The irony isn't lost upon us that on the traditional Feast of Christ the King, the last Sunday of October, changed in the new Conciliar religion to the 'Thirteenth Sunday in Ordinary Time,' and during the Jubilee Mass of the Synodal Teams and Participatory Bodies, the Pope implicitly denies Our Lord's Kingship by relegating Him to one among many possessing the true religion...
Pope Leo says ‘no one possesses the whole truth’ in Sunday sermon
Although no created man possesses the fullness of truth, the Church has a duty to guard and proclaim the infallible truths of the faith.

VATICAN CITY (LifeSiteNews) — Pope Leo XIV has said that “no one possesses the whole truth” and “no one is excluded” from the Church in his most recent Sunday sermon.
In his homily delivered at the Jubilee Mass of the Synodal Teams and Participatory Bodies on October 26, Leo made remarks that could be interpreted as relativistic regarding the Catholic Church’s proclamation of the one true faith.
“The supreme rule in the Church is love. No one is called to dominate; all are called to serve,” the Roman Pontiff said. “No one should impose his or her own ideas; we must all listen to one another. No one is excluded; we are all called to participate.”
“No one possesses the whole truth; we must all humbly seek it and seek it together,” he stated.
He later reiterated this point, saying, “Being a synodal Church means recognizing that truth is not possessed, but sought together, allowing ourselves to be guided by a restless heart in love with Love.”
Leo stressed the importance of the Church being “synodal,” a vague term often used by his predecessor, Pope Francis.
“The synodal teams and participatory bodies are an image of this Church that lives in communion,” he noted.

He said, “[W]e must dream of and build a more humble Church; a Church that does not stand upright like the Pharisee, triumphant and inflated with pride, but bends down to wash the feet of humanity; a Church that does not judge as the Pharisee does the tax collector, but becomes a welcoming place for all; a Church that does not close in on itself, but remains attentive to God so that it can similarly listen to everyone.”
“Let us commit ourselves to building a Church that is entirely synodal, ministerial and attracted to Christ and therefore committed to serving the world,” he concluded.
While it is true that no created man possesses the fullness of truth, the Catholic Church, as the Mystical Body of Christ guided by the Holy Spirit, has always maintained that it is the guardian of the deposit of faith, which is the truth revealed by God.
Pope Leo’s comments are ambiguous and may be interpreted as relativistic, since he failed to make the distinction between individual members of the Church being fallible in their understanding of truth and the Church, as the Mystical Body of Christ, guarding and proclaiming the one true faith.
Sacred Scripture states that “the Church of the living God” is “the pillar and bulwark of the truth.” (1 Timothy 3:15)
Regarding the Church’s authority to proclaim the truth, the 1992 Catechism of the Catholic Church states: “The Church’s Magisterium exercises the authority it holds from Christ to the fullest extent when it defines dogmas, that is, when it proposes, in a form obliging the Christian people to an irrevocable adherence of faith, truths contained in divine Revelation or also when it proposes, in a definitive way, truths having a necessary connection with these.” (CCC 88)
Regarding the Pope’s comment that “no one is excluded” from the Church, Catholic author and commentator Erick Ybarra responded on X:
“Are Jesus and the Apostles welcome? Do their commands have any value? In particular, about not even eating with Christians who live in outward contradiction to the commands of Christ and/or those who obstinately contradict the dogmas of Tradition? (1 Cor 5:1-13; 2 John 1:10) and treating the impenitent ‘faithful’ as heathen and tax collectors? (Mathew 18)” [sic]
“I think Catholic liberals would vomit at the teaching of Jesus and the Church of the Apostles,” Ybarra continued. “They can barely take a Christianity with any testosterone to begin with. They are more interested in the Church that appeals to the pleasure and honor of man than God.”

WHO & EU Launch AI to Control Online ‘Misinformation’
Cindy Harper via TIA | October 24, 2025
The World Health Organization has introduced a major overhaul of its global monitoring network, unveiling an AI-powered platform that tracks online conversations and media activity in real time.
Known as Epidemic Intelligence from Open Sources 2.0 (EIOS), the system is being presented as a new step in “pandemic preparedness,” but its reach extends well beyond disease surveillance.
The upgrade is part of a growing merger between health monitoring, digital tracking, and centralized information control.
![[Image: R041_Eio.jpg]](https://traditioninaction.org/HotTopics/HTimages_r-z/R041_Eio.jpg)
The European Commission’s Joint Research Centre (JRC) launches the EIOS new version
Developed with the European Commission’s Joint Research Centre (JRC), the new version of EIOS is designed to scan the internet for signals of emerging health threats.
According to the WHO, it now automatically analyzes social media posts, websites, and other public sources to detect possible outbreaks.
While this is described as a tool for early warning, it effectively allows a global health authority to observe the world’s digital conversations under the banner of safety.
The WHO’s EIOS Collaboration page indicates that partners are also exploring projects such as “News Article Credibility Detection” and “Misinformation Classification Systems.”
These initiatives suggest a growing interest in shaping how information is categorized and filtered.
The latter effort appears linked to the JRC’s “Misinfo Classifier,” released in 2020, which the JRC described as an AI program that detects “fake news” by analyzing the tone and intensity of language in articles.
The organization claimed the tool achieved an 80% success rate and stated that “this is comparable to the state of the art right now.”
At the time, the JRC said the classifier was already in use by the European Commission and European Parliament, and that it would soon be shared with professional fact-checking organizations.
The existence of that project highlights how data analysis and information control are being integrated into public health infrastructure.

