The Glory That Once Was is the Glory That Will be Restored

Nearly two millennia of French Catholic history processed before a very pleased Robert Francis Prevost/Leo XIV on Friday evening, September 25, 2026 as cast of hundreds, if not thousands, of French Catholics portrayed saints such as Saints Mary Magdaelene and her brother Lazarus, Denis, Remigius, Genevieve, Martin of Tours, Joan of Arc, Saint Louis IX, Vincent de Paul, Louise de Marillac, Jean-Marie Vianney, Therese of Lisieux, and others in the Stade de France in a spectacle that must be seen to be fully appreciated: Saints Come to Life with the Pope: Joan of Arc Arrives on Horseback at the Vigil Alongside Louis IX.

A news report captured only a small part of the epic performance’s magnificent grandeur:

What happened next must rank among the more unusual spectacles ever to have occupied the Stade de France pitch. A boat crossed the arena, horses appeared and Joan of Arc rode into view as, one after another, figures from the history of Christianity in France began to emerge. The stadium that had felt like a concert venue only a short time earlier was suddenly playing host to several centuries of French Catholic history.

Mary Magdalene and Lazarus evoked the earliest Christian traditions of France, while later figures included Martin of Tours, Joan of Arc, Vincent de Paul, Louise de Marillac, Thérèse of Lisieux and Charles de Foucauld. Different centuries and very different ways of living the faith were brought together on the same enormous stage.

An army of French saints is not something you see every day, particularly when several of them appear to have commandeered a national sports stadium, but beneath all the spectacle was a powerful reminder of just how much good has been accumulated across centuries of Catholic life in France. These were mystics and missionaries, priests and religious, people who cared for the poor and sick, taught, evangelized and served the communities around them.

And the people watching were about to be told that this history now belonged to them. (Highlights from Leo's Vigil with 80,000 young people.)

The march of French saints was rightly triumphalist as there remains a strong, militant and very vocal anticlerical secular current within French society. This rotten heritage of the bloodthirsty, anti-Theistic French Revolution has taken deep root within the so-called “intelligentsia” within France, and “intelligentsia” that has until recently bent to every whim of the Mohammedans who have overrun parts of France.

Ah, but the days are coming when contracepting and aborting intelligentsia class as well as the artistes and bureaucratic apparatchiks will be replaced by the rising tide of Mohammedan Marxists in France and is they who are destined to clash with believing French Catholics as the only two groups in France who are having children are traditionally minded Catholics and the Mohammedans.

However, as evident as it was that the march of French saints please “Pope Leo XIV,” he wants nothing at all to do with any though of a restoration of the Catholic past, which included nearly two millennia of seeking converts to the Catholic Church, outside of which there is no salvation and without which there can be no true social order within nations nor an enduring peace among them.

Consider what Robert Francis Prevost/Leo XIV said to a young questioner about how to convince non-Catholic friends to convert after the march of saints had taken place:

My name is Chloé. I am 25 years old, and I am finishing my studies in pharmacology. I am part of a group of young Catholics from working-class neighborhoods in the Île-de-France region called La Cité Céleste. Among other things, we organize events such as evenings of adoration and worship, which bring together many young people from the neighborhood who are eager to live out and share their faith with others. I am also active in my parish, working in particular with high school students. Through these various commitments, I am passionate about using my energy and skills to serve others, creating connections between faith, youth and the realities of daily life in our neighborhoods.

As Saint Paul says, “For me, to live is Christ.” However, the society in which we live is founded on different principles and sometimes even seems to have no regard for the question of God. We wish to proclaim Christ to those around us with strength and perseverance, but also with respect and sensitivity. How can we combine our strong missionary zeal with authentic fraternity toward those who do not share our faith? 

The Holy Father’s Response

Dear friends, the first thing I would like to say is very simple: thank you. Thanks be to God, and to you — thank you for your courage, thank you for your presence, thank you for your faith. You are the saints of France!

Thank you, Chloe, for your question.  The phrase from Saint Paul that you quoted is not just a statement. It is truly the essence of his life. In these few but decisive words, he utters a prayer of praise, an act of faith, and he points to the path of holiness that led to martyrdom. “For me, to live is Christ” (cf. Phil 1:21). By repeating this declaration of love, we seek to share in the Apostle’s experience. He testifies that God was never absent from his life. God came to meet him, calling him to himself, thereby transforming him from within, and sending him out into the world.

