The Pope’s True Loyalty Is To Globalism, Not Christianity

April 24, 2026 22 Comments

They used to call it the “new world order” – A partially public and partially covert agenda to dismantle western civilization. Its purpose is to upend the global financial system, destroy liberty minded movements and eventually erase nations and borders to produce a single communist-like central government ruled by the elitist class.

Today, there are many names for this “beast system”. Some call it the “multipolar world order” even though it would not actually be multipolar. Others call it the “Great Reset”. But the NWO concept that has been promoted most in our post-pandemic discourse is the idea of “Multiculturalism”.

Multiculturalism has always been in the background, at least since the Obama years. It was right under the surface, waiting to be used as a vehicle to move the globalist vision forward. The American people have been prepped for it for generations. The Europeans are currently suffocating in it and it might be too late for them.

The strategy seems rather simple but it is actually a complex effort relying on numerous moving parts synchronized to maximum effect. The most important mechanism is narrative and social influence; the public has to be taught to accept multiculturalism as an inevitability. This brings us to the modern church and its abandonment of western values.

The Vatican’s Shift Into Multiculturalism

In recent news, Pope Leo XIV triggered widespread debate among conservatives when he offered up a thinly veiled attack on the Trump Administration, calling US strikes on Iran’s infrastructure akin to “war crimes”. Interestingly, Leo refused to condemn the wholesale slaughter of protesters by the Iranian regime until this week, likely due to pressure from conservative critics calling out the hypocrisy.

The Pope has been an avid critic not just of Trump, but conservative anti-immigration movements in general. In December of 2025 he argued:

I know that in Europe there are, many times, fears that are present, but oftentimes generated by people who are against immigration and trying to keep out people who may be from another country, another religion, another race. And in that sense, I would say we all need to work together…”

This runs parallel to Leo’s statements in July of 2025, when he asserted that:

The Church, like a mother, accompanies those who are walking. Where the world sees threats, she sees children; where walls are built, she builds bridges… She knows that in every rejected migrant, it is Christ himself who knocks at the door of the community.”

The treatment of immigrants as almost “divine” is a bizarre byproduct of the multicultural religion. This idea has been presented by several popes in recent decades, comparing refugees and illegal immigrants to the Holy Family traveling to Egypt to escape King Herod. In reality, Mary and Joseph were Roman subjects and merely traveled from one part of the Roman Empire to another. They were not “immigrants”, illegal or otherwise.

Keep in mind, the Pope lives within a secure compound protected by two miles of walls standing 40 feet high. The Vatican is one of the most restricted pieces of ground on the planet. Like most globalist elites, he never has to deal with the consequences of the mass immigration policies he supports.

For instance, the Vatican has refused to comment on the rising tide of crime and violence (including rape gangs) caused by mass immigration, specifically from Muslim countries. Nor has he commented on Islamic communities enforcing Sharia Law in Europe in defiance of integration.

In fact, Pope Leo pretends as if these problems simply don’t exist and that the millions of people opposed to third world migration are acting out of bigotry rather than a rational concern for the safety of their families and their culture.

And make no mistake, the Catholic Church has played an integral role in the spread of mass immigration. Under Joe Biden, the Catholic Church enjoyed over $200 million in direct grants for helping bring hundreds of thousands of migrants to the US. The U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB) was responsible for settling around 18% of all “refugees” and asylum seekers entering the US from 2021 to 2024.

The EU’s Asylum, Migration and Integration Fund (AMIF) has budgeted over $10 billion from 2021 to 2027 for organizations helping to settle millions of migrants in Europe, and a large portion of that budget goes to Catholic-based NGOs.

To many Christians the Pope still represents a central figure of influence despite the Vatican’s clear shift to the political left over the past several decades and its increasing abandonment of traditionalism. To non-Catholics (and wise Catholics), the office of the Pope is viewed as a Trojan Horse designed to destroy Christianity and the west from within.

