Vatican News portal reports on the aftermath of devastating earthquakes in Venezuela, highlighting the figure of “Pope” Leo XIV offering prayers and expressing gratitude to rescue workers, while tens of thousands remain missing and the population accuses the government of inadequate response. The article presents the conciliar sect’s leader as a source of comfort in humanitarian crisis, yet nowhere is mentioned the only true supernatural aid: the sacraments, the intercession of the Blessed Virgin Mary, or the necessity of repentance.
Natural Disaster in Venezuela Exploited to Showcase the Usurper’s Empty Gestures
Venezuela has been struck by a series of catastrophic earthquakes, leaving nearly 1,500 dead and some 50,000 missing. Rescue operations continue around the clock, focusing especially on the state of La Guaira. The world watches the suffering of a nation, and the conciliar sect’s occupant of the Vatican, Leo XIV, has made sure to insert himself into the narrative. His “prayers” and “closeness” are broadcast by Vatican News, which functions as the public relations branch of the post-conciliar revolution. The entire episode is a textbook example of how the modernist establishment reduces the Church to a humanitarian NGO, while ignoring the only matters that truly save souls.
The Absence of True Spiritual Remedy
The Vatican News report is meticulously silent on the supernatural. There is no call to repentance, no mention of the sacraments as the sole means of sanctifying grace, no appeal to the intercession of the Blessed Virgin Mary or the saints. The only “spiritual” content is a vague expression of “closeness” and “gratitude” from Leo XIV, who, as a manifest heretic and usurper, possesses no authority to lead souls to God. According to the perennial teaching of the Church, a manifest heretic ceases to be Pope and head, just as he ceases to be a Christian and member of the body of the Church (St. Robert Bellarmine, De Romano Pontifice). Leo XIV’s very presence on the throne is a fruit of the apostasy condemned by Pius XI in Quas Primas: the removal of Christ and His law from society, both private and public.
The article’s silence on the state of grace, final judgment, and the necessity of the true Church for salvation is not an oversight; it is the logical consequence of the modernist dogma of religious liberty and the false ecumenism that treats all religions as equally valid paths to God. This error was condemned without ambiguity by Pius IX in the Syllabus of Errors (propositions 15-18) and by Gregory XVI in Mirari Vos. The conciliar sect has institutionalized these heresies, and its humanitarian messaging is their natural fruit.
The Hermeneutic of Humanitarianism
The language of the article is revealing. Leo XIV is presented as grateful to those “generously carrying out search and rescue efforts.” The focus is entirely on temporal relief—food, water, machinery, rescue dogs. The Church’s mission, however, is not to distribute bread and blankets but to save souls through preaching the Gospel, administering the sacraments, and leading all nations to baptism and obedience to the true Pope. As Pius XI taught in Quas Primas, the reign of Christ extends over all men, including non-Christians, and the Church cannot renounce her right to teach, govern, and lead all to eternal happiness. By reducing the Church’s role to a vague expression of solidarity, the conciliar sect fulfills the prophecy of St. Pius X in Pascendi Dominici Gregis: the transformation of the Church into a purely naturalistic institution concerned only with temporal welfare.
The article also omits any reference to the true source of supernatural aid: the Most Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, the sacrament of penance, the rosary, and the scapular. Instead, the only “prayers” mentioned are those of a man who publicly professes heresy and participates in the idolatrous rites of the conciliar sect. Such prayers, if they are not directed toward the true God through the true Church, are at best empty words and at worst blasphemy.
The Political Subtext
The suffering of the Venezuelan people is real, but the article’s framing serves the interests of the post-conciliar establishment. By highlighting the “Pope’s” response, Vatican News reinforces the illusion that the structures occupying the Vatican are the true Church. The article quotes the acting president of Venezuela, Delcy Rodríguez, assuring that rescue efforts will continue with international support. There is no mention of the socialist, anti-Catholic ideology of the Maduro regime, which has systematically persecuted the faithful and collaborated with the conciliar sect in undermining the true Church in Venezuela. The omission is deliberate: the modernist Vatican has no interest in denouncing the enemies of Christ the King, because it has itself become an instrument of the world.
The Only True Response
The only adequate Catholic response to natural disaster is threefold: immediate and public repentance, the offering of the true Mass for the victims and for the conversion of the nation, and the preaching of the Gospel, including the social kingship of Christ. The conciliar sect offers none of this. Its “prayers” are a sham, its “sacraments” are invalid or sacrilegious, and its message is one of naturalistic humanism. The faithful must reject this counterfeit and turn to the true Church, which endures in the remnant who profess the integral Catholic faith and are led by validly ordained bishops and priests outside the conciliar structure.
The earthquakes in Venezuela are a reminder of the fragility of earthly life and the certainty of divine judgment. The only lasting peace, as Pius XI declared, is possible in the kingdom of Christ. That kingdom is not represented by Leo XIV or the post-conciliar structures, but by the unchanging Catholic Church, outside of which there is no salvation. Let us pray for the true conversion of Venezuela and the whole world, and let us reject the false shepherds who lead souls to perdition with empty words and humanitarian platitudes.
