Colombia’s Surrogacy Ban: Secular Legislation Usurps Christ’s Royal Rights
The EWTN News portal — a flagship propaganda organ of the conciliar sect — reports that Colombia’s congress will soon debate a bill prohibiting surrogacy, introduced by Conservative Party Representative Luis Miguel López Aristizábal. The legislation, framed as a response to four rulings of the Constitutional Court, establishes the crime of “reproductive exploitation through surrogacy” with penalties of 10 to 16 years’ imprisonment and heavy fines, while explicitly declining to criminalize the surrogate mother and declaring her the legal mother of the child. The legislator boasts of majority public support and hopes for unanimous passage, presenting the measure as a defense of the priceless value of children and the dignity of women. This secular legislative maneuver, celebrated by the conciliar media, epitomizes the naturalistic usurpation of Christ’s Social Kingship, reducing the grave sin of surrogacy to a mere administrative crime while ignoring the divine law that alone can remedy the cultural collapse.
The Conciliar Media’s Celebration of Naturalistic Legislation
The source of this report, EWTN News Español (translated by EWTN News English), is a creature of the post-conciliar establishment, founded by the Franciscan Mother Angelica under the patronage of the usurping hierarchy. Its journalist, Eduardo Berdejo, proudly notes in his biography that he has covered the visits of antipope Francis to Cuba, Mexico, Colombia, and Peru. This single fact disqualifies the outlet as a voice of Catholic truth: it serves the paramasonic structure occupying the Vatican, the Church of the New Advent that has substituted the reign of Christ for the cult of man. The article’s tone is purely bureaucratic, journalistic, and devoid of any supernatural reference. It treats the prohibition of surrogacy as a policy success of a “Conservative Party” legislator responding to a “Constitutional Court” — the very tribunals that, in the words of the Syllabus of Errors, claim that “the civil law prevails” over divine law (Error 42) and that “the State, as being the origin and source of all rights, is endowed with a certain right not circumscribed by any limits” (Error 39). The conciliar media’s applause for this bill is not a defense of the faith but a celebration of the secular city managing its own decay.
Usurpation of the Social Kingship of Christ
Pope Pius XI, in his encyclical Quas Primas (1925), teaches with unshakeable authority that “the reign of Christ encompasses not only Catholic nations… but also all non-Christians, so that most truly the entire human race is subject to the authority of Jesus Christ” and that “rulers of states… have the duty to publicly honor Christ and obey Him… because His royal dignity demands that all relations in the state be ordered on the basis of God’s commandments and Christian principles, both in the issuing of laws and in the administration of justice”. The Colombian bill does nothing of the sort. It derives its authority from the Constitutional Court — a Masonic-inspired body that usurps the potestas sacra — and from the “majority of Colombians,” i.e., the vox populi elevated to the status of vox Dei. The legislator López Aristizábal says: “I hope it will be passed unanimously in the Congress of the Republic, as it has the backing of various voting blocs.” This is the language of democratic idolatry, condemned by Pope St. Pius X in Lamentabili sane exitu (Prop. 58: “Truth changes with man, because it develops with him, in him, and through him”) and by the Syllabus (Error 77: “In the present day it is no longer expedient that the Catholic religion should be held as the only religion of the State”). A law that does not explicitly acknowledge Christ the King as its source and end is lex injusta non est lex — a law in appearance only, a legislative fiction that binds no conscience before God.
Reduction of Mortal Sin to Administrative Crime
The article frames surrogacy as “reproductive exploitation” and a violation of “fundamental rights” — the jargon of Masonic humanitarianism and naturalistic personalism. The bill penalizes “those who promote, facilitate, finance, or organize this practice” with prison and fines, but does not criminalize the surrogate mother, instead making her “for all legal purposes, the mother of the children conceived or born in Colombia”. While the principle mater semper certa est (the mother is always certain) is a dictate of natural law, its enactment by a secular legislature divorced from the supernatural order is a travesty. Surrogacy is not merely “exploitation”; it is a heinous sin against the Sixth Commandment, a violation of the natural law inscribed by God in creation, an affront to the unitive and procreative meanings of the conjugal act taught infallibly by Pius XI in Casti Connubii (1930): “Any use whatsoever of matrimony exercised in such a way that the act is deliberately frustrated in its natural power to generate life is an offense against the law of God and of nature, and those who indulge in such are branded with the guilt of a grave sin.” The bill treats the symptom (commercial surrogacy) while ignoring the root: the contraceptive mentality, the IVF industry, the divorce culture, and the apostasy of the Colombian hierarchy which has failed to excommunicate the promoters of these evils. By reducing a sin crying to heaven for vengeance to a regulatory offense, the state assumes the role of moral therapist rather than minister of God’s justice (Rom 13:4).
