Conciliar Sect’s Zen Conviction: Naturalist Martyrdom Masquerading as Catholic Witness
EWTN News portal reports (September 3, 2026) that a Hong Kong appellate panel upheld convictions against the conciliar sect’s “Cardinal” Joseph Zen and four lay collaborators for operating an unregistered “society”—the 612 Humanitarian Relief Fund—aiding 2019–2020 protesters against the Chinese Communist Party. The piece frames the verdict as a blow to “pro-democracy” activism and “religious freedom,” highlighting fines of roughly $500 while noting the defendants escaped far graver “national security” charges. **The article epitomizes the conciliar sect’s reduction of the Church’s divine mission to secular human-rights advocacy, canonizing liberalism as the new gospel.**
