The EWTN News portal reports that the usurper Leo XIV (Robert Prevost), addressing pilgrims in St. Peter’s Square on October 5, 2026, invoked the 800th anniversary of St. Francis of Assisi’s death to proclaim that “the charism of Saint Francis continues to bear fruit even today,” while simultaneously promoting the “A Million Children Praying the Rosary” initiative and announcing a “synodal discernment” gathering for the 10th anniversary of the heretical exhortation Amoris Laetitia. This performance confirms the neo-church’s strategy: cloaking the abomination of desolation in the vestments of authentic sanctity to advance the Masonic program of religious indifferentism and the demolition of the Social Kingship of Christ.
The Usurper’s Voice: A Diabolical Parody of the Petrine Ministry
The article presents the antipope Leo XIV commenting on the Gospel parable of the wicked tenants (Matthew 21:33-43). He states: “The Son of God sent into the world is rejected by the very people who should have welcomed him with open arms. The One who came to bring salvation is condemned; the One who wishes to give life is put to death.” This rhetoric, superficially orthodox, serves a satanic inversion: the true “wicked tenants” today are the conciliar hierarchs who have seized the vineyard of the Lord, expelled the true husbandmen (the faithful bishops and priests of Tradition), and murdered the heir by crucifying the immutable Faith. As St. Robert Bellarmine teaches, “A manifest heretic cannot be Pope… he cannot be the head of something of which he is not a member” (Defense of Sedevacantism, citing Bellarmine, De Romano Pontifice). Robert Prevost, by his public adhesion to the heresies of Vatican II (religious liberty, false ecumenism, collegiality), has ipso facto severed himself from the Mystical Body; his “Angelus” is not the prayer of the Vicar of Christ but the blasphemy of an intruder in the See of Peter.
St. Francis Weaponized for the “Church of the New Advent”
The claim that “the charism of Saint Francis continues to bear fruit even today” within the conciliar sect is a theological fraud. The true charism of the Seraphic Father is militant poverty, absolute obedience to the Roman Pontiff, and the crusading zeal for the conversion of infidels — not the pantheistic fraternity and dialogue with the world celebrated by the neo-church. St. Francis kissed the feet of the true Pope; his modern namesakes kiss the hands of heretics and imams. The article notes the presence of “Italy’s highest civil authorities” at the Assisi commemorations. This is the direct fulfillment of the condemned proposition: “The Church ought to be separated from the State, and the State from the Church” (Syllabus of Errors, Error 55). The subjection of the Church’s solemnities to the patronage of the Masonic Italian Republic proves the laicism Pius XI denounced in Quas Primas: “When God and Jesus Christ… were removed from laws and states… the foundations of that authority were destroyed”.
Amoris Laetitia: The Codification of Adultery as “Synodal Discernment”
The announcement of a Vatican gathering for the 10th anniversary of Amoris Laetitia — the document that legitimized sacrilegious Communion for public adulterers — exposes the antinomian core of the Bergoglian/Prevostian revolution. The phrase “synodal discernment for identifying the steps to be taken in order to proclaim the Gospel today among families” translates to: further accommodation to the spirit of the world, further dissolution of the indissolubility of marriage, further betrayal of the Sixth and Ninth Commandments. Pius XI in Quas Primas declared: “Christ received from the Father unlimited right over all that is created… His kingdom encompasses all men… individuals, families, or states”. The neo-church’s “synodal” surrender to the sexual revolution is a formal rebellion against the Kingship of Christ over the family. The Syllabus condemns: “By the law of nature, the marriage tie is not indissoluble, and in many cases divorce properly so called may be decreed by the civil authority” (Error 67). Amoris Laetitia makes this error pastoral policy.
