The EWTN portal (July 6, 2026) reports that the U.S. Solicitor General, the “USCCB,” and a coalition of states and “Republican” politicians have urged the Supreme Court to force Colorado to include “Catholic” preschools in its universal state-funded program. The case, St. Mary Catholic Parish v. Roy, centers on two preschools under the Archdiocese of Denver that demand public money while refusing to comply with state mandates on “marriage, sexuality, and employment.” The Becket Fund for Religious Liberty frames this as a First Amendment victory. This legal theater exposes the conciliar sect’s total capitulation to the secular state: it begs Caesar for funding while surrendering the Social Kingship of Christ, mistaking religious liberty—a condemned Masonic error—for a Catholic right.
The Conciliar Sect’s Illegitimate Standing Before a Masonic Tribunal
The article treats the “Archdiocese of Denver,” the “USCCB,” and “St. Mary Catholic Parish” as legitimate Catholic entities. They are not. Since the usurpation of the Holy See by John XXIII in 1958, the structures occupying the Vatican have erected a paramasonic structure—the “Church of the New Advent”—which has no jurisdiction, no mission, and no sacraments. The “bishops” of this sect, including the “Archbishop of Denver,” derive their “ordination” from the dubious rites of Paul VI or the Masonic prelate Liénart (in the case of Lefebvre’s line). No entity in communion with the antipope Leo XIV (Prevost) can claim the name “Catholic.” When the “USCCB” files a brief, it speaks not for the Church of Christ but for a neo-church that has de facto apostatized by embracing religious liberty, ecumenism, and collegiality. Its “parishes” are mere corporations under civil law, simulating Catholicism while denying its integral doctrine.
Religious Liberty: The Masonic Poison Condemned by the Syllabus and Pius XI
The entire argument of the Solicitor General, the Becket Fund, and the “USCCB” rests on the First Amendment and the heresy of religious liberty. This is the very error anathematized by Pope Pius IX in the Syllabus of Errors (1864): “Every man is free to embrace and profess that religion which, guided by the light of reason, he shall consider true” (Error 15) and “The Roman Pontiff can, and ought to, reconcile himself, and come to terms with progress, liberalism and modern civilization” (Error 80). Pope Leo XIII condemned the “Americanist” heresy of separating Church and State. Pope St. Pius X in Pascendi Dominici Gregis and Lamentabili Sane Exitu identified the root of this error in Modernism’s subjection of faith to conscience and history. To argue for “free exercise” before a secular court is to admit that the State is the source of rights, not God. As Pius XI thundered in Quas Primas: “When God and Jesus Christ… were removed from laws and states and when authority was derived not from God but from men, the foundations of that authority were destroyed.” The conciliar sect’s lawyers cite Trinity Lutheran, Espinoza, and Carson v. Makin as “precedents strengthening protections”—they cite the judgments of a Masonic judiciary as their theology.
The Theological Bankruptcy of Begging for State Funding
The “Catholic” preschools demand access to Colorado’s “universal preschool program”—a naturalistic scheme of state education that usurps the rights of parents and the Church. Pius XI in Quas Primas and Divini Illius Magistri (1929) teaches that education belongs primarily to the Church and the family, not the State. By suing for inclusion, the conciliar sect acknowledges the State’s right to fund and regulate education. It accepts the laicist premise that the State may dispense “benefits” to which religious groups have a “claim.” This is the hermeneutic of capitulation: “They can either adhere to their faith… and lose the subsidy, or obtain the subsidy but abandon their religious beliefs”—the Solicitor General’s own words reveal the trap. The conciliar sect wants the subsidy and the “faith,” but its “faith” is already the counterfeit religion of Vatican II, which Dignitatis Humanae explicitly subordinates to civil order. The “Catholic teachings” on “marriage, sexuality, and employment” that these preschools claim to uphold are likely the watered-down, pastoral accommodations of the neo-church, not the immutable doctrine of the Council of Trent and Casti Connubii.
The Becket Fund: Agents of the Masonic “Religious Liberty” Strategy
The Becket Fund for Religious Liberty is not a Catholic apostolate; it is a liberal legal NGO that defends “religious freedom” for all sects—Muslim, Jewish, Protestant, Mormon—on the indifferentist principle that “Man may, in the observance of any religion whatever, find the way of eternal salvation” (Syllabus, Error 16). Its vice president, Eric Rassbach, celebrates a “diverse array of Americans” united against Colorado. This coalition of “faith groups” is the syncretism condemned by Pius XI: “the Christian religion began to be equated with other false religions and shamelessly placed in the same category.” The Becket Fund’s strategy is to entrench the Masonic First Amendment as the guarantor of Church freedom, replacing the Social Kingship of Christ with the kingship of the Constitution. This is the abomination of desolation standing in the holy place: the neo-church worshipping at the altar of the secular state.
Silence on the Supernatural: The Gravest Accusation
Read the EWTN article again. There is not a single mention of the Kingship of Christ, the salvation of souls, the State’s duty to confess the true Religion, or the final judgment. The “USCCB” brief warns only of a “roadmap for governments to circumvent this court’s decisions.” The parents, Dan and Lisa Sheley, complain of “unfairness” and the “spirit of the Constitution’s promise.” This is pure naturalism. The Syllabus condemns: “The teaching of the Catholic Church is hostile to the well-being and interests of society” (Error 40)—the conciliar sect inverts this, begging the State to affirm its “interest.” The Lamentabili decree condemns the Modernist error: “The dogmas of faith should be understood according to their practical function, i.e., as binding in action, rather than as principles of belief” (Error 26). Here, “religious liberty” becomes a pragmatic tool to keep preschools open, not a dogmatic truth to be rejected. The neo-church has no supernatural mission; it seeks only temporal survival within the Masonic order.
The Sedevacantist Imperative: Reject the Secular Court, Proclaim Christ the King
From the perspective of integral Catholic faith—the only criterion—this lawsuit is a scandal. True Catholic bishops (validly ordained before 1968, holding the Faith entire) would excommunicate any “Catholic” institution suing the State for funding on grounds of “religious liberty.” They would teach, with Pius XI: “Let rulers of states therefore not refuse public veneration and obedience to the reigning Christ… if they wish to maintain their authority inviolate.” They would declare, with Pope Celestine I against Nestorius: “he could not remove anyone by sentence who himself had already shown that he must be removed”—the “bishops” of the neo-church, having defected from the Faith, have no jurisdiction to run schools, file briefs, or claim the name Catholic. The Colorado preschools, if truly Catholic, would reject all state money, teach the Catechism of Trent, and denounce the “universal preschool program” as a usurpation of parental and ecclesiastical rights. Instead, the conciliar sect stages a legal farce, winning perhaps a temporal exemption while losing the eternal Kingdom. Non est potestas nisi a Deo (There is no power but from God)—the Supreme Court, the Solicitor General, the “USCCB,” and the Becket Fund all deny this truth. Their “victory” will be another nail in the coffin of the neo-church, which, having sold its birthright for a mess of pottage (state funding), finds itself outside the Church, outside the Faith, outside Salvation.