The Vatican has grown into a purveyor of the progressive movement since the Vatican II reforms in the 1960s. These reforms including a focus on “interfaith relations” (universal religion) and a policy of detaching the church from its role as a pillar of western civilization. Today, 47% of Catholics vote Democrat despite the fact that woke ideology directly violates many of the most sacred Christian principles.

The Church’s interest in Muslim immigration spiked in 2010 under Pope Benedict XVI and they have been deeply involved with mass migration programs ever since, often in coordination with leftist politicians.

The Alliance Between The Vatican And The Luciferian Elites

Nothing woke up the masses more, in my opinion, than the nightmare of the Covid pandemic. During this crisis the globalists proudly proclaimed their intentions to lock down the world, enforce perpetual vaccine mandates, establish a medical tyranny and fast-track every NWO program imaginable.

One such program was the “Council For Inclusive Capitalism”, which I believe was the intended foundation for a global government; the top of the pyramid. The project was announced as a partnership between globalist controlled corporations, leftist NGOs, climate organizations, the Rothschild Family and, of course, the Vatican.

The Vatican’s mission within the council seemed to revolve around promoting socialism as “Christian adjacent” (This is a lie – Christianity encourages independent and voluntary charity, not forced charity through government taxation or atheistic collectivism). They were also tasked with forming a platform for a “universal religion”, or a union of religions.

The CIC took advantage of the hysteria surrounding the pandemic to advance the multicultural agenda as well as ESG (a program meant to use corporations to enforce woke ideology through social and financial influence). The project ultimately failed when the covid narrative fell apart.

The Council has since gone underground.  However, in 2026 the Vatican Bank approved the appointment of François Pauly, a former Rothschild director, to lead its Board of Superintendence.  The CIC is undeniable proof that the Vatican and associated leaders are intertwined with the luciferian elites. It is no longer a conspiracy “theory”, but a confirmed fact.

The Crusaders Were Right, The Globalist Pope Is Wrong

In 1095 AD at the Council of Clermont in France, Pope Urban II gave a speech on the relentless invasion of the Ottoman Turks which was threatening to destroy Europe and the last vestiges of western civilization. He appealed to Christian men to stand and fight, to stop the erasure of Christendom. For 300 years the Muslims had cut into the heart of the Holy Roman Empire, migrating and conquering as they went.

By the time of Urban’s call to arms, the Islamic caliphates had taken over 60% of all Christian lands and were on the doorstep of Western Europe.

Before this speech it was widely believed that Christians would not organize or fight. The success of Urban’s plea for action shocked the Pope himself. Thus began the First Crusade to save the west. In the end, the Muslims were pushed out of Europe, back to the Arab lands. Without the crusades we would still be living in the dark ages of a Muslim theocracy.

Nothing has changed since then in terms of the conflict. The western world is still completely incompatible with Islam. What has changed, rather, is the circumstances and the players. Today, the Vatican is a multicultural monstrosity working with people who, more than anything, want open borders, the dismantling of the west and the elimination of Christianity.

They clearly see Islamic immigration (and third world immigration from socialist nations) as a valuable weapon for cleaving the US and Europe. As I noted in my recent article “The US Separation From And NATO Is Long Overdue”, European globalists have used mass immigration to implant a foreign army to subdue and control the native population. It is a tactic as old as time – Political leadership using subsidized foreign hordes as a way to control their own rebellious citizens.

This is why they have ignored every reasonable call by the populace for reforms and deportations. This is why they ignore the rape gangs, the murders, the terrorism. They WANT these things to happen. That’s why they let the barbarians inside the gates in the first place. The Vatican and the Pope are a part of this agenda. As an institution, the Papacy was tasked with protecting the western world. If the Vatican is casting aside this sacred duty, then it no longer represents Christianity.

    To begin I will state that I’m not Catholic and have no ties to the Pope. I’m Russian Orthodox, but that also has become complicated.

