The NCRegister portal reports on an address delivered on May 11, 2026, by the usurper occupying the Vatican, Leo XIV (Robert Prevost), to members of the Vatican Observatory Foundation. The central thesis of his discourse, as presented, is that the “principal threat facing both religion and science today is the denial of the existence of objective truth.” He further stated: “Too many in our world refuse to acknowledge what both science and the Church clearly teach: that we bear a solemn responsibility for the care of our planet and for the well-being of those who inhabit it, especially the most vulnerable, whose lives are threatened by the irresponsible exploitation of both people and the natural world.” This statement, while cloaking itself in the language of truth, is a masterclass in modernist equivocation, diverting attention from the objective, revealed truths of Catholic dogma toward a naturalistic, horizontal concern that characterizes the apostate conciliar sect. The thesis of this analysis is that Leo XIV’s discourse is not a defense of objective truth, but a subtle redefinition of it, replacing the immutable truths of the Catholic faith with a vague, naturalistic “care for creation” that serves the agenda of the post-conciliar revolution and its alignment with globalist, worldly priorities.
The Illusion of “Objective Truth” in a Subjectivist Framework
From the perspective of integral Catholic faith, truth is not an abstract concept to be negotiated between “science and religion,” as if they were two equal, complementary paths to the same end. Truth is the adaequatio intellectus et rei—the conformity of the intellect to the thing—and ultimately, conformity to the mind of God, Who is Truth itself. The Church has always taught that her Magisterium is the divinely appointed guardian and infallible interpreter of this objective, revealed truth. To place “science” and “religion” on the same plane, as if both merely “teach” certain things, is a profound relativization of the supernatural order. It implicitly denies the superiority of divine revelation over human inquiry.
The cited article quotes Leo XIV stating the threat is from “those who deny the very existence of objective truth.” Yet, the entire post-conciliar edifice, which this individual represents, is built upon the denial of specific, objective truths defined by the Church for millennia. This is the height of hypocrisy. The “Church” he references is not the One, Holy, Catholic, and Apostolic Church founded by Christ, but the conciliar sect that has systematically denied the objective truth of dogmas such as the extra Ecclesiam nulla salus (outside the Church there is no salvation), the intrinsic evil of certain acts, and the very nature of the Holy Mass as a propitiatory sacrifice. His call for “objective truth” is a shell game; he demands assent to a vague principle while his entire structure denies its concrete applications.
From Supernatural Salvation to Naturalistic “Care of the Planet”
The core of Leo XIV’s message, as reported, reveals the true, modernist agenda. He states that both science and the Church teach “that we bear a solemn responsibility for the care of our planet and for the well-being of those who inhabit it, especially the most vulnerable.” This is a classic maneuver of the post-conciliar apostasy: the reduction of the Church’s mission from the salvation of souls for eternal life to a temporal, horizontal agenda of social and environmental activism.
Pius XI, in his encyclical *Quas Primas*, established the Feast of Christ the King precisely to combat the laicism that removes Christ and His law from public life. He wrote that the reign of Christ extends to all men and all states, and that “the state is nothing else than a harmonious association of men” whose happiness depends on recognizing the authority of Jesus Christ. The primary duty of any true Pope, and of the Church, is to lead souls to God through the preaching of the Gospel and the administration of the sacraments. The “care of the planet” is, at best, a secondary consequence of living according to God’s law, not the primary mission of the Church. By elevating this naturalistic concern to a co-equal teaching of the Church alongside science, Leo IVX commits the error condemned by Pius X in *Pascendi Dominici Gregis*: the subordination of the supernatural to the natural, a hallmark of modernism.
The Linguistic Camouflage of Apostasy
The language used in the article is carefully crafted to sound orthodox while promoting a modernist worldview. Phrases like “rigorous and honest science” and the “wonder of astronomy” are employed to create an image of harmony. However, this harmony is achieved by lowering the Church’s supernatural claims to the level of secular science. The true “wonder” for a Catholic is not the contemplation of the heavens as a mere natural phenomenon, but the contemplation of the heavens as the work of the Creator, which leads to adoration. Leo XIV’s statement that astronomy “awakens in us both admiration and a healthy sense of proportion” is telling. A “healthy sense of proportion” is a naturalistic virtue; the supernatural virtue is humility before the infinite majesty of God, which is not a “proportion” but an abyss.
Furthermore, his lament about light pollution, paraphrasing Benedict XVI (another usurper), as “an eloquent image… of sin itself” is a trivialization of the concept of sin. Sin is not merely a failure to see the stars; it is a willful transgression of God’s law, an offense against His infinite goodness. Reducing sin to an environmental issue is a modernist tactic to psychologize and socialize guilt, removing the personal, moral dimension of sin and the need for repentance and the sacraments.
The Symptomatic Silence on True Doctrine
The most damning aspect of this address, as reported, is what it omits. There is no mention of the True God, the Holy Trinity, the Incarnation, the Redemption, the necessity of the sacraments for salvation, the reality of hell, or the duty of nations to submit to the social reign of Christ the King. There is no call to conversion, no warning against heresy or apostasy, no defense of the immutable truths of the faith against the errors of the age. The “objective truth” he defends is a hollowed-out shell, emptied of its Catholic content and filled with the concerns of the world.
This silence is not accidental; it is the defining characteristic of the conciliar sect. As St. Pius X warned in *Lamentabili Sane Exitu*, the modernists aim at such a development of dogmas as appears to be their corruption. The “objective truth” of Leo XIV is the truth of the evolving, modernist “Church,” which is no longer the pillar and bulwark of truth (1 Timothy 3:15) but a chameleon, adapting its message to the spirit of the times. His address to astronomers is a perfect microcosm of the entire post-conciliar revolution: a pious-sounding discourse that, upon examination, reveals a complete abandonment of the Church’s divine mission in favor of a naturalistic, humanistic, and ultimately, idolatrous agenda.
In conclusion, the warning issued by Leo XIV about the “denial of objective truth” is a profound act of deception. The greatest denial of objective truth today is not found in the secular world, but in the very structures of the conciliar sect that he represents. He speaks of truth while denying the specific, defined dogmas of the Catholic faith. He speaks of the Church’s teaching while replacing it with a naturalistic ethic of environmentalism. His words are not those of a successor of Peter, but of a high-ranking official in the Church of the New Advent, whose primary mission is to reconcile the world with the world, not with God. The faithful must see through this linguistic camouflage and hold fast to the immutable truths of the integral Catholic faith, which stand in stark and irreconcilable opposition to the modernist apostasy of the present usurpers.
