The Neo-Church’s Manufactured Saints: A Machinery of Canonization Without Truth
The National Catholic Register portal reports that on June 18, 2026, the antipope Leo XIV signed decrees declaring several individuals “Venerable,” including American religious sister Mary Teresa Tallon, foundress of the Parish Visitors of Mary Immaculate. The article presents this as a routine step toward sainthood, noting her birth in 1867, her time with the Sisters of the Holy Cross, and her founding of a new congregation in 1920. It also mentions the recognition of martyrdom for Juan Torres Torres and 19 companions killed during the Spanish Civil War. The entire piece operates within the framework of the post-conciliar canonization machinery, treating it as a legitimate exercise of authority — an assumption that collapses under even the slightest scrutiny from the perspective of integral Catholic doctrine.
