EWTN News reports that USCCB leaders Edward Burns, Daniel Thomas, and Elias Zaidan issued a statement supporting expanded State Department rules prohibiting taxpayer funding of foreign NGOs promoting abortion or gender ideology. The bishops claim these “Promoting Human Flourishing in Foreign Assistance” policies align with Catholic values while urging implementation that “recognizes the inherent dignity of every human person” without harming marginalized groups. The article quotes Thomas emphasizing opposition to “ideological colonization” through abortion funding.
Conciliar Functionaries Legitimize Antichrist’s Political Order
The so-called “bishops'” statement constitutes blasphemous collaboration with the murderous abortion regime by treating the Mexico City Policy expansion as morally acceptable. As the Syllabus of Errors condemned by Pius IX demonstrates: “Every man is free to embrace and profess that religion which, guided by the light of reason, he shall consider true” (Proposition 15) – this policy’s foundation in religious indifferentism renders it intrinsically evil. By applauding temporal powers for marginally restricting blood money flows rather than demanding abortion’s total criminalization, these conciliar officials expose their allegiance to the modernist project of reducing Catholicism to a humanitarian NGO.
Pius XI’s Quas Primas establishes the Social Kingship of Christ as the only solution: “Nations will be reminded by the annual celebration of this feast that not only private individuals but also rulers and princes are bound to give public honor and obedience to Christ.” The USCCB’s failure to demand nations submit to Christ’s reign while bargaining over abortion funding thresholds proves their apostasy. When Thomas claims “taxpayer dollars have no business funding organizations that target vulnerable populations with abortion,” he employs the language of bureaucratic utilitarianism rather than declaring abortion’s intrinsic evil. This mirrors the conciliar sect’s abandonment of extra Ecclesiam nulla salus – reducing dogma to policy preferences.
Naturalism Replaces Supernatural Faith in “Pro-Life” Posturing
The bishops’ emphasis on “human dignity” without reference to original sin, sanctifying grace, or the Four Last Things reveals their fundamental naturalism. Pius X’s Lamentabili Sane condemned the Modernist tenet that “Revelation was merely man’s self-awareness of his relationship to God” (Proposition 20) – precisely the anthropocentric heresy underlying this statement. By framing opposition to abortion through secular “flourishing” rhetoric rather than the Church’s doctrine of the propitiatory sacrifice, these functionaries reduce Catholicism to Enlightenment ethics.
Their concern for “racially or ethnically marginalized” groups being harmed by policy implementation continues Vatican II’s Marxist-inspired liberation theology. As the Syllabus declares: “The Church ought to be separated from the State, and the State from the Church” (Proposition 55) – this socialist fixation on temporal equity constitutes heresy. Authentic Catholic charity requires converting souls to Christ the King, not optimizing colonial-era grievance hierarchies. The absence of any mention of missionary activity or the necessity of baptism proves their complete surrender to religious indifferentism.
Gender Ideology Opposition Serves Globalist Power Structures
The CGIFA and CDEIFA policies restricting gender ideology and DEI initiatives receive praise precisely because they align with neoconservative geopolitical interests rather than Catholic truth. When conciliar officials denounce “ideological colonization,” they parrot State Department talking points while remaining silent about the true colonization – the conciliar sect’s destruction of the Roman Rite and global imposition of the Novus Ordo abomination.
Their selective opposition to transgenderism while tolerating sodomy and contraception exemplifies the diabolical disorientation of post-conciliarism. As Pius XI taught: “Christ reigns in the minds of men by His teachings… in the will of men by His law… in the hearts of men by His love.” The USCCB’s compartmentalized morality – opposing some sins while ignoring others – constitutes formal cooperation with evil. Until these pseudo-shepherds demand the restoration of the Social Kingship of Christ through the Consecration of Russia and public recantation of Vatican II’s errors, their “pro-life” posturing remains satanic deception.