    In 2007, the ROCOR churches that are a continuation of the true Christian church dating back to Christ himself, were united with the Moscow Patriarch (MP). I and many other US born people, whose families were fortunate to leave the Soviet Union and Manchuria from the 20s to the 50s, suddenly became reunited with the MP. To go along with the MP is uniting with a church that was established for political purposes by Bishop Sergius under Stalin. This did not sit well with me and many others who for decades grew up in our familiar churches only to have them change hands. Even one SF Orthodox church that was founded my great grandfather, who managed to escape the communist horror of Russia and Manchuria, is now part of the MP.

    One must be very careful of the all inclusive religion. I came up with a saying some years ago. If your religion is popular you are doing it wrong. Christ wasn’t popular at one point and was sentenced to death by a jury of his peers. So too the true church of Christ will not be popular among those of the world. It is also important to note that true Christianity sees no color or race. All people are equal in the eyes of God. But nothing is by force. God gave us free will. Pride and arrogance are soul destroying traits.

    It may be correctly stated that the Catholic church is on a quest for power and the (true) Orthodox church has always preserved the truth. As we know, the truth often hurts and it’s a difficult road, but it’s the truth.

    I agree there are many factors involved to destroy traditional Christian values. What’s ironic is all the positive human virtues touted by the elites such as kindness, anti war, and so on are all Christian values. While the Western churches say to embrace the LGBT community, the proper Christian teaching is to hate the sin but not the person committing the sin. The LGBT (and other similar social problems) are to be treated like a disease rather than celebrating that lifestyle that is so prevalent and in everyone’s face today. Fasting and repentance is difficult and contrary to what humanity wants but all is possible with God.

      God’s commandments is to hate evil; and he tells us what is evil in His Word. Thanks for your thoughtful analysis.

  • Jay April 24, 2026 at 10:11 am

    Yes, the Pope is Catholic. He is not Christian. He wants the world to worship the Pope, not Jesus Christ. He softens his real motives by telling people to worship Mary as their mother and as a way to God, even though the Bible specifically says “though shalt worship The Lord thy God and Him only shalt thou serve.” The Bible says that man can only come to God through Jesus Christ, not Mary. The Pope claims that he can forgive sins instead of Jesus Christ. There was no Pope until around 350 AD, long after the New Testament and early church history was written. Catholicism murdered more Christians in its attempts to stamp out early underground Christianity than Communism and Islam combined. Tyndale was burned at the stake by Roman Catholicism because he attempted to publish the Bible for the common man to read and had a friend not warned Martin Luther, they would have burned him at the stake too. Fortunately he escaped. And no, Peter was not the first Pope. Peter came long before Roman Catholicism and the worship of Mary. The Pope and Roman Catholicism has always kept its slaves from reading the Bible for themselves because they want power and control over the ignorant and unknowing masses.

    • Naomi King April 25, 2026 at 12:20 am

      The Popes want to be rulers of the world and with a one world religion they believe they can achieve that.

    • trainman6 April 25, 2026 at 5:43 am

      you are right in every point you raised, you are among the few that can see the falsehood of Catholicism.

  • Jean Hodge April 24, 2026 at 11:23 am

    Incredible how people just casually include Catholicism in with Christianity. Peter was of course the apostle to the saved Jews, yet the Catholics claim him! (As Paul said in Gal.2:7 “…the gospel of the uncircumcision was committed unto me, as the gospel of the circumcision was unto Peter;”) Also people don’t understand Jesus eternal Son of God the Father, came in the flesh (by the Holy Ghost) to Mary to pay the sin debt of mortal man! Mary was a vessel! You will get the truth from the KJV. Other versions change Is.7:14 from the correct “a virgin shall conceive” to a young woman. God very God came in the flesh to pay your sins. “Catholicism” enslaves people to phony rituals & lead people AWAY from the gospel of Grace: coming to Jesus personally in prayer to receive the Free Gift of eternal life. Obedience to a slave religion gains you nothing!!

