Bishops’ Boarding School Bill: Modernist Naturalism Masquerading as Justice

[EWTN News] reports that four U.S. “bishops”—Archbishop Shelton Fabre of Louisville, and Bishops John Folda of Fargo, Robert Brennan of Brooklyn, and Barry Knestout of Richmond—have urged Congress to pass a bill (HR 7325) establishing a commission to investigate the historical Indian boarding school system. The letter acknowledges a “moral failure” in the forced removal of Native children and the “lasting trauma” it caused, and supports a “Truth and Healing Commission” involving government and religious institutions.

This action is not a courageous act of Catholic justice; it is a supreme manifestation of the post-conciliar Church’s apostasy, reducing the supernatural mission of the Church to the naturalistic, secular humanism condemned by Pope Pius IX. It is a public repudiation of the Social Kingship of Our Lord Jesus Christ and an implicit acceptance of the modernist errors enumerated in the Syllabus of Errors.