The “Million Children Rosary”: Fatima’s Masonic Spectacle Recycled
The promotion of “A Million Children Praying the Rosary” (October 1-7) orchestrated by Aid to the Church in Need is not a call to authentic penance but a staged Masonic psychodrama. The False Fatima Apparitions dossier demonstrates the “ritualistic 200-year cycles” (1717, 1917, 2017) and the “mass optical manipulation” of the “Miracle of the Sun.” This initiative exploits the innocence of children to validate the Fatima myth — a narrative “theologically contradictory to Catholic doctrine” that “diverts attention from modernist apostasy within the Church” and serves “ecumenical reinterpretation” with schismatic Orthodoxy. True peace comes not from “invoking the intercession of the Virgin Mary so that peoples may be freed from the scourge of war” while denying Her Son’s Social Kingship, but from the public consecration of nations to the Sacred Heart as Pius XI commanded in Quas Primas: “The annual celebration of this solemnity will also remind states that not only private individuals, but also rulers and governments have the duty to publicly honor Christ and obey Him.”
Linguistic Deception: “People of God” vs. The Church Militant
The article’s language reveals the ecclesiological heresy of the conciliar sect. The phrase “People of God” (used twice) replaces Ecclesia Catholica — the una, sancta, catholica, apostolica Society perfect in her constitution. This terminology, imported from Lumen Gentium, reduces the Church to a horizontal, sociological collective, erasing the hierarchical distinction between the teaching Church (Ecclesia docens) and the learning Church (Ecclesia discens). Pius XII in Mystici Corporis (1943) condemned this equivocation. The “Franciscan family” mentioned is not the Order of Friars Minor canonically erected, but a fragmented constellation of modernist congregations — Capuchins, Conventuals, OFM, and myriad “Franciscan” NGOs — united only in their betrayal of the Rule.
The Symptomatic Level: The “Abomination of Desolation” in Action
Every element of this report manifests the systemic apostasy diagnosed by St. Pius X in Pascendi Dominici Gregis and Lamentabili Sane Exitu:
- Evolution of Dogma: “Synodal discernment” implies truth is discovered by process, not received from the Deposit of Faith. Lamentabili condemns: “Christ did not proclaim any specific, all-encompassing doctrine suitable for all times and peoples, but rather initiated a certain religious movement” (Prop. 59).
- False Ecumenism/Interreligious Dialogue: The Assisi gatherings (initiated by Wojtyla, continued by Bergoglio, now Prevost) realize the Syllabus error: “Protestantism is nothing more than another form of the same true Christian religion” (Error 18) and “Man may, in the observance of any religion whatever, find the way of eternal salvation” (Error 16).
- Religious Liberty: The presence of civil authorities at a religious jubilee celebrates the “civil liberty of every form of worship” condemned by Pius IX (Syllabus, Error 79).
- Naturalistic Peace: Prayer for “freedom from war” without the social reign of Christ the King is Pelagian humanitarianism. Pius XI: “Peace is only possible in the kingdom of Christ” (Quas Primas).
Canonical Nullity of the Conciliar “Hierarchy”
The article treats the “heads of the Eastern Catholic Churches” and “presidents of bishops’ conferences” as legitimate authorities. They are not. Canon 188.4 of the 1917 Code (Defense of Sedevacantism) declares: “Every office becomes vacant by the mere fact and without any declaration… if the cleric publicly defects from the Catholic faith.” Every “bishop” and “cardinal” participating in the Vatican II sect has publicly defected by professing its heresies. Their “synodal gathering” is a conspiracy of the wicked tenants, not a synod of the Church. Pope Paul IV’s Bull Cum ex Apostolatus Officio confirms: “If any… Cardinal… or even the Roman Pontiff… has defected from the Catholic Faith or fallen into some heresy: his promotion or elevation… shall be null, void, and of no effect.”
Conclusion: The Only Remedy is the Restoration of All Things in Christ
This EWTN report is not news; it is propaganda for the Antichurch. It parades St. Francis as a mascot for Amoris Laetitia, Fatima as a tool for Masonic “peace,” and the usurper Leo XIV as a “pope.” The integral Catholic response is Non possumus. We adhere to the Sede Vacante reality: the See of Peter has been vacant since the death of Pius XII (1958), occupied by a line of manifest heretics who ipso facto lost all jurisdiction. The true Church subsists in the remnant of bishops and priests preserving the Traditional Latin Mass, the unaltered Catechism, and the doctrine of the Social Kingship of Christ. “You are Christ the King of glory!” — this acclamation from Quas Primas belongs to the true Church alone. The neo-church’s “Franciscan Jubilee” is a Jubilee of Judas: thirty pieces of silver for the betrayal of the King.
