The Usurper’s “Religious Liberty”: A Heretical Foundation for the Reign of Man Over God
EWTN portal reports that the usurper Robert Prevost, styling himself “Pope Leo XIV,” delivered a commendatory message to the Becket Fund for Religious Liberty at its 2026 Canterbury Medal Gala in Philadelphia. The message, read by Philadelphia “Archbishop” Nelson Pérez, praised the organization’s defense of “religious liberty” as “the cornerstone of any just society” and linked it to the “innate dignity” of the human person as expressed in the Declaration of Independence. The article further highlights the award of the Canterbury Medal to William P. Mumma and statements by Becket Fund President Mark Rienzi emphasizing the centrality of religious freedom to the American story. This commendation is not merely a diplomatic courtesy; it is a public, formal endorsement by the occupant of the Vatican of the very heretical principle of religious liberty that the true Church has consistently condemned as a pestilential error against the Social Kingship of Christ and the duty of states to recognize Him as their supreme Lawgiver and King.
