Eucharistic Procession at the Angelicum: A Spectacle Masking Doctrinal Collapse

National Catholic Register portal reports that on April 16, 2026, the Pontifical University of St. Thomas Aquinas (“the Angelicum”) in Rome celebrated 25 years of student-led Eucharistic adoration with a solemn procession led by Cardinal Dominique Mamberti, prefect of the Apostolic Signatura. The event, covered by EWTN News, featured homilies referencing the soon-to-be Blessed Fulton Sheen and statements from Dominican Father Thomas Joseph White, rector of the Angelicum, who described the procession as indicative of a “revival among the young.” Students from around the world participated, with one Singaporean theology student describing the adoration program as a “blessing” that allows students to “see Jesus during their breaks.” The article notes that both “St. John Paul II” and “Pope Leo XIV” studied at this institution. What appears on the surface as a pious celebration is, upon closer examination, a carefully orchestrated spectacle that masks the profound doctrinal collapse within the conciliar sect, using the language of Eucharistic devotion to legitimize structures that have systematically undermined the very faith they claim to profess.

When Caesar Demands the Pope Shut Up: The Apostasy Behind “Stick to Morality”

Leave a Comment / Antichurch / amdg

National Catholic Register (April 17, 2026) reports that Vice President JD Vance, when asked about the usurper in the Vatican’s statements on the Iran war, declared it “best for the Vatican to stick to matters of morality… and let the president of the United States stick to dictating American public policy.” Three conciliar “theologians” — Joseph Capizzi, Taylor Patrick O’Neill, and Ron Bolster — were summoned to refute Vance’s dichotomy between morality and politics, affirming that the Church has a role in moral judgment on war. Yet their entire response, while superficially orthodox-sounding, operates within the framework of the post-conciliar neo-church and its usurper “pope,” thereby revealing the deeper apostasy: the Church’s supreme moral authority over all nations and rulers is reduced to mere “input” from one institutional actor among many, while the public, divinely ordained reign of Christ the King over states — not merely over individual souls — is entirely erased from the discussion.

Leo XIV’s Cameroon Spectacle: Hope Without Christ Is Despair

Leave a Comment / Antichurch / amdg

Vatican News portal reports on the visit of the usurper Leo XIV (Robert Prevost) to the Catholic University of Central Africa in Yaoundé, Cameroon, on April 17, 2026. The article describes an “enthusiastic welcome” with 8,000 attendees, students waving Vatican flags, and testimonials about “rekindling hope” among youth. Students and religious shared their aspirations for education, nursing science, and community service, while the “pope” encouraged them to be “protagonists of the future.” The article highlights challenges like unemployment and frames the visit as a “blessing” that activated young people’s vision. This spectacle of naturalistic encouragement, devoid of any mention of the supernatural necessity of the Catholic faith, the sacraments, or the Social Reign of Christ the King, perfectly encapsulates the conciliar sect’s reduction of the Church’s mission to mere humanitarian activism — a betrayal of the integral Catholic faith that demands the salvation of souls, not merely the improvement of temporal conditions.

Copyright Dispute Over Hymns Exposes the Bankruptcy of Conciliar Liturgical Culture

Leave a Comment / Antichurch / amdg

EWTN News reports that a U.S. jury dismissed the copyright infringement claim brought by Catholic composer Vincent Ambrosetti against songwriter Bernadette Farrell and Oregon Catholic Press. Ambrosetti had alleged that Farrell’s 1993 hymn “Christ Be Our Light” unlawfully copied his 1980 composition “Emmanuel.” The jury found that Ambrosetti failed to prove his case “by a preponderance of the evidence,” siding with the defendants after deliberating for less than a day. The case, originally filed in 2020, was briefly dismissed in 2024 before an appeals court revived it in August 2025. Despite testimony from a New York University music professor claiming “strong objective musicological evidence of copying,” the jury was unconvinced. Ambrosetti has signaled a possible further appeal. On its surface, this is a mundane intellectual property dispute. Yet examined from the perspective of integral Catholic faith, the case is a revealing symptom of the profound liturgical, theological, and spiritual collapse wrought by the conciliar revolution — a collapse so total that the Church’s own “publishers” and “composers” now litigate over the ownership of songs that, in many cases, should never have been sung in any Catholic liturgy in the first place.

