Antipope Leo XIV’s Paris Spectacle: Naturalistic Youth Ministry Replaces the Kingship of Christ
The Vatican News portal reports on a staged encounter between the usurper “Pope” Leo XIV (Robert Prevost) and a young French business graduate named Jason during the antipope’s apostolic journey to Paris. The piece presents a sanitized, emotion-driven testimony devoid of supernatural density: a 25-year-old speaks of faith as a psychological crutch (“sustains me”), evangelization as casual conversation (“show Christ through what I’m going to do”), and religious unity as “building bridges” while “respecting all opinions.” The antipope is praised for having “the Word” and being “incredible.” Social media is hailed as a vehicle for the Gospel.