  • RAFO April 24, 2026 at 11:58 am

    My opinion… Look for this Pope to one day come out of the Gnostic closet absolutely denying the deity of Christ. Yes, he will say Jesus was a great prophet, but nothing more. The Pope will deny the virgin birth and every thing else that points to Christ being part of the Godhead.

    Out of the three major monotheistic religions in the world (Christianity, Judaism and Islam), Christianity is the only one which deifies Jesus. This is a problem for those that would bring us into a one-world religious system. Look for this Pope to demote Jesus so that we are all simpatico. Again, my opinion.

  • Roundball Shaman April 24, 2026 at 12:15 pm

    “… “new world order”… dismantle western civilization… destroy liberty minded… erase nations and borders to produce a single communist-like central government ruled by the elitist class… the “Great Reset”… “Multiculturalism”.
    .
    “Multiculturalism?” No, it’s more like MONO-culturalism. One Way (!) and one way only. No deviations. No sovereignty. No powers for the People and all power to the State and it’s sister organizations (like religion).
    .
    And we already know that The Great Reset is anything but that. It is more The Great Regret.
    .
    The Roman Catholic religion – like most all religions – is all about controlling the thoughts and beliefs of its adherents. No ‘Thinkers’ need apply.
    .
    And a key cornerstone of the Catholics is of course the Pope figure. You know.. that Father-figure (who is called the Holy Father) that sits just below The Big Guy Himself with You way down there. That works for Catholics. Not so much for everyone else.
    .
    And someone this did not work for at all was reformer Martin Luther. Luther hated the hierarchy and subordination of the People to a Pope figure. Instead, he preached the doctrine that came to be know as the Priesthood of All Believers. In short, everyone who has true faith (in Their definition of such) is a ‘Priest’. None of this phony superior Priest/Pope/Father-Figure hierarchy. Needless to say, that did not make Luther or the other Reformers very popular among Pope-Lovers.
    .
    But having a Pope is useful for the Dark State and the furthering of the Dark State Agenda. When you have a Pope spewing Globalist or Communist or Marxist or DEI or Woke ideology – you automatically are commanding and herding all the World’s Catholics to go along with such nonsense. So the Pope is a useful functionary of the Dark Ones.
    .
    The current Pope does have one redeeming value, however. He is the first Pope who is Chicago White Sox fan. And given that… it might cause one to overlook all the other bad stuff going on at the Vatican.
    .
    The People in our World just want to live our lives and be left alone. The Dark Ones and those like the Pope do not agree with that at all. They want our bodies and minds and souls.
    .
    But the wise among us say… ‘So sorry. I’M NOT FOR SALE’.

    But please tell me… what time are the Sox on today?…

  • Jerome April 24, 2026 at 1:52 pm

    Roman Catholicism was never Christian to begin with. The old empire changed over to just another form of their paganism, and made it to look like Christianity, but never really was.
    A priest himself that I became very good friends with said, Roman Catholicism is not Christian.

  • Wayne April 24, 2026 at 3:37 pm

    The Vatican (Nation state) and the pope’s political views ie: Pope Leo who was groomed by Pope Francis does not represent the veiws of the catechism of the Catholic Church. It is important to difference the between the two. There are many of us Catholics recognize how some of the prelates in the Church of been captured by the Globalist and are resisting this. (please remember over the years attracted many saints and social reformers and there have excellent popes and bad popes, but the teachings of the church has survived.

  • Jay April 24, 2026 at 5:14 pm

    Some people get catechism mixed up with dogmatism as their pet peeves.

    Classic Cloward Piven Strategy by the commies. They use the same playbook, different players. The vatican is probably the biggest blasphemy in the world – masquerading as the closest disciples of god when they are actually demons from hell.

