Camino Deception: Conciliar Sect Peddles Therapeutic Tourism as Pilgrimage
The National Catholic Register portal, the flagship propaganda organ of the EWTN media empire — itself a flagship of the conciliar sect occupying the Vatican — reports on July 24, 2026, under the byline of Bénédicte Cedergren, an associate producer for EWTN News Nightly, a feature article glorifying the Camino de Santiago as a venue for “life-changing encounters with God” experienced by a Croatian-Australian Olympian, a Canadian Protestant, and an Australian agnostic. The article celebrates the influx of “atheists, agnostics and spiritual seekers” onto the ancient route, framing their psychotherapeutic epiphanies, emotional breakdowns, and subjective “surrenders” as authentic movements of grace, while conspicuously omitting the necessity of the Catholic Faith, the Sacraments, the unity of the Church, and the Social Kingship of Christ the King. This reportage stands as a quintessential manifesto of the conciliar sect’s apostasy: the reduction of the supernatural pilgrimage — a work of penance and prayer for the remission of sin and the salvation of souls — into a commodity of the therapeutic tourism industry, peddling religious indifferentism and Protestant subjectivism under the veneer of Catholic tradition.
