Leo XIV Signs New Defense of Religious Pluralism… But What Happened to Catholicism?
[remnantnewspaper] By: Robert Morrison
In a new document marking sixty years of Nostra Aetate, Leo XIV and three Vatican dicasteries defend interreligious dialogue, religious pluralism, and a “fraternal society capable of accepting differences.” But hold on... Can Catholicism affirm that Christ is the Way, the Truth, and the Life while simultaneously treating religious pluralism as a positive goal? The Vatican’s own language increasingly makes the theological problem with Vatican II impossible to ignore.
On September 16, Leo XIV added his signature to a document produced by the Dicasteries for the Doctrine of the Faith, for the Promotion of Christian Unity, and for Interreligious Dialogue: “A Journey of Hope: Sixty Years of Interreligious Dialogue and Fraternity in the Light of the Conciliar Declaration Nostra Aetate.” The sixty-paragraph document outlines the history of Vatican II’s Nostra Aetate and …

Hopkins, Minnesota. Fr. Brent receives wisdom from our Lord while in transubstanciation, in which Jesus let Fr. Brent know how much Blood He pours for the salvation of souls, the weight of so much of His Divine Blood is tremendous, Fr. Brent had trouble lifting the coup. The title of this video is misleading, despite there was no physical change from bread or wine into Flesh and Blood, IT was a miracle , as it is His Flesh and Blood, such miracle happens EVERY DAY AT EVERY MASS, yet people don’t believe. Please pray for Fr. Brent to really be holy. Thanks, God bless.

Pope Leo Promotes Synodality Bishop Who Has ‘Courage To Make A Different Church’
Pope Leo XIV appointed a synodality enthusiast who accepts as “open questions” the possibilities of Holy Communion for unrepented active homosexuals and the “ordination” of women to the diaconate.
The Vatican announcement was issued Monday that Bishop Pedro Luis Fuentes Valencia, C.P., was named Military Ordinary for Bolivia, ending four years in which the Passionist prelate had governed the same jurisdiction only as apostolic administrator while remaining auxiliary bishop of La Paz.
The Holy See Press Office identified him as titular bishop of Temuniana and noted that he had represented the Bolivian Episcopal Conference at the Synod of Bishops in Rome in 2023 and 2024.
Reporting from the Paul VI Hall in October 2023, the Bolivian bishops’ conference quoted him describing the opening retreat with discussion themes including “losing fear, (and) having the courage to make a different Church.”

Breaking: Pope Leo's Vatican asks Catholics to 'esteem' other faiths - LifeSite
The Vatican has asked Catholics to 'esteem' other faiths in its latest document on interreligious dialogue and 'fraternity.'
Wed Sep 16, 2026 - 9:08 am EDT
(LifeSiteNews) —The Vatican has asked Catholics to ‘esteem’ other faiths in its latest document on interreligious dialogue and “fraternity.”
The document, signed by Cardinal Víctor Manuel Fernández, Prefect of the Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith (DDF); Cardinal Kurt Koch, Prefect of the Dicastery for Promoting Christian Unity; and Cardinal George Jacob Koovakad, Prefect of the Dicastery for Interreligious Dialogue, appeared this morning.
Entitled “A Journey of Hope: Sixty Years of Interreligious Dialogue and Fraternity in the Light of the Conciliar Declaration Nostra Aetate, the work discourages “proselytism,” that is, attempts to convert people of other religions.
“The defensive entrenchment in one’s own position and the view that proselytism is …

Leo XIV. continues Abu Dhabi Document: False religions become “expressions of God’s will”.
On September 16, three Vatican Dicasteries - Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith, Dicastery for Promoting Christian Unity, and Dicastery for Interreligious Dialogue - published the document The Path of Hope: A Note on the 60th Anniversary of Nostra Aetate. Leo XIV. approved the text on June 22.
Religions may become expressions of God's will
§58 contains perhaps the document’s most troubling claim: The “religions are called to transform the world and society so that they may become fraternal expressions of God’s will”.
Vatican II “Changed” Church’s understanding
The document admits in §1 that Vatican II’ declaration Nostra Aetate “marked a profound change in the Church’s understanding and expression of her relationship with followers of other religions”.
“Sacred” texts of the false religions
§32 claims that there is a universal criterion of discernment that can be found in the “sacred texts” …

