St. Francis of Assisi creating the first Nativity scene in Greccio with a miraculous appearance of the infant Jesus during Mass.

St. Francis’ Nativity Scene: Traditional Piety Versus Modern Distortions

Catholic News Agency portal (December 21, 2025) recounts St. Francis of Assisi’s creation of the first Nativity scene in Greccio, Italy in 1223. The article describes how Francis “desired to ‘re-present the birth of that Child in Bethlehem'” after being inspired by his Holy Land pilgrimage, with Lord Giovanni Velita preparing a cave with live animals and manger. It claims eyewitnesses saw “a real infant appear in the empty manger” during Mass, followed by miraculous healings through contact with the hay. The piece notes antipope Bergoglio’s 2019 visit to Greccio where he signed Admirabile Signum, emphasizing how “all who were present” experienced “new and indescribable joy” at Francis’ Nativity. The article concludes by mentioning annual reenactments at Greccio now in their 50th year. This sentimentalized narrative masks profound theological dangers beneath its pious veneer.

The Hollow “Peace” of Bethlehem’s Betrayers

The Vatican News portal (December 20, 2025) publishes a Christmas message by Ibrahim Faltas, a Franciscan friar of the Custody of the Holy Land, lamenting violence in Gaza while promoting a naturalistic “peace” divorced from the Kingship of Christ. The text decries suffering yet omits the necessity of societal conversion to Christ the King, reducing the Incarnation to a vague humanitarian symbol.

Bloodshed Without Redemption: The Futility of Secular Retaliation in Syria

The VaticanNews portal (December 20, 2025) reports U.S. and Jordanian airstrikes against Islamic State targets in Syria, framed as retaliation for the December 13 ambush near Palmyra that killed two U.S. soldiers and a civilian interpreter. Over 70 sites were struck using “more than 100 precision munitions,” with Jordan’s air force participating to “prevent extremist groups from threatening regional security.” Syria’s cooperation with the U.S.-led coalition is highlighted, alongside its pledge to combat ISIS. U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth declared the operation “a declaration of vengeance,” not war. The article omits any moral or theological reflection, reducing the conflict to geopolitical maneuvering. **This report exemplifies the bankruptcy of modernist naturalism, divorcing human action from divine law.**
