Leo XIV Invokes Laudato Si’ to Sanctify a Brewery Pilgrimage

Vatican News portal reports that on May 9, 2026, the usurper antipope Leo XIV (Robert Prevost) received members of the Edith Haberland-Wagner Foundation and the Augustiner-Bräu brewery, using the occasion to reflect on the Augustinian tradition of service and to recall the teachings of his predecessor, the apostate Jorge Mario Bergoglio (Francis), from the encyclical *Laudato si’*. The article describes how Leo XIV encouraged the pilgrims to use the gifts of creation wisely and justly, for the sake of peace and the common good, while expressing gratitude for their “prayerful support” of his ministry. This event is a textbook example of the conciliar sect’s reduction of the Faith to naturalistic humanitarianism, where the Most Holy Sacrifice of the Mass and the salvation of souls are seamlessly replaced by beer, “creation care,” and the social doctrine of Modernism.

Mary Cassatt’s “Domestic Feminism”: A Mirror of Modernist Rebellion Against God’s Order

Leave a Comment / Antichurch / amdg

The National Catholic Reporter portal, in an article by Jean P. Kelly (May 9, 2026), presents American Impressionist Mary Cassatt as a progressive feminist icon whose art championed “the dignity of work” and “justice through community.” The article celebrates her rejection of marriage and motherhood, her defiance of “institutions that circumscribed women’s roles,” and her active participation in the women’s suffrage movement. It frames her paintings of women and children as subversive statements of female autonomy, highlighting her “radical reinterpretation of Eve’s story” and her opposition to the commercialization of Mother’s Day. The article concludes by noting upcoming major retrospectives of her work in Chicago and Paris. This article, published in a prominent “Catholic” magazine, is a stark illustration of how the conciliar sect co-opts and celebrates figures whose lives and philosophies are fundamentally at odds with immutable Catholic doctrine on the family, the role of women, and the divine order.

Love as Commandment or Love as Sentiment? The Neo-Church’s Gospel Without the Cross

Leave a Comment / Antichurch / amdg

VaticanNews portal (May 9, 2026) offers a Gospel commentary for the Sixth Sunday of Easter by Fr. Edmund Power, OSB, reflecting on the theme “If you love me…” from the Last Supper discourse in John’s Gospel. The article presents love as primarily an interior disposition of truth and integrity, weaving Trinitarian relationships into a “wondrous tapestry” that invites the faithful to be “men and women of truth and integrity, a spiritual and moral backbone to a stumbling world.” What is conspicuously absent from this entire reflection — and what reveals its true spiritual barrenness — is any mention of the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, the sacraments as the necessary means of grace, the reality of sin, the necessity of confession, the propitiatory nature of Christ’s sacrifice, or the absolute obligation of submitting to the fullness of Catholic doctrine as the precondition for possessing the Holy Spirit at all. This is not a Gospel commentary; it is a naturalistic homily dressed in Johannine vocabulary, perfectly calibrated for the conciliar sect’s religion of man.

Just War Theory Reduced to Bureaucratic Calculus: Bishop Conley’s Moral Abdication

Leave a Comment / Antichurch / amdg

EWTN News portal reports that Bishop James D. Conley of Lincoln, Nebraska, published an op-ed titled “Just War 101: Catholic teaching for a dangerous moment,” offering what he calls a primer on just war theory amid the U.S.-Iran conflict. The bishop, son of a WWII veteran, presents the standard four conditions for *jus ad bellum* (last resort, proper authority, just cause, proportionality) and two for *jus in bello* (noncombatant immunity, proportionality of means). He references Pope Leo XIV’s calls for peace, acknowledges the Iranian regime’s evils, and even permits preemptive action against an enemy “on the brink of attacking.” Yet his treatment is sandwiched between the haunting story of Father George Zabelka, chaplain to the Enola Gay crew, who later repented of blessing the atomic bombings, and concludes with a plea for prayer and peace. The entire exercise is a masterclass in bureaucratic moralism—reducing the Church’s solemn teaching on war to a sterile checklist while remaining silent on the supernatural order, the reign of Christ the King, and the very possibility that modern warfare, waged by secular states devoid of Catholic principle, is intrinsically incapable of meeting the Church’s conditions. This is not Catholic doctrine administered; it is naturalistic ethics dressed in ecclesiastical vestments, a symptom of the conciliar Church’s capitulation to the world.