We are all part of this spiritual journey, even today. It is true, as you say, that the society in which we live seems indifferent to God. But the Lord is not indifferent to us! This is what matters, and what always gives us hope. The fact that many are indifferent to the question of God is, indeed, a problem, but so too is the fact that many are indifferent to the question of humanity. Sadly, how many people show no concern for their neighbors, lead selfish lives, look down on the poor while squandering their wealth on trivial things. How many reject the weak and the infirm, thinking that a person’s worth lies solely in what they produce. Consider your commitment in the working-class neighborhoods of Île-de-France, in La Cité Céleste: it is there, in the concrete realities of daily life, and sometimes in the midst of difficulties, that your faith becomes a vibrant witness to hope.

Humanity goes astray when it claims that God is dead. Without God, we have no salvation and we lose the meaning of our existence, which is reduced to a dead end or to nothingness. Conversely, those who say, “For me, to live is Christ!” experience the exact opposite. Indeed, in Christ we know that God is never indifferent to humanity! Through Jesus, crucified and risen, God gives his own life so that we may live. The way to proclaim Christ courageously yet respectfully is to proclaim him as the Gospel of salvation, as the word of truth and life. The Gospel is good news for all, a liberating message, and a guide for new life.

The Gospel of Jesus does not lead to conflict, but always invites us to forgive. While shedding light on the drama of history, it fosters fraternal concern. Encountering Christ opens the way to dialogue and prepares us for his peace, for it offers every man and woman the greatest promise, the one that fulfills our every desire, namely the promise of eternal life. (Prayer Vigil with Young People at the “Stade de France” in Saint-Denis, 25 September 2026.)

A Comment:

Au contraire, Faux Papa Leon:

The brother also shall deliver up the brother to death, and the father the son: and the children shall rise up against their parents, and shall put them to death. And you shall be hated by all men for my name's sake: but he that shall persevere unto the end, he shall be saved. And when they shall persecute you in this city, flee into another. Amen I say to you, you shall not finish all the cities of Israel, till the Son of man come. The disciple is not above the master, nor the servant above his lord. It is enough for the disciple that he be as his master, and the servant as his lord. If they have called the goodman of the house Beelzebub, how much more them of his household?

Therefore fear them not. For nothing is covered that shall not be revealed: nor hid, that shall not be known. That which I tell you in the dark, speak ye in the light: and that which you hear in the ear, preach ye upon the housetops. And fear ye not them that kill the body, and are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him that can destroy both soul and body in hell. Are not two sparrows sold for a farthing? and not one of them shall fall on the ground without your Father. But the very hairs of your head are all numbered.

Fear not therefore: better are you than many sparrows. Every one therefore that shall confess me before men, I will also confess him before my Father who is in heaven. But he that shall deny me before men, I will also deny him before my Father who is in heaven. Do not think that I came to send peace upon earth: I came not to send peace, but the sword. For I came to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter in law against her mother in law.

And as a man's enemies shall be they of his own household. He that loveth father or mother more than me, is not worthy of me; and he that loveth son or daughter more than me, is not worthy of me. And he that taketh not up his cross, and followeth me, is not worthy of me. He that findeth his life, shall lose it: and he that shall lose his life for me, shall find it. He that receiveth you, receiveth me: and he that receiveth me, receiveth him that sent me.  (Mt. 10: 21-40)

The commentary in the Challoner Douay-Rheims Bible on verse thirty-five is important to reproduce here as so many worldly Catholics, many of whom are the victims of the conciliar revolution and thus have been robbed of the most basic elements of the sensus Catholicus and have been "catechized" by the "world" and by "worldly" relatives who hate the Faith because they are steeped, whether or not they realize it, in one unrepentant sin after another, come to despise those in their families who want to change their lives and to live for the "higher things" rather than to be immersed in the ways of the world:

"I came to set a man at variance"... Not that this was the end or design of the coming of our Saviour; but that his coming and his doctrine would have this effect, by reason of the obstinate resistance that many would make, and of their persecuting all such as should adhere to him. (Challoner Commentary) 

Catholicism must be in constant conflict with the world, the flesh, and the devil, and it is the duty of all baptized Catholics to perform the Spiritual Works of Mercy, which including instructing the ignorant, although there are, of course, as many different ways to do this as there are Catholics who are intent on praying daily to Our Lady for her to send them the graces to be an instrument in planting the seeds for the conversion of non-Catholics to the true Church. Each situation is different and calls for a different approach given the different temperaments and personalities that a people possess.