The head of WHO, Tedros Ghebreyesus, relies on Xi Jinping, president of Communist China
The WHO reports that EIOS now operates in more than 110 countries and collaborates with over 30 organizations, including national governments and the European Commission. The platform is being offered “free of charge” to eligible users, along with training materials and support.
This approach ties national monitoring systems directly into a WHO-managed network that continuously gathers and processes global data.
The WHO’s concept of “social listening” sheds more light on this strategy. It defines social listening as “the process of listening to and analyzing conversations and narratives” to understand people’s “attitudes, knowledge, beliefs, and intentions.”
In practical terms, this means that the organization is not only collecting data about disease but also analyzing how citizens think and communicate online.
In its October 13 announcement, the WHO described EIOS 2.0 as “more open, more agile and more inclusive.”
However, under that language lies an expanding surveillance framework that uses artificial intelligence to interpret global social behavior.
A system supposedly for improving health security could easily function as a tool for monitoring public opinion and online expression.
This initiative combines artificial intelligence, government cooperation, and social media tracking under the label of global health security. It represents a change from traditional disease control toward the ongoing analysis of public communication, where algorithms determine which discussions appear “relevant” or “misleading.”
This is something that the WHO has been looking at implementing for some time.
For countries choosing to adopt EIOS, dependence on WHO data and analysis may come at the cost of digital independence.
Under the justification of protecting public health, the WHO is establishing an always-on digital network that watches, classifies, and evaluates global discourse, quietly redefining what it means to manage health and information in the same breath.

Leo XIV Escalates Climate Change: "Countries Will Disappear in Less Than Fifty Years"
![[Image: goqfcmexwiel0v2lmidvummrf237vcfc8nyk53n?...1761462011]](https://seedus0275.gloriatv.net/storage1/goqfcmexwiel0v2lmidvummrf237vcfc8nyk53n?secure=P_mYy3L44gUK1_yxrCgwVw&expires=1761462011)

On 24 October, Pope Leo XIV participated in a meeting of bodies of the Rome Synod on Synods that emphasized buzzwords such as listening, participation, dialogue and inclusion.
He spoke several times about the 'care of creation' as a mission priority: "I recently met with a bishop from Oceania who told me that climate change is such an urgent issue that, if things continue as they are, his country will disappear in less than fifty years."
Pope Leo XIV reiterated that there is an "urgent cry" from people in different parts of the world, whether due to poverty, injustice, or climate change.
Learning from those “who may never be members of the Church”
When talking about Africa, Pope Leo XIV said that he wants the Church to be a bridge, especially when Christians find themselves in the minority alongside members of other religions, such as Islam.
He proposed a Church that listens to "the wisdom that we find in men and women, in members of the Church and in those who are searching and who may never be members of the Church, but who are indeed looking for truth".
Women religious as ministers of sacraments
When asked when "men and women will be equal in the Church", Leo XIV replied: "Unfortunately, the way we live out our faith is often influenced more by our culture than by Gospel values."
He also presented a Peruvian role model: "There is a congregation of consecrated religious women whose vocation is to serve in places where there are no priests. In these remote communities, they are authorised to baptise, act as official witnesses in marriages and bring the presence of the Church to people who would otherwise be deprived of it."
Leo XIV wanted to “set aside the more complex questions that are being studied by various working groups”. He believes that “the real issue lies in the cultural obstacles that still exist.”

Pope Leo holds service with Charles III, head of church that canceled Catholicism for centuries
Nearly five centuries after England outlawed the Mass, its monarch joined a Vatican service with Pope Leo for ‘Christian unity.’

