The Neo-Church’s “Truth”: A Humanist Shell Game Disguised as Catholic Education
The National Register portal reports on a commentary by Father Dave Pivonka, president of Franciscan University of Steubenville, praising the statements of the antipope Leo XIV regarding Catholic higher education. Pivonka enthusiastically embraces the conciliar narrative of “encounter,” “human flourishing,” and the integration of AI into academic life, presenting these as the fulfillment of the Church’s mission to “form saints.” The article reveals the complete capitulation of so-called “Catholic” education to the spirit of the world, where the supernatural order is replaced by therapeutic humanism, and the pursuit of truth is reduced to a technological and sociological exercise. This is not Catholic education; it is the final stage of the Modernist revolution’s conquest of the last bastions of resistance.
