Pope Leo’s latest remarks equating abortion with the death penalty and immigration policy have been condemned as a dangerous return to Cardinal Bernardin’s seamless garment theology. Critics, including Archbishop Vigano, warned that this approach muddles Church teaching and undermines bishops confronting pro-abortion politicians.
Panelists also criticized the Vatican for promoting Arnold Schwarzenegger’s climate activism and awkwardly blessing an Ice Cube, calling it part of a broader agenda that links depopulation goals to abortion and LGBT ideology.
Despite these controversies, moments of hope have emerged. Notably, there is a major Vatican initiative to ban surrogacy, alongside a 25,000-strong March for Jesus in Ireland. These developments offer signs that the Church’s mission of truth and witness endures despite confusion stemming from Rome.