Admitting all this, however, it is nevertheless true that, while respect people and treat them with Christian charity, we must never respect false religions, which is precisely what Prevost/Leo told his young questioner to do:

Dear Chloé, dear young people, every person’s religious experience expresses this search for meaning that animates the human soul. In Jesus, the Redeemer of the world, God reveals himself by addressing “men and women as friends” (Dogmatic Constitution on Divine Revelation Dei Verbum, 2). He is the source of living water, light in the darkness. In the joy of faith, let us therefore proclaim together this evening: “for us, to live is Christ!” Together: for us to live is Christ!

Thanks to him, we can combine missionary zeal with the spirit of fraternity toward those who do not believe in God or who belong to other religious traditions. This fraternity is built on listening and mutual respect, and is rooted in the unity of the human family, which throughout history has expressed the religious dimension as a vital characteristic of every people.

Cultivating a fraternal bond with those who do not share our faith thus contributes to the building of society. Furthermore, it is a way practicing faith and charity, for it is impossible to bear witness to Christ without loving those to whom we wish to proclaim him. The meetings among young people from the Mediterranean region that have taken place in recent years are an encouraging sign of this fraternity.

The Christian message, then, is not an obstacle to fraternal coexistence; on the contrary, it promotes it by inviting everyone freely to listen to a message of peace and salvation. Similarly, our mission is not incompatible with respect for other religions, because the Church does not reject parts of them that are true and holy (cf. Declaration on the Relation of the Church with Non-Christian Religions Nostra Aetate, 2). Thank you. (Prayer Vigil with Young People at the “Stade de France” in Saint-Denis, 25 September 2026.)

The Catholic Church believes that there is nothing in false religions that are holy and true as every false religion is a tool of the devil himself to deceive people with apparent truths that are actually whole lies, and Pope Saint Pius X specifically that Modernists believe that all religious experiences have value as they arise from an inner consciousness:

For the Modernist believer, on the contrary, it is an established and certain fact that the reality of the divine does really exist in itself and quite independently of the person who believes in it. If you ask on what foundation this assertion of the believer rests, he answers: In the personal experience of the individual. On this head the Modernists differ from the Rationalists only to fall into the views of the Protestants and pseudo-mystics. The following is their manner of stating the question: In the religious sense one must recognize a kind of intuition of the heart which puts man in immediate contact with the reality of God, and infuses such a persuasion of God’s existence and His action both within and without man as far to exceed any scientific conviction. They assert, therefore, the existence of a real experience, and one of a kind that surpasses all rational experience. If this experience is denied by some, like the Rationalists, they say that this arises from the fact that such persons are unwilling to put themselves in the moral state necessary to produce it. It is this experience which makes the person who acquires it to be properly and truly a believer.

How far this position is removed from that of Catholic teaching! We have already seen how its fallacies have been condemned by the Vatican Council. Later on, we shall see how these errors, combined with those which we have already mentioned, open wide the way to Atheism. Here it is well to note at once that, given this doctrine of experience united with that of symbolism, every religion, even that of paganism, must be held to be true. What is to prevent such experiences from being found in any religion? In fact, that they are so is maintained by not a few. On what grounds can Modernists deny the truth of an experience affirmed by a follower of Islam? Will they claim a monopoly of true experiences for Catholics alone? Indeed, Modernists do not deny, but actually maintain, some confusedly, others frankly, that all religions are true. That they cannot feel otherwise is obvious. For on what ground, according to their theories, could falsity be predicated of any religion whatsoever? Certainly it would be either on account of the falsity of the religious .sense or on account of the falsity of the formula pronounced by the mind. Now the religious sense, although it maybe more perfect or less perfect, is always one and the same; and the intellectual formula, in order to be true, has but to respond to the religious sense and to the believer, whatever be the intellectual capacity of the latter. In the conflict between different religions, the most that Modernists can maintain is that the Catholic has more truth because it is more vivid, and that it deserves with more reason the name of Christian because it corresponds more fully with the origins of Christianity. No one will find it unreasonable that these consequences flow from the premises. But what is most amazing is that there are Catholics and priests, who, We would fain believe, abhor such enormities, and yet act as if they fully approved of them. For they lavish such praise and bestow such public honor on the teachers of these errors as to convey the belief that their admiration is not meant merely for the persons, who are perhaps not devoid of a certain merit, but rather for the sake of the errors which these persons openly profess and which they do all in their power to propagate.

