Empty Spectacle: Neo-Church’s Jubilee Masquerades as Catholic Piety
The Catholic News Agency portal (January 5, 2026) reports that 33.4 million pilgrims attended the “Jubilee of Hope” organized by the conciliar sect, celebrating this naturalistic spectacle while omitting all supernatural dimensions of true Catholic jubilees. Archbishop Rino Fisichella boasted of surpassing attendance projections, with the “Holy Door” closing ceremony to be presided over by antipope Leo XIV alongside Italian President Sergio Mattarella – a sacrilegious juxtaposition of ecclesiastical and civil authority condemned by Pope Pius XI in Quas Primas (1925). This modernist carnival exemplifies the complete inversion of the Church’s eschatological mission into a worldly NGO focused on statistics and political collaboration.
The Illegitimacy of Conciliar “Jubilees”
The article admits this pseudo-jubilee began under Francis and concludes under Leo XIV – two usurpers of the Apostolic See. True jubilees require:
“the authority of the Roman Pontiff, who alone has the right to convoke [them]” (Pope Clement VI, Unigenitus Dei Filius, 1343).
Pope Boniface VIII established in Antiquorum fida relatio (1300) that authentic jubilees grant plenary indulgences only through the merits of Christ’s true Church. The conciliar sect possesses neither valid holy orders nor jurisdiction, rendering its “indulgences” spiritually void. As Pope Leo XIII decreed in Satis Cognitum (1896):
“The practice of the Church has always been the same, as is shown by the unanimous teaching of the Fathers, who were wont to hold as outside Catholic communion… whoever would recede in the least degree from any point of doctrine proposed by her authoritative Magisterium.”
Naturalism Replaces Supernatural Faith
The report reduces pilgrimage to mere tourism statistics:
- 62.63% European participation – revealing the Eurocentric bankruptcy of the neo-church
- 1.725 billion euros spent on infrastructure – prioritizing concrete over conversion
- 0 mentions of confessions heard, sacraments administered, or souls converted
This quantitative approach fulfills Pius IX’s condemnation in the Syllabus of Errors (1864):
“The Church ought to be separated from the State, and the State from the Church” (Error 55).
Rome Mayor Roberto Gualtieri’s celebration of the “jubilee method” of church-state collaboration constitutes the very “Satanic substitution” of divine law by human politics that Pope St. Pius X warned against in Vehementer Nos (1906).
The Great Omission: No Kingdom of Christ
Nowhere does the article mention Christ the King, to whom all jubilees must be ordered. Contrast this with Pius XI’s teaching:
“When once men recognize… that Christ is King… society will at last receive the great blessings of real liberty, well-ordered discipline, peace and harmony” (Quas Primas, 19).
The conciliar sect’s jubilee instead promotes:
- False ecumenism: Welcoming “pilgrims” from 185 countries without demanding conversion (Mortalium Animos, 1928)
- Religious indifferentism: Celebrating “hope” severed from the unica spes of Christ’s Redemption
- Modernist evolution: Calling the 2033 gathering a “Jubilee of Redemption” – implying the 2025 event lacked redemption
Apostolic Succession Broken, Sacraments Invalid
The report mentions seminarians passing through the “Holy Door” – a tragic farce given that post-1968 ordinations are doubtfully valid at best. As Pope Pius XII declared in Sacramentum Ordinis (1947):
“If… the rite of sacred ordination… is changed by a heretic or schismatic, then [the sacrament] is invalid.”
The article’s photograph of modernist “seminarians” reveals young men being formed in apostasy – future agents of the anti-church. Their pilgrimage constitutes not spiritual progress but public adherence to heresy, incurring automatic excommunication (Canon 2314, 1917 Code).
Conclusion: True Catholics Must Resist
This jubilee spectacle confirms the conciliar sect’s total abandonment of Catholic principles. As Our Lord warned: “By their fruits you shall know them” (Matthew 7:16). When 33 million participants produce neither mass conversions nor moral renewal – only infrastructure projects and political photo-ops – we witness not the Church’s vitality but its counterfeit’s emptiness. True faithful must:
- Avoid all contact with these satanic parodies
- Seek valid sacraments from priests ordained before 1968
- Pray for the restoration of Christ’s true Church
Let us heed Pope St. Pius V’s decree in Quo Primum (1570): “At no time whatever can [the true Mass] be revoked or legally suppressed.” The abomination in St. Peter’s will pass; the Eternal Sacrifice endures.
