Bergoglian ‘Logic of Littleness’ Undermines Catholic Mission in Turkey
Catholic News Agency portal reports (November 28, 2025) that antipope Leo XIV (Robert Prevost), during his visit to Istanbul, urged Turkey’s minuscule Catholic community to embrace a “logic of littleness”. The address at the Cathedral of the Holy Spirit promoted ecumenism with the Orthodox Patriarchate of Constantinople, interreligious dialogue with Muslims, and inculturation efforts. The antipope framed the Church’s absence of influence as a virtue, citing Christ’s “little flock” (Luke 12:32) while omitting the duty to proclaim the Social Kingship of Christ (Regnum Christi) over all nations. He further invoked the heresiarch Angelo Roncalli (“John XXIII”), praised as a model for “laboring joyfully” amid interfaith coexistence.
Naturalistic Reduction of the Church’s Divine Mission
The antipope’s rhetoric reduces the Church’s purpose to a humanistic NGO, stating:
“The Church’s true strength […] does not lie in her resources or structures, nor in numbers or influence, but in remaining gathered around Christ and sent by the Holy Spirit.”
This sophistry ignores the de fide truth that the Catholic Church is the sole Ark of Salvation (extra Ecclesiam nulla salus), endowed by Christ with visible structures, infallible doctrine, and the mandate to “make disciples of all nations” (Matthew 28:19). Pius XI’s encyclical Quas Primas (1925) explicitly condemns such quietism:
“When once men recognize, both in private and in public life, that Christ is King, society will at last receive the great blessings of real liberty, well-ordered discipline, peace and harmony.”
By celebrating “littleness” as a strategy, the conciliar sect perpetuates the Vatican II heresy of subsistit in (Lumen Gentium 8), which denies the Catholic Church’s unique identification as Christ’s Kingdom on earth. The Syllabus of Errors (1864) condemns this betrayal: “The Church is not a true and perfect society, entirely free” (Proposition 19).
Ecumenism and Interreligious Dialogue: Apostasy Disguised as Virtue
Antipope Leo XIV’s call for “dedication to ecumenical and interreligious dialogue” directly violates the oath against Modernism prescribed by St. Pius X:
“I entirely reject the heretical misrepresentation that dogmas evolve and change from one meaning to another different from the one which the Church held previously.”
The article’s praise for Patriarch Bartholomew I as “a point of reference” exposes the conciliar sect’s apostasy. Mortalium Animos (1928) of Pius XI anathematizes such syncretism:
“The unity of Christians cannot be fostered otherwise than by promoting the return to the one true Church of Christ of those who are separated from it.”
Worse still, Turkey—a nation where Islam suppresses Christian witness—is deceitfully labeled a “holy land.” This blasphemy equates pagan sites with those sanctified by Christ’s Apostles, ignoring the Decree for the Jacobites (1442) from the Council of Florence:
“The Holy Roman Church […] firmly believes, professes, and preaches that all those outside the Catholic Church […] cannot share in eternal life.”
‘New Arianism’ Accusation: Projection of Conciliar Heresies
The antipope’s warning against a “new Arianism” denying Christ’s divinity reeks of hypocrisy. The conciliar sect itself propagates this heresy by:
1. Promoting false religions (Assisi gatherings)
2. Endorsing Protestant “churches” as means of salvation (Joint Declaration on Justification)
3. Erasing the necessity of Baptism (Dominus Iesus ambiguity)
St. Pius X’s Lamentabili Sane (1907) condemns precisely this Modernist corruption:
“The faith of the Church is contrary to history, and Catholic dogmas in no way agree with the real beginnings of the Christian religion” (Proposition 3).
The article’s reference to the Council of Nicaea’s 1,700th anniversary is particularly galling. Nicaea defined Christ as consubstantial with the Father—a dogma the conciliar sect undermines by granting legitimacy to Orthodox schismatics who reject papal supremacy.
Inculturation and Roncalli’s Poisonous Legacy
The demand for Catholics to adopt Turkish language and culture as “more and more your own” exemplifies the heresy of inculturation, condemned by Pius XII’s Mediator Dei:
“The worship rendered to God by the Church […] must be […] governed exclusively by the Church’s authority.”
Glorifying Roncalli (“John XXIII”)—the architect of Vatican II—as a model confirms the sect’s revolutionary agenda. Roncalli’s journalistic stint in Turkey laid groundwork for the Ostpolitik that betrayed Eastern European Catholics to communist persecutors. His disdain for Tradition is well-documented:
“We are not here to guard a museum, but to cultivate a flourishing garden of life.”
Conclusion: The ‘Little Flock’ Versus the Robber Church
True Catholics recognize this Istanbul speech as Bergoglian poison. The “logic of littleness” is a Satanic inversion of Christ’s promise: “Fear not, little flock; for it is your Father’s good pleasure to give you the kingdom” (Luke 12:32). The kingdom is not psychological comfort in obscurity—but the conquest of all nations for Christ the King.
As the usurper departs Turkey, we recall Pius IX’s condemnation: “The Roman Pontiff can, and ought to, reconcile himself, and come to terms with progress, liberalism and modern civilization” (Syllabus of Errors, Proposition 80). Those who obey this false “pope” align with Antichrist’s robber church. Only uncompromising fidelity to the extraordinary Magisterium preserves the Faith amid the Great Apostasy.
