On October 28, the Catholic world was outraged over disturbing footage of Leo XIV’s livestream celebration of religious unity showing Hindu dancers and interfaith rituals inside the Vatican. This took place during a meeting of world religions held in celebration of the 60th anniversary of Nostra Aetate.
Nostra Aetate is the heretical Vatican II document that was penned in 1964 by ex-priest Gregory Baum who at the time was a practicing homosexual and who earlier had raped a Catholic nun. Baum who had been a fierce opponent of Pope Paul VI’s Humanae Vitae on human life continued to live a homosexual life until his passing on October 18, 2017.
Nostra Aetate is all about uniting the Catholic Church with other religions. The document dignifies other religions and heretically affirms that God continues his covenant with the Jews.
At his weekly audience on October 29, Leo said that all religions are a path to God and he urged clergy and laity “to involve themselves in dialogue and in collaboration with the followers of other religions, recognizing and promoting all that is good, true and holy in their traditions.”
In praise of Nostra Aetate, Leo said: “The spirit of ‘Nostra Aetate’ continues to illuminate the path of the church,” which recognizes that all religions can reflect “a ray of that Truth which enlightens all men.”
The problem with this is that non-Catholic religions do not reflect the rays of truth since the Author of Truth [Christ] does not abide in other religions. In his Papal Bull Cantate Domino (1441), Pope Eugene IV dogmatically decreed:
“The most Holy Roman Church firmly believes, professes and preaches that none of those existing outside the Catholic Church, not only pagans, but also Jews and heretics and schismatics, can have a share in life eternal; but that they will go into the eternal fire which was prepared for the devil and his angels, unless before death they are joined with Her.”