15. There is yet another element in this part of their teaching which is absolutely contrary to Catholic truth. For what is laid down as to experience is also applied with destructive effect to tradition, which has always been maintained by the Catholic Church. Tradition, as understood by the Modernists, is a communication with others of an original experience, through preaching by means of the intellectual formula. To this formula, in addition to its representative value they attribute a species of suggestive efficacy which acts firstly in the believer by stimulating the religious sense, should it happen to have grown sluggish, and by renewing the experience once acquired, and secondly, in those who do not yet believe by awakening in them for the first time the religious sense and producing the experience. In this way is religious experience spread abroad among the nations; and not merely among contemporaries by preaching, but among future generations both by books and by oral transmission from one to another. Sometimes this communication of religious experience takes root and thrives, at other times it withers at once and dies. For the Modernists, to live is a proof of truth, since for them life and truth are one and the same thing. Thus we are once more led to infer that all existing religions are equally true, for otherwise they would not survive. (Pope Saint Pius X, Pascendi Dominici Gregis, September 7, 1907.)

Robert Francis Prevost/Leo XIV is a perfect example of the sort of Modernist described by Pope Saint Pius X one hundred nineteen years ago as he, Prevost/Leo says confusedly that we must be intent on “coexistence” with those who are “different” and “listen” to their beliefs while, at the same time, calling upon Europe to return to its Christian roots, which in his confused mind, means that respect for Christianity and for all other religions, especially Mohammedanism, by the civil authorities.

Prevost/Leo also does not realize that the European unity that existed during the period of Christendom was rent asunder by Martin Luther's revolution against the Divine Plan that Our Lord Himself had instituted to effect man's return to him through His Catholic Church. 

Catholicism alone built Europe from the ashes of paganism and barbarism, something that Pope Leo XIII noted in Immortale Dei, November 1, 1885:

There was once a time when States were governed by the philosophy of the Gospel. Then it was that the power and divine virtue of Christian wisdom had diffused itself throughout the laws, institutions, and morals of the people, permeating all ranks and relations of civil society. Then, too, the religion instituted by Jesus Christ, established firmly in befitting dignity, flourished everywhere, by the favor of princes and the legitimate protection of magistrates; and Church and State were happily united in concord and friendly interchange of good offices. The State, constituted in this wise, bore fruits important beyond all expectation, whose remembrance is still, and always will be, in renown, witnessed to as they are by countless proofs which can never be blotted out or ever obscured by any craft of any enemies. Christian Europe has subdued barbarous nations, and changed them from a savage to a civilized condition, from superstition to true worship. It victoriously rolled back the tide of Mohammedan conquest; retained the headship of civilization; stood forth in the front rank as the leader and teacher of all, in every branch of national culture; bestowed on the world the gift of true and many-sided liberty; and most wisely founded very numerous institutions for the solace of human suffering. And if we inquire how it was able to bring about so altered a condition of things, the answer is -- beyond all question, in large measure, through religion, under whose auspices so many great undertakings were set on foot, through whose aid they were brought to completion. (Pope Leo XIII, Immortale Dei, November 1, 1885.)

