The National Catholic Register portal reports on oral arguments before the US Supreme Court in St. Mary School v. Roy, where the Archdiocese of Denver’s schools seek state preschool funding while resisting Colorado’s mandate to admit children of same-sex couples. The conciliar hierarchy, represented by the Becket Fund, frames this as a “religious liberty” clash, while “conservative” justices signal willingness to compel state subsidies for institutions that have long since surrendered the social kingship of Christ to secular power. This spectacle reveals not a defense of the Faith, but the terminal servility of the conciliar sect to the Masonic state.
The Conciliar Hierarchy Prostrates Before the Golden Calf of State Subsidy
The very premise of the case—the petition for public funds by putative “Catholic” schools—constitutes a practical denial of the Church’s divine right to perfect society status, entirely free from civil power, as defined by Pius IX in the Syllabus of Errors (Props. 19, 20, 55). The Syllabus condemns the error that “it appertains to the civil power to define what are the rights of the Church, and the limits within which she may exercise those rights” (Prop. 19) and that “the ecclesiastical power ought not to exercise its authority without the permission and assent of the civil government” (Prop. 20). By begging Colorado for $6,100 per pupil, the Denver “archdiocese” acknowledges the state as paymaster and therefore regulator—the very servitude Leo XIII and Pius XI warned would destroy the foundations of authority.
Pius XI in Quas Primas declares: “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 conciliar schools’ lawyers argue not for Christ’s rights, but for a carve-out within Caesar’s anti-Christian framework. They accept the state’s definition of “protected classes”—including the anti-natural categories of “sexual orientation” and “gender identity”—and merely seek exemption ad casum. This is not the libertas Ecclesiae; it is the whine of a vassal negotiating the terms of his vassalage.
“Religious Liberty”: The Masonic Trojan Horse Inside the Citadel
The Becket Fund’s rhetoric—“creating a Catholic community” via “case-by-case” admissions—exposes the heresy of religious liberty condemned by Pius IX (Syllabus, Prop. 15: “Every man is free to embrace and profess that religion which, guided by the light of reason, he shall consider true”) and Pius XI (Quas Primas: “the Church… demands for itself… full freedom and independence from secular authority”—freedom for the Truth, not license for error). The “conservative” justices (Kavanaugh, Barrett, Gorsuch) champion this false liberty, which reduces the Church to a private association competing for state largesse alongside 2,000 other providers. Kavanaugh’s question—“Why has this been provoked when there’s an ability for everyone to go to the school… that’s a fit for them?”—reveals the utilitarian, indifferentist calculus of the Masonic judiciary: religion as lifestyle accessory, not veritas obligans.
The Syllabus (Prop. 77) condemns: “In the present day it is no longer expedient that the Catholic religion should be held as the only religion of the State, to the exclusion of all other forms of worship”. The conciliar sect, by invoking the First Amendment instead of Christ’s Kingship, has internalized this condemned proposition. They do not demand that Colorado submit its laws to the Gospel; they beg permission to exist as a subcontractor of the anti-Christian state.
The “Case-by-Case” Capitulation: Judas Kiss for the Gender Ideology
Reaves’ admission that officials want “case-by-case” discretion aligned with “Catholic teachings” is a confession of doctrinal surrender. A school that might admit a child of a same-sex “couple” on a “case-by-case” basis has already conceded the legitimacy of the status. It treats the objective disorder (cf. Catechism of Trent, Roman Catechism on Sixth Commandment) as a variable circumstance rather than an impediment dirimens to participation in Catholic education. Pius XI in Quas Primas insists Christ’s reign “encompasses all men… not only Catholic nations… but His reign encompasses also all non-Christians” and that “rulers of states therefore not refuse public veneration and obedience to the reigning Christ”. The Denver “archdiocese” does the opposite: it asks the state to tolerate its partial non-compliance with anti-discrimination law, thereby recognizing the state’s right to impose that law.