VATICAN CITY, VATICAN - OCTOBER 23: Pope Leo XVI meets with King Charles III during an audience at the Apostolic Palace

(LifeSiteNews [slightly adapted - not all hyperlinks included from the original]) – King Charles III prayed alongside Leo XIV in the Sistine Chapel during a state visit to the Vatican – a gesture unprecedented since England’s schism from Rome.
The king and queen were seated next to Leo XIV, with the Anglican Archbishop of York Stephen Cottrell co-presiding over the ecumenical service of psalms and readings.
The theme of the service was “Christian unity” and was based on Sext (the midday prayers in the Divine Office).
After the ceremony, Leo XIV and the king left the sanctuary together, exchanging a few words as they did so.
Among those present was Cardinal Vincent Nichols of the Archdiocese of Westminster, who was seated next to Rosie Frew, the Moderator of the Church of Scotland’s General Assembly. Frew was dressed in a Roman collar, and the two could be seen talking together in the chapel before the service.
The earlier meeting and service
Earlier in the day, Leo XIV received the royal couple in audience and discussed “matters of common interest,” including “environmental protection and the fight against poverty,” and “the need to continue promoting ecumenical dialogue.”
The king and queen also took part in another ecumenical service at the Basilica of St. Paul outside the Walls, led by Cottrell and Cardinal James Michael Harvey of the Basilica itself, with many of the same dignitaries mentioned taking leading parts.
At this earlier service, the king and queen were again seated in the sanctuary on thrones that bore the royal coat of arms and the words from the Gospel of St. John, Ut unum sint (“That they may be one”).
“The throne will remain in the apse of the Basilica,” reported Vatican News, “and will be used in the future by the king himself and his heirs and successors.” The king was also awarded the honorary title of “Royal Confrater,” with Cardinal Harvey claiming that Charles was being welcomed not just as a head of state but also as a “brother.”
The king bestowed upon Leo XIV the title “Papal Confrater” of St. George’s Chapel, Windsor, and the “Knight Grand Cross of the Order of Bath.”
The English ‘Reformation’
As the king of the United Kingdom, Charles III is the “Supreme Governor of the Church of England.”
In the 1530s, King Henry VIII’s Parliament passed laws bringing England into schism with the Catholic Church. Communion was restored in the 1550s by his daughter Queen Mary, but broken again by Queen Elizabeth I in 1558. Since the break with Rome, no reigning British monarch has prayed in public with a Pope.
The English were obliged to attend Anglican services or face crippling fines. Many Catholic priests were executed as “traitors” during this period.
It took several centuries before civil rights were fully restored to Catholics and the practice of the Catholic religion made legal. To this day, British law prohibits the monarch from being a Catholic and requires a series of Protestant oaths at the coronation ceremony.
The king also recently visited the Birmingham Oratory. However, none of this indicates an imminent conversion to the Catholic faith. Charles III has made visits to many other religious sites, and has previously expressed his sympathy with “Guénonian traditionalism” (or “perennialism”). While some aspects of perennialism may appeal to Catholics, it posits a “transcendental unity of religion” – namely, that all “traditional religions” are manifestations of single, “true religion” prior to each of them.
This philosophy, which is incompatible with the Catholic Faith, is at the root of Charles’ interest in interfaith activities.
Criticism
The Vatican described the encounters as a “historic step for Christian unity,” while critics on both sides warned that such symbolism risks obscuring doctrinal division rather than healing it.
Rev. Kyle Paisley, the son of Rev. Ian Paisley and a Free Presbyterian minister, condemned the state visit and ceremonies. Paisley claimed that the King was not “being true to his oath” and said that he should abdicate.
“The Protestant faith historically and theologically is a world apart from Catholicism,” he said, adding that “I don’t for the life of me see how he can engage in that kind of corporate worship … It gives the impression that it’s not essentially different.”
For similar reasons to those raised by Paisley, Catholic theology warns that communicatio in sacris (the communication in sacred things) with non-Catholics is, in many cases, gravely immoral.
Speaking exclusively to LifeSiteNews, Theo Howard of The Two Cities Podcast said:
Quote:Of all the countless postconciliar grave scandals committed by the hierarchy, communicatio in sacris is perhaps the one faithful Catholics have become most numbed to. Nevertheless, at the sight of the present King, his mistress and several ministers of the Anglican sect being invited to actively take part in Catholic worship, faithful English Catholics cannot but hear the cries of the English martyrs, of Margaret Clitherow or William Hart, or those words of St Cuthbert – “But hold no communion with those who err from this unity of the Catholic Faith”.
One of the roots of the contemporary agony of the Church was the deliberate abandonment of Thomistic philosophy. In response to Henry VIII’s Catholic work ‘In Defence of the Seven Sacraments’, Luther scathingly called him “Rex Thomisticus” (the Thomistic King). It was Pope Leo X who then granted Henry the title Fidei Defensor (Defender of the Faith), which the monarch continues to style himself to this day.
May we respond to these outrages by praying more ardently than ever, that our King, or his successors, convert to the true faith – and that Rome itself be cleansed of Modernism, so that the British King may worthily pray in union with the Catholic Pope, and that what Luther said in scorn may be borne with pride.