Archbishop Wenski’s Plea for Federal Funds Exposes the Conciliar Church’s Subservience to Secular Power

Leave a Comment / Antichurch / amdg

The National Catholic Register reports that Archbishop Thomas Wenski of Miami held a press conference on April 15, 2026, urging the U.S. government to reconsider the cancellation of an $11 million federal contract with Catholic Charities of the Archdiocese of Miami. The contract funded the Unaccompanied Minors Program, which has operated since 1960 and traces its origins to Operation Pedro Pan, which resettled approximately 14,000 Cuban children fleeing the Castro regime. Wenski called the decision “baffling,” arguing that Catholic Charities’ “track record in serving this vulnerable population is unmatched” and that the program would be “hard-pressed to replicate.” Florida Republican Representatives María Elvira Salazar and Carlos Giménez also issued a letter urging reconsideration, warning of potential future migration from Cuba and Haiti. Peter Routsis-Arroyo, executive director of Catholic Charities, stated the organization received no warning and is seeking a 90-day extension. The article presents the funding cut as a humanitarian crisis, with Wenski and others appealing to the government’s sense of pragmatism and compassion. This entire episode lays bare the theological bankruptcy of the post-conciliar institution: a so-called “archbishop” of the conciliar sect, occupying a once-Catholic see, groveling before a secular government for funds to sustain a program that, however superficially charitable, operates within a framework utterly divorced from the supernatural mission of the true Church of Christ.

The Neo-Church’s “Search for Truth” Without Christ the King Is a Descent Into Relativism

EWTN News reports that on April 17, 2026, the antipope Leo XIV addressed students at the Catholic Academic Institution of Central Africa (UCAC) in Yaoundé, Cameroon, encouraging them in a “common search for truth” and inviting them to pioneer “a new humanism in the context of the digital revolution.” The event, attended by 8,000 people, also featured the inauguration of a square named after St. Augustine and plans for a “Leo XIV Catholic University Center.” The antipope quoted the heretic John Henry Newman and Francis’ encyclical Lumen Fidei, warning about artificial intelligence and calling for “humanistic formation.” This address perfectly encapsulates the post-conciliar apostasy: a “search for truth” deliberately severed from the social reign of Christ the King, the unchanging Magisterium, and the supernatural order, reducing the Faith to a vague humanism compatible with any ideology.

EWTN News Vatican Bureau reports that on April 16, 2026, the Pontifical University of St. Thomas Aquinas (the “Angelicum”) in Rome celebrated 25 years of student-led Eucharistic adoration with a solemn procession led by Cardinal Dominique Mamberti, prefect of the Apostolic Signatura. The article highlights the participation of students and faculty, quoting Mamberti on the Real Presence and referencing the soon-to-be Blessed Fulton Sheen. Dominican Father Thomas Joseph White, rector of the Angelicum, described the event as indicative of a “revival among the young,” linking it to the teachings of St. John Paul II and St. Thomas Aquinas. Students expressed appreciation for the opportunity to pray before the Eucharist between classes. What appears on the surface as a pious celebration is, upon closer examination, a carefully orchestrated spectacle that masks the profound theological and spiritual bankruptcy of the post-conciliar structures occupying the Vatican.

Coast Guard Religious Accommodation Settlement: A Naturalist Compromise Masking Deeper Apostasy

Leave a Comment / Antichurch / amdg

EWTN News reports that the U.S. Coast Guard has agreed to a settlement with the Thomas More Society, committing to “individualized reviews” of religious accommodation requests, mandatory religious liberty training for leadership, and public reporting of accommodation data. The lawsuit, filed in 2022, alleged that the Coast Guard “categorically denied virtually all religious accommodation requests” related to its COVID-19 vaccine mandate. While the mandate has since been rescinded, the settlement is presented as a “model for every branch of the military.” The primary plaintiffs—Lts. Alaric Stone and Mack Marcenelle, and Boatswain’s Mate First Class Eric Jackson—were “wrongly accused of violating lawful orders,” according to Marcenelle. The government will pay $750,000 in attorney’s fees. This settlement, framed as a victory for religious liberty, is in fact a naturalist compromise that fails to address the deeper apostasy within the military and the post-conciliar Church, revealing the conciliar sect’s inability to uphold the absolute primacy of God’s laws over human decrees.