The Usurper’s Pilgrimage: Leo XIV’s Pompei-Naples Spectacle Exposes the Neo-Church’s Substitution of Piety for Propaganda

Leave a Comment / Antichurch / amdg

EWTN News Staff reports that on May 8, 2026, the first anniversary of his election to the usurped papal throne, Robert Prevost — styling himself “Pope Leo XIV” — visited the Italian cities of Pompei and Naples, meeting with local citizens and clergy and concelebrating what the conciliar sect calls “the Eucharist” in Piazza Bartolo Longo before proceeding to the Cathedral of the Assumption of Mary in Naples. The event was accompanied by the usual choreographed spectacle: crowds waving, a personalized pizza presented by celebrity pizzaiolo Gino Sorbillo, and the omnipresent Vatican Media apparatus ensuring that every smile and wave was captured and broadcast. What the article presents as a pastoral visit is, upon even cursory examination from the standpoint of integral Catholic faith, a carefully orchestrated act of legitimation for an occupant of the Apostolic See who lacks any canonical authority, performed at a Marian shrine whose message has been systematically falsified by the very structures now controlling it.

Synod Study Group’s Final Report: A Calculated Assault on Catholic Moral Doctrine

Leave a Comment / Antichurch / amdg

The National Catholic Register reports on the final report of Study Group 9 from the 2024 Synod on Synodality, released in early May 2026. The document, which includes testimonies from two men in same-sex “marriages,” questions whether homosexual relations are sinful, and misrepresents the mission of Courage International, has drawn sharp criticism from faithful Catholics. Cardinal Gerhard Müller condemned the report for setting aside revealed truths, while Father Gerald Murray called it a “subversive attempt to overthrow Catholic morality.” Courage International denounced the report for calumny and detraction, noting it was never contacted for accurate information. The report’s embrace of “LGBT ideology” and its call for a “paradigm shift” away from centuries of Catholic moral teaching represents not merely a pastoral failure, but a systematic attempt to dismantle the Church’s immutable doctrine on the nature of sin, marriage, and the moral life — an act of apostasy that no synodal process can legitimize.

Synod Study Group’s Report Subverts Doctrine on Homosexuality and Slanders Chastity Apostolate

Leave a Comment / Antichurch / amdg

The National Catholic Register portal reports on May 8, 2026, that the final report of Study Group 9 from the 2024 Synod on Synodality has been released, drawing sharp criticism for its attempt to alter the Church’s immutable teaching on homosexuality and for its gross misrepresentation of Courage International, a canonically approved apostolate. The report, which includes testimonies from “married” gay men, questions the sinful nature of same-sex relations, and promotes a “paradigm shift” away from established Catholic doctrine, is a brazen manifestation of the conciliar sect’s ongoing apostasy, seeking to replace divine law with the shifting sands of human experience and secular ideology.

Catholic Bureaucrats Lobby for Worldly Solutions While the Soul Starves

EWTN News portal reports that a coalition of Catholic organizations, including the USCCB, Catholic Charities USA, and Catholic Relief Services, is urging Congress to bolster federal nutrition programs. This appeal aligns with “Pope” Leo XIV’s May prayer intention for global food security. While addressing material needs is a corporal work of mercy, the article and the actions it describes exemplify the post-conciliar Church’s descent into naturalistic humanitarianism, prioritizing temporal welfare over the eternal salvation of souls, and effectively reducing the Church’s mission to that of a secular NGO lobbying for state-funded welfare.

One Year of the Usurper: The New Sheriff in the Occupied Vatican

Leave a Comment / Antichurch / amdg

The Pillar portal reports on a podcast episode in which JD Flynn and Ed. Condon reflect on the one-year anniversary of the election of the antipope Leo XIV (Robert Prevost) to the usurped papal throne, followed by discussion of a Vatican-ordered “Vos estis” investigation in the Diocese of Baton Rouge. What is presented as a routine ecclesiastical matter is, in reality, yet another episode in the ongoing consolidation of power by the conciliar sect — a paramasonic structure that has occupied the Vatican since the death of Pius XII and which continues to simulate the governance of the true Church of Christ while systematically dismantling every remnant of Catholic doctrine and discipline.