Well, the passage of time—and the efforts of many allied forces—have blotted out the memory of the Middle Ages, which are referred to disparagingly by many as “Dark Ages” even though it was during the time of Christendom, that is, the Christ-centered world of Europe, that the modern university system developed after learning had been kept alive in the monasteries, especially in Ireland, following the barbaric invasions in Europe. Great university centers arose in Prague, Paris, Padua, Bologna, Oxford, Krakow and Cambridge, to name just a few. Hospitals, which were staffed by consecrated religious who worked without earthly pay, and other institutions of mercy were established to care, not to kill off, the poor, the unwanted, the diseased and the suffering,

There were, of course, wars and great periods of moral dissolution (meaning corruption) at times in the Middle Ages. Human nature remains wounded. Men must choose to cooperate with the graces sent them to reform their lives lest their fall prey to the temptation to believe that what matters is only their own power and privileges. It was during such periods that God raised up such men as the Cistercian abbot, Saint Bernard of Clairvaux in the Twelfth Century, the 1100s, that is, and Saint Francis of Assisi, Saint Dominic de Guzman and Saint Anthony of Padua (after whom do you think San Bernardino, California, San Francisco, California, The Dominican Republic and San Antonio, Texas, are named after?) to serve as true reformers who preached reform of the souls of human beings, not some kind of theological revolution designed to “liberate” “believers.” (Indeed, as the students in Normangee High School told me, the abbreviation of the Texas highway OSR stands for Old San Antonio Road. Long before the settlers from elsewhere in the United States arrived in Texas, the Franciscan missionaries had been here to evangelize the Indians.)

Why is this important?

Well, this is important as it was during the nine hundred thirty-four years that England was a Catholic nation (from the time of the missionary work of Saint Augustine of Canterbury in 600 AD to King Henry VIII’s break with the Catholic Church to marry his mistress, Anne Boleyn, whom he later had beheaded) that what became the mother country of the United States of America developed her political institutions.

Following the example of Charlemagne on the continent of Europe, King Alfred the Great of Wessex, the most powerful king in England in the Ninth Century, established a system of formal education for the children of the royal court, desiring to translate important works, such as Pope Saint Gregory the Great’s Pastoral Guide, from Latin into English. His administration of justice was as measured as that of Charlemagne before him and Saint Edward Confessor, who was King of England from 1042 to 1066, after him. It was during England’s period of a Catholic nation that the system of common law, which was made by judges who applied the precepts of the Divine Positive Law (those laws revealed positively by God, such as the Ten Commandments, and the precepts of the Sermon on the Mount) and Natural Law to the facts and circumstances of the particular cases before them for their adjudication. English Common Law is still cited by some American jurists to this day and is recognized in Federal law as well in those areas where the Congress has not repealed anything of it by passing a law contradicting a common law decision.

Additionally, of course, it was when England was a Catholic nation that the barons, nobles and bishops convinced King John I, the son of King Henry II, whose dispute with the Archbishop of Canterbury in 1079 caused him to mutter the words (“Will no one rid me of this mettlesome priest”) that resulted in the murder of Saint Thomas a Becket, a crime for which Henry II later did public penance, which he accepted with joy, to sign the Magna Carta in 1215 to place limits on a king’s power. King John accepted these restrictions, which he signed willingly to guarantee the rights of free Englishmen in perpetuity from arbitrary restriction by a monarch.

However, and without meaning to be redundant on the point, Pope Leo XIII taught us very clearly that there can be no reconciliation between Our Blessed Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ and Belial:

Everyone should avoid familiarity or friendship with anyone suspected of belonging to masonry or to affiliated groups. Know them by their fruits and avoid them. Every familiarity should be avoided, not only with those impious libertines who openly promote the character of the sect, but also with those who hide under the mask of universal tolerance, respect for all religions, and the craving to reconcile the maxims of the Gospel with those of the revolution. These men seek to reconcile Christ and Belial, the Church of God and the state without God. (Pope Leo XIII, Custodi Di Quella Fede, December 8, 1892.)

Our Lady herself explained there is no compromise between her Divine Son and Belial and that the source of every error, deceit and blasphemy none other than the adversary himself, which should teach us that nothing being taught by the conciliar authorities can come from Holy Mother Church, she who is the infallible, inerrant and spotless teacher of Faith and Morals:

