Pakistani “Christians” Betray the Faith Through Secular Alliances and False Ecumenism
The Vatican News portal (December 19, 2025) reports on Pakistani “Christians” collaborating with civil authorities to implement security measures around churches during Christmas, with “Fr.” Qaisar Feroz praising government-backed interfaith events that promote a vague “message of peace.” This syncretistic spectacle exposes the conciliar sect’s wholesale surrender to secularism and religious indifferentism.
Naturalistic Security Measures Replace Divine Providence
The article emphasizes state-enforced security protocols—police checks, traffic control, and “lighting”—as the primary means of protection for “Christian” gatherings. Such measures reflect the neo-church’s practical atheism, abandoning the Church’s perennial teaching that “unless the Lord guards the city, the watchman stays awake in vain” (Psalm 127:1).
The true Catholic response to persecution has always been fortitude in martyrdom, not outsourcing protection to regimes hostile to Christ the King. Pope Leo XIII condemned this very mindset: “States must be governed by the law of Christ… or they will inevitably sink into degradation” (Immortale Dei, 1885). Pakistan’s Islamic government, which enforces blasphemy laws targeting Catholics, now positions itself as the guardian of “minorities”—a cynical ploy to legitimize its tyranny.
Interfaith Apostasy Masquerading as “Fraternity”
The “interreligious unity” events described—such as the Karachi “public demonstration for peace”—constitute blatant violations of Catholic dogma. Pius XI unequivocally forbade participation in such syncretism: “The Apostolic See has never allowed Catholics to join in assemblies of non-Catholics… Truth cannot be reconciled with error” (Mortalium Animos, 1928).
Yet “Fr.” Feroz claims these gatherings “present the true spirit of Christmas: love, hope, and unity.” This saccharine reduction discards the Incarnation’s salvific purpose—the defeat of Satan and the establishment of Christ’s Social Reign—replacing it with a humanitarian fable. As the Syllabus of Errors condemns: “Men may find the way of salvation in any religion” (Proposition 16)—a heresy now parroted by the conciliar sect.
Sacrilegious Omission of the Holy Sacrifice
Nowhere does the article mention the Holy Mass, the center of authentic Catholic worship. Instead, it reduces Christmas to “dinners,” “presents,” and candle-lit spectacles. This mirrors Paul VI’s revolution, which demoted the Mass to a “banquet” (cf. Missale Romanum, 1969). Pius XII warned that such secularization “diverts the faithful from the true spirit of the liturgy” (Mediator Dei, 1947).
The “Christmas celebrations” described—devoid of Eucharistic adoration or doctrinal clarity—are indistinguishable from Protestant or pagan rituals. True Catholics would rather face martyrdom than profane the Nativity with such sacrilege.
The Silence on Christ’s Social Kingship
Most damning is the article’s total omission of Quas Primas (1925), where Pius XI instituted Christ the King’s feast to combat secularism. Pakistan’s regime—which denies Christ’s authority—is treated as an equal partner, not a power obliged to “serve the Lord with fear” (Psalm 2:11). The conciliar sect’s “dialogue” with Islam is nothing but apostasy, condemned by St. Pius X: “Modernists place all religions on the same level… This is contrary to Catholic doctrine” (Lamentabili, Proposition 21).
A Church in Chains
The Pakistani “bishops” collaboration with secular authorities mirrors the Vatican II sect’s broader betrayal. As Archbishop Lefebvre warned: “They seek to adapt the Church to the modern world, but in reality, they enslave her to it.” True Catholics recognize no “pope” after Pius XII and reject all post-1958 innovations as diabolical disorientation.
In Pakistan and worldwide, the remnant Church continues the unbloody Sacrifice of the Mass, refusing to barter doctrine for false peace. As St. Augustine teaches: “What does love desire? To exist. What does fear desire? Not to exist” (In Epistulam Ioannis ad Parthos). The conciliar sect’s fear-driven compromises only hasten its extinction.