    The Creator’s first lesson for humans: “It is not good for man to be alone”.
    Creator’s second lesson: “be fruitful and multiply”.
    Rome’s doctrine: the leaders of Christianity will be defrocked immediately if they marry. They will be just relocated if they have sex outside of marriage. However they must never have any heirs as all belongs to the Magisterium.
    Magisterium: magicians that keep goats and Tares and foolish virgins deceived and loving it.
    Pope: a puppet like a president
    Protestant clergy: half baked catholics that similarly pander to women and emasculate the men

    No man, government, religion, philosophy, etc. can stop what is occurring around
    the world. And that goes for churches that have fashioned their organizations
    (denominations) after mans own design, not Gods Pattern for His Church
    and Families.

    Man’s churches are failing as we enter the end of days of which we have been
    forewarned. Man’s Churches have assumed to themselves priesthoods and authority (as they supposed) thereby dividing believers one against another. They also assumed responsibilities which God ordained and appointed for Men and Women (The Family) not men’s churches. Do you not know, that for the first 2 centuries believers did not “go to what we call church”?

    What is God’s Church? It’s Jesus Christ and Born Again Believers having the indwelling of the Holy Spirit our True Guide, our True Teacher, our True Comforter along with God’s Word and the Testimony of His Creation. They are the living breathing Church Of God, adopted Sons and Daughters of God, destined to be with Him throughout eternity.

    P.S. Dear Reader do you desire to know who is the Prince of this world and his followers? First read the Ten Commandments Thou shalt not as given in your Bible. Then read beginning with the 10th Commandment, saying Thou Shalt and you will know the god of this world and those who follow him. Think about it.

  • Some Dumb Guy April 25, 2026 at 7:43 am

    So I wonder then are our religious institutions the next to fall soon, succumbing to infiltration from within? Or restructured in similar fashion as China where religion is permitted but heavily regulated by the state. That’s only to prop it up until the next generation no longer needs it. Chinese kids can’t even participate in religious exercise until they are 18 if I’m not mistaken. The are rather educated in atheism and to look to the CCP for guidance, not religion.

    Thank you Brandon Smith for attaining a significant platform through diligence and excellence AND THEN utilizing your platform to speak well researched and structured expository editorial on important deceptions.
    Multiculturalism AND the engine behind it are immeasurably salient in our time!
    You are very courageous and cogent. You will be slyly opposed.
    May the Living Word defend you.

    It is very interesting to see the sexual orientation of the Catholic priests. I would suspect the number of heterosexual men are few and far between. We know, based on the amount of court cases, of the number of pedophiles that operate under the protection of the priesthood. When a problem is discovered, they move the priest and bully the victim and parents into “forgiving” the offending priest. The priesthood claims they are operating as Christ who would forgive the priest. The offender is then transferred from church to church or monastic community as penance.
    .
    Next come the homosexuals. They are cloistered and operate in an unseen community behind the walls of the church. Why do you think their is a prohibition to marriage to a female? The church is a refuge. They live and die out of the view of the parishioners. Protected spaces where you cannot travel. Hidden from view.
    .
    The mainstream protestant churches are not any better. They are big businesses who ply their trade for money and power. They couch their ministrations as Christ like, but in reality it is for money and power. They are Christ’s tax collectors and they control the purse strings.
    .
    Many people wonder why churches are failing and turning from God. Could it be the churches themselves that are creating the problem?
    .
    Religion is just a form of controlling people. My eyes were opened when I saw how Priests and Ministers could coerce people into doing their bidding just by using the threat of God. They want you to believe you are not to judge. You are taught to be forgiving. You are taught justice is administered by God and nor man. You are taught to be a slave.

  • Marilynne L. Mellander April 27, 2026 at 10:22 am

    Why does MSM give so much air time to the Pope and his opinions? What about the opinions of real Bible believing Christians such as John McArthur ( now sadly deceased) who exposed the Catholic cult for what it really was, the religion of anti Christ deceiving millions into Hell..19th century British theologian Charles Haddon Spurgeon warned about the dangers or Romanism creeping back in to Great Britain in the late 19th century with it’s idolatry and false gospel

  • Jonathan N April 30, 2026 at 6:29 am

    This pope has the same globalist agenda as the last one, he’s just attempting – but often failing – to make it less obvious.
