EWTN News reports (January 29, 2026) on Noblesville High School’s censorship of Students for Life club posters advocating defunding Planned Parenthood. School officials deemed flyers “too political” while permitting approximately 70 other student groups to promote their messages. The Alliance Defending Freedom legal group filed a Supreme Court petition arguing this constitutes unconstitutional viewpoint discrimination under the First Amendment. Students for Life president Kristan Hawkins condemned the censorship as “typical abuse” against pro-life speech.
Naturalism Masquerading as Neutrality
The school’s claim of political neutrality constitutes a fundamental deception rooted in Enlightenment errors condemned by Pius IX’s Syllabus of Errors (1864). By treating the defense of innocent life as mere partisan politics, administrators embrace the condemned proposition that “the Church ought to be separated from the State” (Syllabus, Error 55). This false neutrality violates the principle that civil authority must recognize Christ’s kingship over all temporal affairs, as Pius XI declared in Quas Primas: “Rulers of states…publicly honor Christ and obey Him” lest they incur divine judgment.
The linguistic subterfuge of labeling pro-life advocacy as “political” reveals the praeparatio evangelica of antichristian systems. When Pius XI condemned those who “remove Jesus Christ and His most holy law from…public life,” he precisely foretold this censorship of moral truths from education. The school’s behavior manifests the “secularism of our times” which Quas Primas identifies as poisoning society by denying Christ’s reign.
Juridical Farce Amid Moral Collapse
Appealing to the Supreme Court demonstrates the futile hope of finding justice in a regime founded on religious indifferentism. The First Amendment itself embodies the heretical principle that “every man is free to embrace and profess that religion which…he shall consider true” (Syllabus, Error 15). When the Alliance Defending Freedom attorney claims “students don’t lose their constitutionally protected freedom of speech,” he invokes a document whose very framework rejects the social kingship of Christ.
This legal battle occurs within a nation where 63 million children have been slaughtered since Roe v. Wade – a genocide enabled by the American hierarchy’s failure to enforce Canon 2335 (1917 Code) against abortion collaborators. That Students for Life must beg permission to hang posters illustrates the total collapse of Catholic Action principles, replaced by Protestantized “rights” discourse. As St. Pius X warned in Pascendi, modernists reduce religion to “vital immanence” – here manifested as free speech becoming the highest good rather than truth.
Symptomatic Apostasy of Conciliar Silence
The article’s glaring omission exposes the conciliar sect’s betrayal: nowhere do “bishops” condemn this censorship or defend the students. This silence fulfills Pius XI’s warning in Quas Primas about clergy who “fear that some may find [truth] controversial.” The post-conciliar hierarchy’s obsession with “dialogue” has produced pastors who tolerate child-murderers while persecuting those who resist them.
When the legal group cites unequal treatment of student clubs, they unwittingly highlight the anti-church’s identical discrimination against faithful Catholics. Just as the school bans pro-life messages while permitting pro-sodomy clubs, the Vatican occupiers suppress the Traditional Mass while embracing pagan rituals. Both operate on the same relativistic principle condemned by St. Pius X: “Truth changes with man” (Lamentabili, Error 58).
The Only Remedy: Restoration of Christ’s Kingship
No court ruling can fix education systems built on the condemned proposition that “human reason…is the sole arbiter of truth” (Syllabus, Error 3). As Pius XI taught, lasting peace requires societies where “the entire human race is subject to the authority of Jesus Christ” (Quas Primas). The Students for Life posters – however well-intentioned – become powerless gestures when disconnected from the integral Catholic faith that demands civilizational submission to Christ the King.
Until Catholics recognize that pleading with anti-Christian governments constitutes spiritual adultery, such battles will continue. The true solution lies not in Supreme Court petitions, but in restoring the Social Reign of Christ through sacramental life, doctrinal clarity, and rejection of all conciliar compromises. As Pope St. Pius X declared: “The one duty of the multitude is to allow themselves to be led, and, like a docile flock, to follow the Pastors.”
