Cardinal Bo’s “Polycrisis”: A Modernist Prelate Ignores the Only True Crisis — The Apostasy Within the Church
EWTN News reports that “Cardinal” Charles Maung Bo, the archbishop of Yangon and Myanmar’s first “cardinal,” addressed the Australian Catholic Bishops’ Conference plenary assembly in Sydney on May 8, 2026, describing his country as enduring a “polycrisis” five years after the military coup. Bo spoke of overlapping economic, employment, social, health, and education crises, noting that more than 3.5 million people have been displaced and that basic healthcare and education systems have collapsed. He thanked Australian Catholics for their “solidarity” through Catholic Mission, linked his appeal to the centenary of World Mission Sunday, and called for “nonviolence” and “dialogue” amid the civil war. What is conspicuously absent from this entire address — and from the EWTN report itself — is any mention of the only crisis that ultimately matters: the crisis of souls deprived of true faith, true sacraments, and the social reign of Our Lord Jesus Christ the King. This omission is not accidental; it is the hallmark of the conciliar Church, which has replaced the supernatural mission of the Catholic Church with naturalistic humanitarianism.
