VaticanNews portal reports that Robert Prevost, the usurper occupying Peter’s throne under the name “Leo XIV,” intends to publish his first encyclical titled *Magnifica humanitas* on May 25, 2026. Ostensibly focused on safeguarding the human person in the age of artificial intelligence (AI), this document is presented as a continuation of Catholic social doctrine, deliberately timed to coincide with the 135th anniversary of Leo XIII’s *Rerum novarum*. The event will feature not only cardinals and theologians aligned with the post-conciliar revolution but also executives from AI corporations like Anthropic—revealing the true spirit behind this initiative: not the defense of man made in the image of God, but the consecration of technological idolatry under the guise of pastoral concern.
The Heresy of “Human Dignity” Without God
At the heart of the conciliar sect’s social teaching lies a fatal inversion: the elevation of man apart from his Creator. The very title, *Magnifica humanitas*, echoes the modernist cult of man condemned repeatedly by the pre-conciliar Magisterium. Pius IX, in the Syllabus of Errors (1864), denounced as heretical the notion that “human reason, without any reference whatsoever to God, is the sole arbiter of truth and falsehood” (Proposition 3). Yet this is precisely the foundation upon which the entire edifice of post-conciliar anthropology rests. By speaking of “safeguarding the human person” while remaining silent on original sin, redemption through Christ, and the necessity of grace, the neo-church reduces man to a mere biological or psychological entity—ripe for manipulation by secular powers and technological systems.
This is not accidental. The omission of supernatural truths is the hallmark of Modernism, which St. Pius X defined as “the synthesis of all heresies” (Pascendi Dominici gregis, 1907). In Lamentabili sane exitu, he condemned the proposition that “truth changes with man, because it develops with him, in him, and through him” (Proposition 58)—a doctrine now enshrined in the conciliar notion of “historical consciousness.” To speak of human dignity without anchoring it in the immutable truth of man’s creation ad imaginem Dei and his ultimate end—the Beatific Vision—is to peddle naturalistic humanism, an abomination before God.
Artificial Intelligence: The New Golden Calf
The choice of artificial intelligence as the subject of this encyclical is not merely opportunistic—it is deeply symbolic. AI represents the apotheosis of rationalist pride, the belief that human reason unaided by divine revelation can not only comprehend but replicate and even surpass the faculties of the soul. This is the sin of Babel revisited, the technological tower reaching toward heaven not to glorify God but to replace Him.
Pius XI, in Quas primas (1925), warned: “When God and Jesus Christ… were removed from laws and states… the foundations of that authority were destroyed.” The enthronement of AI as a subject of papal concern signals the final capitulation of the conciliar sect to the spirit of the age. Rather than condemning the idolatry of progress, the antipope seeks to baptize it—just as his predecessors did with religious liberty (Dignitatis humanae), ecumenism (Unitatis redintegratio), and interreligious dialogue (Nostra aetate).
The inclusion of Christopher Olah, co-founder of Anthropic, among the speakers is particularly revealing. This is not dialogue with the world; it is collaboration with the architects of a system designed to centralize knowledge, control information, and ultimately shape human thought—precisely the functions once reserved to the Church. The neo-church does not challenge the technocratic order; it legitimizes it.
The Omission That Condemns: No Mention of Sin, No Call to Conversion
A true Catholic encyclical on any modern evil would begin with the diagnosis of sin and end with the call to repentance. It would affirm the reality of hell, the necessity of confession, the primacy of the Most Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, and the social reign of Christ the King. But none of this appears—nor can it—within the framework of the post-conciliar apostasy.
Leo XIII, in Rerum novarum, rooted his analysis of social ills in the Fall: “If human society is to be healed, only a return to Christian institutions can heal it.” His remedy was not adaptation to modernity but the restoration of Christian order—family, Church, state—all subject to divine law. In contrast, *Magnifica humanitas* offers no such remedy because it denies the disease. There is no mention of the devil, no warning against the snares of materialism, no exhortation to mortification or prayer. Instead, we are given the language of “dialogue,” “integral development,” and “ethical frameworks”—the sterile vocabulary of a church that has traded the sword of truth for the sponge of compromise.
The Ritual of the New Religion: Synod Hall, Not St. Peter’s Basilica
Even the venue speaks volumes. The presentation will take place in the Vatican’s Synod Hall—a space designed for the conciliar circus of “synodality,” where bishops debate as equals with laypeople and heretics alike. This is not the Basilica of St. Peter, where popes once excommunicated emperors and defined dogma ex cathedra*. It is the theater of democratized religion, where truth is negotiated rather than proclaimed.
The closing remarks by Cardinal Secretary of State Pietro Parolin—a career diplomat of the revolution—and the “blessing” by Leo XIV complete the liturgical parody. This is not a blessing in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit; it is the benediction of the abomination of desolation sitting in the temple of God (2 Thess. 2:4).
Conclusion: The Final Apostasy
*Magnifica humanitas* is not an encyclical—it is a manifesto of the fully realized Modernist church. It takes the most dangerous fruit of rationalist pride—artificial intelligence—and offers it not condemnation but co-option. It speaks of man without speaking of God. It invokes “human dignity” while denying the only source of that dignity: the Incarnate Word.
As Pius IX declared: “The Roman Pontiff can, and ought to, reconcile himself, and come to terms with progress, liberalism and modern civilization” (Proposition 80 of the Syllabus)—and this proposition, condemned as heresy in 1864, has become the operating principle of the conciliar sect. What we witness today is not the Church adapting to the times; it is the Church being consumed by them.
Let the faithful cling to the unchanging truth: Regnat Christus! Christ the King reigns—and no algorithm, no encyclical, no antipope can dethrone Him.