This is the fruit of Dignitatis Humanae and the conciliar “dialogue” with the world—a dialogue that St. Pius X in Lamentabili Sane Exitu (Prop. 59) condemns as Modernist: “Christ did not proclaim any specific, all-encompassing doctrine suitable for all times and peoples, but rather initiated a certain religious movement, applied or applicable to different times and places”. The “case-by-case” approach is precisely this: doctrine liquefied into pastoral accommodation.
The Specter of Employment Division v. Smith: Scalia’s Poisoned Chalice
The article notes speculation that the Court may overturn Smith (1990), which held neutral laws of general applicability need not accommodate religious exercise. That Scalia—a “conservative” icon—authored Smith proves the bankruptcy of “originalist” jurisprudence untethered from lex aeterna. The conciliar sect’s hope rests on a wider “free exercise” right—i.e., a stronger claim to secular autonomy. But Quas Primas teaches: “There is no power in us that is exempt from this reign [of Christ]. It is therefore necessary that Christ reign in the mind of man… in the will… in the heart… in the body”. A “religious liberty” that does not demand the State’s submission to Christ is a liberty from Christ.
The Trump administration’s intervention (Sarah Harris arguing for the schools) confirms the paramasonic convergence: the “Right” wing of the Masonic duopoly tosses a bone to the conciliar “Church” to secure its complicity in the ordo saeculorum. The “Archdiocese of Denver” accepts the bone, wagging its tail for Caesar’s coin bearing the image of gender ideology.
Silence on the Supernatural: The Gravest Accusation
Nowhere in the article—nor in the arguments of the “Catholic” lawyers, nor the queries of the “Catholic” justices—is there mention of: the salus animarum; the Unbloody Sacrifice of Calvary as the center of Catholic education; the duty of parents to educate children in Domino (Eph 6:4); the Social Kingship of Christ as the only foundation of just law; the anathemas of Trent and Vatican I against those who deny the Church’s potestas indirecta in temporalibus. This silentium de divinis is the signature of the abomination of desolation occupying the Vatican structures. As Pius XI warned in Quas Primas: “the plague that poisons human society… is the secularism of our times, so-called laicism”. The conciliar schools are not its antidote; they are its chaplains.
The Invalid Hierarchy Cannot Bind the Faithful
The “Archdiocese of Denver” operates under the “pope” Leo XIV (Robert Prevost), a manifest heretic who, by the teaching of St. Robert Bellarmine (De Romano Pontifice), “ceases to be Pope and head… by that very fact” (ipso facto). Wernz and Vidal confirm: “By notorious and publicly manifested heresy, the Roman Pontiff… is deprived ipso facto of his personal jurisdiction even before any declaratory sentence”. The “bishops” of the conciliar sect, ordained in the novus ordo rite (invalid per Sacramentum Ordinis defect of form and intention) and appointed by antipopes, possess no jurisdiction. Their schools are private associations with no canonical standing. The faithful are bound by Canon 188.4 (1917 Code): “Every office becomes vacant by the mere fact… if the cleric: 4. Publicly defects from the Catholic faith”. The conciliar hierarchy has defected en bloc; its “schools” are not Catholic.
Conclusion: Return to the Catacombs, Not the Courtroom
The St. Mary School v. Roy spectacle is a theatrum mundi where the conciliar sect performs its assigned role: legitimizing the anti-Christian state by pretending to resist it, while begging for its money. True Catholic education—integral, sacerdotal, royal—cannot coexist with state funding tied to gender ideology. It must be gratis, sustained by the sacrifices of the faithful, taught by valid priests in chapels where the Most Holy Sacrifice is offered, under bishops with true apostolic succession and true jurisdiction (supplied by epikeia in this time of universal apostasy). Non possumus serve two masters. “Render therefore to Caesar the things that are Caesar’s, and to God the things that are God’s” (Mt 22:21). The conciliar sect has rendered to Caesar the things that are God’s. The remnant must render to God everything.
