The EWTN portal reports on a Chiclayo priest, Father Hugo Gabriel Sánchez, who effusively praises his “close friend” Robert Prevost — the manifest heretic and usurper currently occupying the Vatican as “Pope” Leo XIV — ahead of the antipope’s scheduled visit to Peru from November 11–16, 2026. The article functions as a hagiographic puff piece for a false pope, presenting the antipope’s personal affability as evidence of sanctity while completely ignoring his public adhesion to the conciliar apostasy, the New Mass, false ecumenism, and religious liberty. This propaganda serves to legitimize the paramasonic structure occupying the Vatican by reducing the papacy to a personality cult.
The EWTN Propaganda Apparatus Manufactures Consent for the Usurper
The cited article originates from EWTN News Español, the Spanish-language arm of the Global Catholic Network founded by the late Mother Angelica — a network that has long served as the primary media mouthpiece for the conciliar sect’s “conservative” wing. The piece is authored by Almudena Martínez-Bordiú, identified as “Rome correspondent for ACI Prensa and EWTN.” This is not journalism; it is institutional stenography for the neo-church. The article’s structure — replete with sentimental anecdotes about birthday wishes, “hearty laughter,” and the antipope’s alleged “serenity” and “firmness” — is designed to bypass the intellect and appeal to sentiment, the hallmark of modernist pastoral strategy. No mention is made of the Faith, the Mass, the Sacraments, or the salvation of souls. The entire narrative revolves around human relationships and institutional continuity.
Linguistic Engineering: Sanitizing the Antipope
The linguistic level reveals the ideological conditioning at work. The article consistently refers to Prevost as “Pope Leo,” “pontiff,” “Holy Father,” and “successor of St. Peter” — titles that belong exclusively to the Vicar of Christ. By the unchanging law of the Church, Cum ex Apostolatus Officio (Pope Paul IV, 1559), a manifest heretic cannot be validly elected, and if elected, his elevation is “null, void, and of no effect.” Prevost, as a public adherent of the Second Vatican Council’s heresies (religious liberty, false ecumenism, collegiality, the New Mass), is a manifest heretic. He is not the Pope. He is an antipope. The article’s refusal to acknowledge this reality, instead using the language of legitimacy, constitutes a participation in the crimen laesae majestatis Divinae (crime against Divine Majesty) by usurping Christ’s authority.
The priest Sánchez describes the antipope’s election as merely “a change in the color of his cassock.” This blasphemous trivialization reduces the Petrine Office to an ecclesiastical costume change. It echoes the modernist heresy that the papacy is a juridical function rather than a divine institution. St. Robert Bellarmine teaches: “A non-Christian in no way can be Pope… he who is not a Christian is not a member of the Church, and a manifest heretic is not a Christian… therefore, a manifest heretic cannot be Pope” (De Romano Pontifice, II, 30). The “cassock” of a heretic covers a wolf, not a shepherd.
Theological Bankruptcy: The “Good Shepherd” Who Abandons the Flock
Sánchez claims the antipope “reflected very well the image of Christ the good shepherd: a shepherd who was always close to his people, whose doors were always open… whose heart was ready and whose time was available to listen to you patiently and calmly.” This is the sentimental counterfeit of the Good Shepherd. The true Good Shepherd lays down His life for the sheep (John 10:11) — which means defending the deposit of faith integrum et inviolatum (whole and inviolate). The antipope Leo XIV, by his public profession of the conciliar errors, has scattered the sheep. He promotes the “fraternity” of Fratelli Tutti, the religious indifferentism of Assisi, the liturgical revolution of Paul VI. An open door to error is not pastoral charity; it is the gate of hell.
Pius XI, in Quas Primas (1925), condemns the very secularism this visit embodies: “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 antipope’s visit to Peru is hailed as “a gift from God” by a priest of the neo-church. In reality, it is a visit by the head of the abomination of desolation (Matt. 24:15) to consolidate his control over a territory where the true Mass has been largely suppressed.
The Motto of the Antichurch: “In Illo uno unum” — Unity Without Truth
The article concludes with Sánchez stating that Peru wishes to present the antipope with “a united Church that knows how to walk together in fraternity,” citing the Petrine motto In Illo uno unum (“In the One, one”). This motto, stripped of its theological content, becomes a slogan for the conciliar sect’s false ecumenism. True unity is unitas fidei (unity of faith), unitas sacramenti (unity of sacraments), unitas regiminis (unity of government) under the true Roman Pontiff. The “fraternity” of the neo-church is the fraternitas diaboli — a unity of compromise with error, a “walking together” toward the abyss. Pius IX’s Syllabus of Errors (1864) condemns the proposition: “Protestantism is nothing more than another form of the same true Christian religion, in which form it is given to please God equally as in the Catholic Church” (Error 18). The antipope’s “fraternity” extends to all false religions. This is not the unity of Christ; it is the unity of Babel.
Symptomatic Analysis: The Cult of Personality Replaces the Cult of God
The article’s focus on the antipope’s “enthusiasm,” “joy,” “simple, humble, and reserved character,” and how “his heart grows larger” before crowds reveals the anthropocentric inversion at the heart of the conciliar religion. The “priest” Sánchez is a member of the organizing committee — a bureaucrat of the neo-church. The visit centers on the 300th anniversary of the canonization of St. Turibius of Mogrovejo, a true saint and archbishop who defended the Church’s rights against civil power. The irony is staggering: the antipope, who heads a sect that has surrendered the Church’s rights to the state (religious liberty, secularism), celebrates a saint who fought for libertas Ecclesiae. The “remote communities” the antipope wished to visit but could not due to “weather conditions” are denied the true Mass and true doctrine by the very structure he leads.
The EWTN Complicity: Gatekeepers of the Neo-Church
EWTN presents this as “news.” It is not. It is the maintenance of the status quo of the Great Apostasy. By publishing such drivel, EWTN confirms its role as the controlled opposition — offering a “traditional” veneer (Latin Mass broadcasts, orthodox-sounding talk shows) while rigorously enforcing recognition of the usurpers. The article’s final lines — newsletter signups, privacy policies, “Related Articles” linking to more antipope coverage — reveal the commercial-institutional nature of the enterprise. Quas Primas warned: “The laziness and timidity of the good… do not want to oppose or resist too gently, as a result of which the enemies of the Church act with greater audacity and hardness.” EWTN embodies this timidity. It refuses to apply Canon 188.4 (1917 Code) to the manifest heretics in the Vatican: “Every office becomes vacant by the mere fact and without any declaration… if the cleric publicly defects from the Catholic faith.”
Conclusion: No Legitimacy, No Obedience, No Salvation in the Neo-Church
The visit of Robert Prevost to Peru is not a pastoral event; it is a political tour by the head of a paramasonic structure to reinforce his claim to a throne he has forfeited by heresy. The priest Sánchez, EWTN, and the entire conciliar hierarchy in Peru are co-conspirators in the scelus (crime) of usurpation. The faithful in Peru — and everywhere — must recognize that no sacramental grace flows from the ministers of the neo-church, for they lack jurisdiction and intent. The true Church of Christ endures in the catacombs, in the hands of bishops and priests who keep the Faith entire, the Mass of Trent, and the rejection of the conciliar errors. Non praevalebunt (Matt. 16:18). The gates of hell shall not prevail — but they have seized the visible structures. Discern. Resist. Remain.