The Myth of the “Conservative” Party in a Masonic Republic
The bill’s author belongs to the Conservative Party — a political label that, in the context of Latin American Masonic republics founded on liberal constitutions condemned by the Syllabus (Errors 55, 77, 80), is a contradiction in terms. The Syllabus condemns the proposition that “the Roman Pontiff can, and ought to, reconcile himself, and come to terms with progress, liberalism and modern civilization” (Error 80). A “Conservative” party operating within a constitutional order that enshrines religious liberty, separation of Church and State, and popular sovereignty is not a defender of the Social Kingship of Christ but a managed opposition that legitimizes the Masonic framework. The article notes that “the lobbying by clinics has been truly incredible” — revealing that the real power in Colombia is the technocratic-biomedical complex serving the culture of death. The legislator’s hope for “unanimous” passage only proves that the neo-church hierarchy (the Colombian “bishops'” conference) has long since surrendered to the spirit of the world, preferring dialogue and accompaniment to the anathema sit of Trent.
Silence on the Sacramental Order and the Necessity of Grace
The most damning feature of the article — and the bill it praises — is its total silence on the supernatural order. There is no mention of baptism, the Most Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, the Sacrament of Penance, the state of grace, or the final judgment. The child is spoken of as a “baby” with “priceless” value, but not as a soul created for heaven who must be regenerated in the waters of baptism to enter the Kingdom of Christ. The woman is a “pregnant woman” with “vulnerability”, not a daughter of God called to heroic purity or holy motherhood within the sacrament of matrimony. This anthropological reductionism is the hallmark of Modernism, condemned by St. Pius X in Lamentabili (Prop. 26: “The dogmas of faith should be understood according to their practical function, i.e., as binding in action, rather than as principles of belief”) and Prop. 65: “Contemporary Catholicism cannot be reconciled with true knowledge without transforming it into a certain dogmaless Christianity, that is, into a broad and liberal Protestantism.” The conciliar sect’s media outlet, EWTN, perfectly embodies this dogmaless Christianity: it cheers a secular law that manages sin while ignoring the only remedy — the restoration of all things in Christ (Eph 1:10) through the integral Catholic faith and the valid sacraments of the true Church.
Symptomatic of the Conciliar Revolution’s Surrender to the World
This episode is a microcosm of the conciliar revolution’s capitulation to the spirit of the age. The neo-church hierarchy in Colombia, like its counterparts worldwide, has abandoned the public reign of Christ the King for a seat at the table of the Masonic state. It celebrates legislative crumbs — a ban on surrogacy that leaves the contraceptive mentality, IVF, divorce, gender ideology, and abortion (legal in Colombia since 2006) untouched — as “victories.” The Syllabus warned that “the Church ought to be separated from the State, and the State from the Church” (Error 55) is the Masonic ideal; the Colombian bill, enacted by a “Catholic” nation’s congress without reference to Christ, realizes that ideal. The true Church — the persecuted remnant adhering to the immutable Tradition and the valid sacraments — knows that no civil law can save a nation that has apostatized from the Kingship of Christ. As Pius XI thundered in Quas Primas: “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.” Colombia’s surrogacy ban is a band-aid on a corpse. The only true prohibition of surrogacy is the Canon 1013 of the 1917 Code (condemning artificial generation), the teaching of Casti Connubii, and the living witness of Catholic families who, sine qua non, submit to the Sweet Yoke of Christ the King. Viva Cristo Rey!
