Antichurch

[EWTN News] portal reports: On March 25, 2026, the man residing in the Vatican, “Pope” Leo XIV, delivered a catechesis on the dogmatic constitution Lumen Gentium from the Second Vatican Council. He explained that the ministerial priesthood, reserved to men, is grounded in apostolic succession and the hierarchical structure of the Church, which he termed a “divine institution.” He called for priests “ardent with evangelical charity” and “courageous missionaries,” and praised a “spiritual adoption of unborn children” initiative linked to St. John Paul II’s encyclical Evangelium Vitae.

This presentation, emanating from the head of the post-conciliar sect, is not a defense of the Catholic priesthood but a masterclass in theological obfuscation and naturalistic humanism. It systematically omits the supernatural essence of the priesthood, divorces it from the immutable Tradition of the Church, and presents a “hierarchy” stripped of its divine right and purpose—the public and social reign of Christ the King. The entire discourse is a symptom of the systemic apostasy predicted by St. Pius X and condemned by Pope Pius IX’s Syllabus of Errors.