Toronto Archdiocese cracks down on the traditional Latin Masses.
Cardinal Francis Leo of Toronto, Canada, is implementing 'Traditionis Custodes', effective next Sunday.
VoxCantor.blogspot.com published a terrifying detail: One Sunday per month, the Novus Ordo must be said.
At the parish St. Vincent, the old high altar will be used. At the parish Holy Family the Novus Ordo will be presided over with the back to God facing the people.
And: No other sacraments are permitted according to the 1962 usage.
There are four major parish churches in the Archdiocese of Toronto celebrating the Roman rite:
- St. Lawrence the Martyr Parish — Scarborough
- St. Patrick’s Parish — Schomberg
- Holy Family Parish — Toronto
- St. Vincent de Paul Parish — Toronto
The Masses at Schomberg and Scarborough have existed for over 40 years.
All four parishes have sufficient Novus Ordo Eucharists in various languages.
The numbers are interesting, too. At these four Masses and two celebrated by the Priestly Fraternity …

A two-metre-high, blood-red sculpture of Jesus Christ holding two Uzi submachine guns is on display at L’Aérosol in Marseille. The blasphemy was made by French provocateur James Colomina. It was initially placed outside the venue before being moved indoors. Colomina claims the armed Christ is an anti-violence statement.

Archdiocese of Chicago Settles 9 Sex Abuse Claims, Paying $5.4M
The Archdiocese of Chicago recently settled out of court with nine people who accused eight Chicago-area priests of sexually abusing them decades ago.
The settlements, totaling $5.4 million, were all reached in the last two weeks, according to the attorneys representing the victims.
“Nobody’s paying that kind of money for something that didn’t happen,” said Marc Pearlman, one of the victim’s attorneys, during a Thursday news conference announcing the settlements. “This is validation that it happened.”
The allegations date as far back as the early 1970s and as recently as the late 1990s. The victims’ ages at the time of the abuse ranged from 6 to 14 years old.

Bishop Schneider: Document Against Co-Redemptrix Will One Day Be Cancelled
Synodality is a “very cunning code word to undermine Catholic doctrine”, Bishop Athanasius Schneider told AdVaticanum on September 10.
He believes the vagueness of the word is deliberate, a means of gradually adapting Catholic doctrine, morality and ecclesial structures to Protestantism and contemporary attitudes toward sexuality.
Monsignor Schneider calls synodality the height of the modernist movement, leading toward relativism. He adds that this openness has one notable exception: the traditional Latin Mass.
“This document will be cancelled”
Responding to the document Mater Populi Fidelis against the Marian titles Co-Redemptrix and Mediatrix of All Graces, Bishop Schneider argues that the Church cannot cancel language found in missals and used by popes, saints and Doctors of the Church.
He believes the document, not the titles, will eventually disappear: “I think, in the future, this document will be cancelled.” …

Leo’s Pontifical Academy for Life: Catholics Can Morally Assent to “Imperfect Laws” Allowing Assisted Suicide
Archbishop Renzo Pegoraro heads the Pontifical Academy for Life. Leo appointed him president barely three weeks after his election in May 2025, despite Pegoraro’s already public record of treating contraception and assisted suicide as morally negotiable under certain circumstances. Leo then promoted him again in March 2026, making him a bishop with the personal title of archbishop.
So this one belongs directly at Leo’s door.
On September 6, Avvenire asked Pegoraro about assisted-suicide legislation in Italy.
Pegoraro said Catholics might face an “imperfect law” permitting assisted suicide “to which it would nevertheless be moral to give one’s assent,” on the theory that still worse legislation might otherwise pass.
That is an astonishing thing for the president of the Pontifical Academy for Life to say.
Catholic moral theology already has a category for dealing with evil laws. …

"God Has Become Bread" - Leo XIV Reverses Subject and Object
“God has become bread” (Dio che si è fatto pane), Leo XIV said on September 5 during an audience with the Perpetual Adorers of the Blessed Sacrament.
Taken literally, the words suggest the heresy of impanation: the divine Word united to bread that remains bread, somewhat analogously to the Incarnation.
Catholic doctrine is transubstantiation. After consecration, the substance of bread no longer remains. It is not God who becomes bread, but bread that becomes Christ’s Body.
The favorable interpretation is that Leo XIV is using devotional or metaphorical language.
Benedict XVI used similar language. In 2008, he said that Christ si è fatto pane (“became bread”), and in 2005 spoke of the Host nella quale Gesù per noi si è fatto pane (“in which Jesus became bread for us”).
