The Hollow “Pro-Life” Charade of Conciliar Compromise
“Pro-life sentiment is rising among your peers,” said March for Life President Jennie Bradley Lichter during her keynote address at the Jan. 24 event at Georgetown University in Washington, D.C.
The EWTN News portal (January 24, 2026) reports on the Cardinal O’Connor Conference at Georgetown University, framing chemical abortion as the “most prominent issue” while exhibiting the bankrupt naturalism of the post-conciliar establishment. This gathering, occurring within a Jesuit institution long divorced from Catholic identity, epitomizes the conciliar sect’s reduction of divine law to political activism.
Naturalism Masquerading as Catholic Action
The conference’s fixation on legislative “safeguards” against chemical abortion betrays a fundamental error: the reduction of supernatural warfare to bureaucratic tinkering. Lichter’s appeal to FDA Commissioner Marty Makary and Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. reveals the movement’s capitulation to secular authority. As Pius XI condemned in Quas Primas (1925):
“Rulers of states therefore not refuse public veneration and obedience to the reigning Christ… to contribute to the increase of their homeland’s happiness.”
Yet nowhere does the article demand civil leaders’ submission to Christ the King. The silence echoes the modernist heresy condemned in Pius X’s Lamentabili Sane (1907), which rejected the Church’s divine constitution in favor of secular governance (Proposition 19).
The Georgetown Scandal: Apostate Ground for “Pro-Life” Theater
Holding a “pro-life” conference at Georgetown – an institution awarding honors to abortion advocates – constitutes grave scandal. The university’s “Right to Life” group operates under heretical Jesuit superiors who permit Buddhist chapels and LGBTQ clubs on campus. This violates Canon 1258 of the 1917 Code:
“It is not lawful for Catholics to assist actively or have any part in the sacred [rites] of non-Catholics.”
Elizabeth Oliver’s admission that chemical abortion is a “silent genocide” rings hollow when her organization remains in communion with Georgetown’s apostate leadership. True Catholic action requires separation from doctrinal corrupters, as mandated in St. Pius X’s Pascendi Dominici Gregis (1907).
Theological Vacuum: Where is the Call to Conversion?
Not once does the conference mention the necessity of:
1. Sacramental confession for abortionists and collaborators
2. Reparation for the 1.5 billion unborn slaughtered since Vatican II
3. Restoration of the Social Kingship of Christ
This omission 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).
By reducing abortion to a policy dispute rather than crimen nefandum demanding excommunication, the speakers deny the Church’s judicial authority (Canon 2229).
False Ecumenism in “Life Issues” Coalitions
The inclusion of non-Catholic speakers like Kimberly Henkel (Springs of Love) and ambiguous clerics like Dominican Fr. Gregory Pine – who promotes communion with antipopes – violates Pius XI’s Mortalium Animos (1928):
“The union of Christians can only be promoted by promoting the return to the one true Church of Christ.”
This ecumenical betrayal mirrors the conciliar sect’s embrace of heretics at Assisi 1986, where John Paul II prayed with pagans.
Conclusion: A Movement Doomed by Conciliar Compromise
Until the “pro-life” movement:
1. Denounces the antipopes from John XXIII to Leo XIV
2. Demands the State recognize Christ’s reign (Quas Primas)
3. Restores the Tridentine Mass as the ultimate protest against the culture of death
All efforts remain sterile activism. As Our Lord warned: “Without Me, you can do nothing” (John 15:5). The blood of the unborn cries out not for FDA reforms, but for the Church’s return to Her divine mission: converting nations to the One True Faith.
