgy of the Word, ad orientem for Liturgy of the Eucharist, then versus populum again. This is liturgical chaos as administrative weapon. The “tribunal” was suspended by the “Vatican’s supreme court” — the Signatura Apostolica of the conciliar sect — not for doctrinal reasons but because the resistance was too public, too embarrassing. The “uniform liturgy” is a fabrication of the Consilium spirit: novitas for its own sake. St. Pius X in Lamentabili condemned: “The sacraments arose as a result of the interpretation by the Apostles or their successors of Christ’s thoughts and intentions, under the influence and encouragement of circumstances and events” (Prop. 40) — the Modernist evolution of the liturgy. Here the “Oriental” rite is being Latinized into a Novus Ordo hybrid, destroying lex orandi, lex credendi. The “priests” resisting are resisting a novelty, not Tradition; but their “bishops” enforce the novelty with “tribunals.” This is the auto-demolition of the Church (Paul VI’s phrase) in real time.

Turin: The Novus Ordo’s Nulla Ordinatio Exposed

An Egyptian man, “Salam Faragalla,” pretends to be a Coptic Catholic priest for four months in three Turin churches, presenting “forged documents,” saying Mass, hearing confessions, anointing the sick. The Archdiocese of Turin files a complaint for fraud — not for sacrilege, not for invalid sacraments, not for the souls damned by invalid absolutions. The article admits: “The story raises some real questions about diocesan processes and due diligence, putting it mildly.”

This is the reductio ad absurdum of the new “ordination” rites (Paul VI, 1968) and the novus ordo priesthood. If a layman can simulate the “presbyterate” for months undetected, the visible distinction between priest and laity has been obliterated. The “Coptic Catholic” hierarchy — itself in communion with the usurper — failed to verify. The Turin “archdiocese” failed to verify. The “faithful” received invalid sacraments. Ex opere operato requires minister legitimatus. The Council of Trent (Sess. VII, Can. 10) anathematizes those who say “ministers… can be appointed by the people or by secular power.” Here a secular impostor was the minister. The “complaint of fraud” is a civil lawsuit — the conciliar sect’s only recourse, having abandoned forum ecclesiasticum. Pius XII in Sacramentum Ordinis (1947) defined the matter and form of Orders; the 1968 rite changed both. Doubtful Orders = doubtful sacraments = doubtful Church.

FOCUS: The Neo-Catechumenal Rot

Condon boasts of The Pillar’s “straight talk” on FOCUS (Fellowship of Catholic University Students): allegations of “sexism,” “evangelizing methodology,” “unfair labor practices,” “insufficient supervision of its founder.” He writes: “That’s the reaction I want to our news, because that is what real journalism gets you.” This is the spiritus pharisaicus: the “journalist” as judge of a movement born of the novus ordo “new evangelization.” FOCUS is a fruit of the Conciliar tree: lay-led, emotion-driven, versus populum spirituality, “missionary” without missio canonica. Its “founder and former CEO” — Curtis Martin — built an empire on charismatic enthusiasm, not sacerdotal authority. The “criticisms” are internecine squabbles within the sect. Condon’s “agnosticism” about FOCUS reveals the indifferentism of the neo-conservative: “In the present day it is no longer expedient that the Catholic religion should be held as the only religion of the State” (Syllabus, Prop. 77) becomes “In the present day it is no longer expedient that the Catholic organization be held as the only true apostolate.”

Germany: The Schism Within the Schism

Two statements from the German “bishops’ conference”: the current chairman stresses “full communion with the Holy Father and in fidelity to the Magisterium” in the “push for reform”; the predecessor attacks “Leo XIV” personally, calling his engagement “inadequate and… deeply problematic.” Both are Modernists. The “reform” is the Synodal Way: women’s “ordination,” homosexuality, intercommunion, abolition of celibacy. The “chairman” wants it cum Petro; the “predecessor” wants it contra Petrum (the usurper). This is the dialectic of the Revolution: thesis (Bergoglio’s Amoris Laetitia), antithesis (German “bishops” pushing faster), synthesis (the “Leo XIV” “synodal church”). St. Pius X in Pascendi described Modernism as “the synthesis of all heresies.” The German “church” is its laboratory. The Syllabus condemns: “Roman pontiffs and ecumenical councils have wandered outside the limits of their powers, have usurped the rights of princes, and have even erred in defining matters of faith and morals” (Prop. 23) — the German “bishops” apply this to the usurper from the left.

The Roman Rota: Belated Justice for the Credibly Accused

A Roman Rota sentence condemns “the practice of publishing lists of clergy ‘credibly accused’ of ‘substantiated allegations’ despite no legal process, not actual finding of guilt, and no recognizable right of defence.” Condon notes: “Rome, through various departments, has been condemning these lists for years, though scant attention has been paid by most dioceses and religious orders in North America.”

Why now? Because lawsuits threaten the “dioceses'” assets. The “lists” were a media weapon of the lavender mafia to purge conservative priests and protect homosexual networks. The “Rota” — the highest appellate tribunal of the conciliar sect — issues a sententia that changes nothing. The “credibly accused” standard is extra-judicial, extra-canonical, extra-evangelical. It violates Canon 1717 (1917 Code) and natural justice. But the “dioceses” ignore Rome because the conciliar “bishops” are not subject to canon law but to the spirit of the Council. The “wave of lawsuits” is the only language they understand: mammona.

PETA: The Absurdist Theater of the Novus Ordo

Condon mocks PETA’s “canonist” bringing a case to the Vatican over bullfighting. He writes: “I suppose we should remember that these are the same people who think cheese is a war crime. So it’s possible the lack of animal proteins does something to the cognitive-evaluative process.”

The mockery is deserved but misplaced. PETA targets the “Vatican” because the “Vatican” is a soft target for every anti-Catholic lobby. The “canonist” knows the “dicasteries” will entertain any novelty. Bullfighting is a cultural issue; the “Vatican” has no doctrine on it. But the real scandal: the “pope” (Leo XIV) receives PETA activists, the “dicasteries” entertain their “canonical” complaints, while the Divine Majesty is offended daily by the Novus Ordo Missae, by Communion in the hand, by altar girls, by homosexual “blessings” (Fiducia Supplicans). PETA is a distraction; the abomination is inside the walls.

Symptomatic Conclusion: The Parousia of the Antichrist’s Structure

This “Pillar Post” is a diagnosis disguised as a news roundup. Every item reveals the conciliar sect as:

  • Politically: subservient to Masonic states (Hungary, China, USA), celebrating democracy as idol.
  • Doctrinally: proclaiming Communist sinicization as “intrinsic to catholicity” — haeresis maxima.
  • Liturgically: engineering hybrid rites, destroying lex orandi, simulating priesthood.
  • Sacramentally: unable to distinguish a valid priest from an Egyptian impostor for four months.
  • Juridically: ignoring its own courts, ruling by media lists and lawsuits.
  • Spiritually: reducing the Church to “organizations” (FOCUS) judged by “journalism.”

Pius XI in Quas Primas established the Feast of Christ the King “to address the needs of the present times and provide a special remedy against the plague that poisons human society. And this plague is the secularism of our times, so-called laicism.” The “Pillar” and its “pope” Leo XIV are the plague. They are the abomination of desolation (Matt 24:15) standing where the Sancta Sanctorum should be. The true Church — Ecclesia Militans — endures in the catacombs of Tradition, under valid bishops and priests, celebrating the Immemorial Mass, awaiting the Parousia of the true Rex Regum. Non praevalebunt (Matt 16:18).
