Manila’s Idolatrous Spectacle Masquerading as Catholic Devotion
Catholic News Agency reports on the January 9, 2026 “Feast of the Black Nazarene” in Manila, Philippines, where 9.6 million people participated in a 30-hour procession of a darkened wooden statue. The article describes Bishop Rufino Sescon Jr. (Diocese of Balanga) condemning political corruption during his homily while praising devotees’ “toughness.” The report highlights emotional testimonies from participants and quotes Cardinal Jose Advincula’s call for “humility,” omitting any reference to the sacraments or the social reign of Christ the King.
Manila’s Millions in Misguided Devotion: Naturalism Masquerading as Piety
The Vatican News portal reports on January 14, 2026, about nearly 10 million Filipinos participating in the Feast of the Black Nazarene, highlighting the 31-hour procession of a fire-darkened 17th-century statue through Manila’s streets. The article emphasizes crowd size, barefoot pilgrims in maroon garments, and devotees attempting to touch the carriage carrying the image as central elements of what it calls “one of the most popular religious celebrations in Asia.” The celebration culminates in returning the statue to Quiapo Church, with government officials boasting about record-breaking attendance figures. This spectacle exemplifies how modernist structures replace supernatural faith with emotional pageantry.
US Government and Conciliar Sect Collude on Religious Worker Visas, Neglecting Divine Law
Catholic News Agency reports on January 14, 2026 that the U.S. Department of Homeland Security under Secretary Kristi Noem will implement a rule easing visa requirements for foreign religious workers. The measure eliminates the one-year foreign residency requirement for R-1 visa holders who reach their five-year limit before obtaining green cards. “Archbishop” Paul Coakley and “Bishop” Brendan Cahill of the United States Conference of Catholic “Bishops” (USCCB) praised the move, claiming it will “minimize disruptions to cherished ministries” while continuing to push Congress for the Religious Workforce Protection Act. The report notes Secretary of State Marco Rubio’s earlier promises to create a “standalone process” for religious visas without denominational preference. This bureaucratic “solution” emerges after multiple dioceses faced priest shortages due to visa backlogs exacerbated under the Biden administration.
Therapeutic Modernism Masquerading as Catholic Response to Tragedy
Catholic News Agency reports on Andrew Cozzens’ January 13, 2026 presentation at St. John the Baptist Church in Minnesota, following the Annunciation Catholic Church shooting that killed two children. The “bishop” emphasized emotional processing through prayer while avoiding any substantive Catholic teaching on sin, judgment, or the social reign of Christ the King. The talk exemplifies how conciliar church leaders replace depositum fidei (the deposit of faith) with therapeutic psychologism when confronting evil.
