The Vatican-China Betrayal: How the Conciliar Sect Sacrificed Underground Catholics to Communist Persecution
The National Catholic Register reports that Human Rights Watch has documented escalating Chinese Communist Party persecution of underground Catholics, with researcher Yalkun Uluyol stating that the 2018 Holy See-China agreement has “provided an overarching structure for the authorities to pressure underground Catholics.” The report claims nine witnesses said the agreement left them “no other choice but to join the official church” and that those remaining underground “felt betrayed by the Vatican.” Hudson Institute fellow Nina Shea called the Vatican’s China policy “disastrous,” noting that “faithful Catholic bishops are subjected by the government to being disappeared, detained indefinitely without due process.” The article concludes by noting that Pope Benedict XVI’s designated May 24 World Day of Prayer for the Church in China has been “virtually forgotten” by the Vatican. This report exposes the inevitable fruit of the conciliar sect’s policy of dialogue with persecutors rather than defending the faith — a policy rooted in the modernist abandonment of the Church’s divine mission and the public reign of Christ the King.
