Neo-Church Usurper Promotes Naturalist Pacifism Against Catholic Order
VaticanNews portal reports on December 18, 2025, that antipope Leo XIV issued a message for the 59th World Day of Peace titled “Peace Be with You All: Towards an Unarmed and Disarming Peace,” decrying military spending increases (9.4% in 2024) and autonomous weapons while promoting a “resurrection-based” peace divorced from Christ’s social kingship. This document continues the conciliar sect’s betrayal of Quas Primas (Pius XI, 1925), which declared that nations rejecting Christ’s reign “will have no peace” (n. 1).
The Naturalist Subversion of Christ’s Kingship
The antipope’s message reduces peace to a disembodied spiritual sentiment, stating: “Peace is a breath of the eternal: while to evil we cry out ‘Enough,’ to peace we whisper ‘Forever’”. This gnostic formulation deliberately ignores the Syllabus of Errors‘ condemnation of those who claim “the Church ought to be separated from the State, and the State from the Church” (Pius IX, Prop. 55). By framing peace as mere interpersonal harmony rather than the juridical submission of nations to the Social Reign of Christ the King, Leo XIV perpetuates the conciliar revolution’s core heresy – the denial of Christus Vincit, Christus Regnat, Christus Imperat.
Omission of Just War Doctrine and Legitimate Defense
“It is no coincidence that repeated calls to increase military spending, and the choices that follow, are presented by many government leaders as a justified response to external threats.”
This sneering dismissal of national defense constitutes blasphemy against St. Augustine’s just war principles (De Civitate Dei, XIX) and St. Thomas Aquinas’ teaching that rulers must “use the sword of war to protect the common weal from external foes” (Summa Theologica II-II Q40). The message condemns deterrent capability as “irrationality” while remaining silent on governments’ positive duty to protect citizens from aggression – a dereliction of the bonum commune demanded by Leo XIII’s Immortale Dei (1885).
False Equivalence Between Defense and Aggression
By framing military preparedness as part of a “destructive spiral” alongside actual warfare, the antipope advances the modernist heresy of “integral disarmament” condemned by Pius XII’s 1954 Christmas Message: “The Church does not unconditionally condemn war… A nation threatened by unjust attack has the right and duty to defend itself”. The document’s hysterical focus on “$2.718 trillion” in global military spending ignores Catholic teaching that defense budgets become immoral only when exceeding reasonable needs or diverting from higher goods (Pius XI, Ubi Arcano, 1922).
Sacrilegious Appropriation of Resurrection Theology
The message claims Christ’s resurrection mandates “unarmed and disarming peace,” twisting Scripture to support naturalist pacifism. This contradicts St. Luke’s record that the Apostles kept swords (22:38) and St. Paul’s teaching that rulers “bear not the sword in vain” (Romans 13:4). The Catechism of the Council of Trent (1566) explicitly states: “It is not contrary to the law of God to engage in war… when necessity requires it for the defense of the State.”
Neo-Pelagian Trust in Human Dialogue Over Grace
Leo XIV proposes “prayer, spirituality, and ecumenical and interreligious dialogue” as peace tools while omitting the sine qua non – the conversion of nations to the Catholic Faith. This echoes the modernist heresy condemned in Lamentabili Sane (1907) which held revelation as mere “man’s self-awareness” (Prop. 21). True peace requires submission to the Regnum Christi through sacramental life and the Church’s missionary mandate (Matthew 28:19), not the interfaith syncretism promoted since Vatican II.
Silence on the Real Source of Conflict: Apostasy
Nowhere does the message identify the root cause of war – humanity’s rebellion against God’s law. Pius XI’s Quas Primas diagnosed it perfectly: “The majority of men had thrust Jesus Christ and his holy law out of their lives… as long as individuals and states refused to submit to the rule of our Savior, there would be no really hopeful prospect of a lasting peace among nations” (n. 1). This neo-church document’s focus on weapons rather than spiritual causes proves its leaders are “blind guides” (Matthew 15:14) incapable of offering true solutions.
Conclusion: A Betrayal of Catholic Militancy
Antipope Leo XIV’s message completes the conciliar sect’s transformation into a NGO promoting globalist agendas. By rejecting the Church’s militant nature – symbolized in her Ecclesia Militans identity – this document aligns with Masonic calls for unilateral disarmament. True Catholics recognize with St. Joan of Arc that “Men will fight and God will give the victory”, knowing peace comes only through Christ’s universal kingship, not the UN’s empty protocols. As Pius XII warned: “Nothing is lost with peace. All may be lost with war” – but this applies only to just wars defending civilization against barbarism, not the neo-church’s suicidal pacifism.
