Venezuelan Bishop-Elect Reduces Christ’s Resurrection to Mere Human Solidarity and Political Hope
EWTN News reports that José Dionisio Gómez, auxiliary bishop-elect of Caracas, Venezuela, offered reflections to ACI Prensa on how Venezuelan society can be rebuilt in light of Easter, emphasizing hope, reconciliation, and solidarity amid political and economic crisis. While invoking Christ’s resurrection, the prelate’s discourse remains entirely within the naturalistic framework of human effort, political amnesty, and social fraternity — devoid of any mention of the supernatural order, the necessity of conversion to the Catholic faith, the sacramental life, or the Social Kingship of Christ. This is precisely the hallmark of the conciliar neo-church: reducing the Gospel to a program of humanitarian optimism while remaining silent on the only true foundation of peace and justice — the reign of Christ the King over individuals, families, and states.