229. Guard thyself, therefore, my dearest, against this deplorable error of the children of men, and disengage thy faculties so thou mayest clearly see the difference between the service of Christ and that of Belial. Greater is that difference than the distance between heaven and earth. Christ is the true light, the way, and eternal life (Jn. 14:6); those who follow Him He loves with imperishable love, and He offers them his life and his company, and with it an eternal happiness such as neither eyes have seen, nor ears have heard, nor ever can enter into the heart of man (Is. 64:4). Lucifer is darkness itself, error, deceit, unhappiness and death; he hates his followers and forces them into evil as far as possible, and in the end inflicts upon them eternal fire and horrid torments. Let mortals give testimony whether they are ignorant of these truths, since the holy Church teaches them and calls them to their minds every day. If men give credence to these truths, where is their good sense? Who has made them insane? Who drives from their remembrance the love which they ought to have for themselves? Who makes them so cruel to themselves? O insanity never sufficiently to be bewailed and so little considered by the children of Adam! All their life they labor and exert themselves to become more and more entangled in the snares of their passions, to be consumed in deceitful vanities, and to deliver themselves over to an inextinguishable fire, death, and everlasting perdition, as if all was a mere joke, and as if my most holy Son had not come down from heaven to die on a cross in order to merit for them this rescue! Let them but look upon the price and consider how much God himself paid for this happiness, He who knew the full value of it.

230. The idolaters and heathens are much less to blame for falling into this error, nor is the wrath of the Most High enkindled so much against them as against the faithful of his Church, who have such a clear knowledge of this truth. If the minds of men in our present age have grown forgetful of it, let them understand this happened by their own fault because they have given free reign to their enemy Lucifer. With tireless malice he labors to overthrow the barriers of restraint, so forgetful of the last things and of eternal torment men might give themselves over like brute beasts to sensual pleasures, and unmindful of themselves consume their lives in the pursuit of apparent good until, as Job says (21:13), in a moment they go down to hell, as in truth happens to an infinite number of fools who hate this science and discipline. Do thou, my daughter, allow me to instruct thee. Keep thyself free from such harmful deceit and from this forgetfulness of worldly people. Let the despairing groans of the damned, which begin at the end of their lives and the beginning of their eternal damnation, ever resound in thy ears: O we fools, who esteemed the life of the just as madness! O how are they numbered among the children of God, and their lot is among the saints! Therefore we have erred from the way of truth and justice. The sun has not arisen for us. We wearied ourselves in the ways of iniquity and destruction; we have sought difficult paths, ignoring by our own fault the way of the Lord. What hath pride profited us? What advantage hath the boasting of riches brought us? All those things are passed away from us like a shadow. O that we had never been born! This, my daughter, thou must fear and ponder in thy heart, so before thou goest to that land of darkness (as Job said [10:21]) and eternal dungeons, from whence there is no return, thou mayest provide against evil and avoid it by doing good. During thy mortal life and out of love do thou now perform that of which the damned in their despair are forced to warn thee by the excess of their punishment. (New English Edition of The Mystical City of God: Book Five: The Transfixion, Chapter XX.)

We must not have anything to do with a false church whose teachings are so unstable that they open to mockery within a very short space of time by those who succeed them. Despite our own sins and failings and mistakes, we must stand for the truths of the Holy Faith in all of their holy integrity no matter what anyone says about us or causes us to suffer. Period.

Pope Saint Pius X warned us in Notre Charge Apostolique, August 15, 1910, about those who borrow the language of the Revolution in an effort to pursue “justice” and “peace.”

However, let not these priests be misled, in the maze of current opinions, by the miracles of a false Democracy. Let them not borrow from the Rhetoric of the worst enemies of the Church and of the people, the high-flown phrases, full of promises; which are as high-sounding as unattainable. Let them be convinced that the social question and social science did not arise only yesterday; that the Church and the State, at all times and in happy concert, have raised up fruitful organizations to this end; that the Church, which has never betrayed the happiness of the people by consenting to dubious alliances, does not have to free herself from the past; that all that is needed is to take up again, with the help of the true workers for a social restoration, the organisms which the Revolution shattered, and to adapt them, in the same Christian spirit that inspired them, to the new environment arising from the material development of today’s society. Indeed, the true friends of the people are neither revolutionaries, nor innovators: they are traditionalists. (Pope Saint Pius X, Notre Charge Apostolique, August 15, 1910.)

May our daily fidelity to praying as many Rosaries as our state-in-life permit as we pray the Litany of Loreto in her honor and that of Saint Joseph so that we can, despite our sins and failings, plant the seeds for the Triumph of the Immaculate Heart of Mary and the flowering once again of the true Catholic Faith in the hearts, minds and souls of everyone on the face of the earth as the glory that once was is the glory that is to be restored as a foretaste of the glory to come for all eternity.
