Interview with Leo XIII (Part 6): The Catholic Antidote Against the Architecture of Deception

Throughout this journalistic series, we have exposed, with the magisterial scalpel of Humanum Genus, the anatomy of the naturalistic beast. We have seen how the sect attacked reason, hijacked the State, corrupted the family, and established a global tyranny based on false equality. The diagnosis, as crude as it may be, is not an invitation to fatalism. The Catholic never succumbs to despair because he knows that the course of history is in the hands of Christ the King.

To close this grand simulated interview, I ask the Supreme Pontiff about the strategy of Resurrection. The architecture of deception seems omnipotent, but it has an insurmountable weakness: it cannot withstand the light of Truth.

Dr. Alejandro de la Garza: Your Holiness, faced with an enemy that controls high finance, parliaments, education, and much of the media culture, the natural reaction of many faithful is retreat or discouragement. However, your encyclical is a call to militant action. What is the first and most urgent instruction you give to those of us engaged in this cultural and spiritual war?

Leo XIII (Humanum Genus): We wish it to be your rule first of all to tear away the mask from Freemasonry, and to let it be seen as it really is; and by sermons and pastoral letters to instruct the people as to the artifices used by societies of this kind in seducing men and enticing them into their ranks, and as to the depravity of their opinions and the wickedness of their acts. As our predecessors have many times repeated, let no man think that he may for any reason whatsoever join the Masonic sect, if he values his Catholic name and his eternal salvation as he ought to value them.

Dr. Alejandro de la Garza: Unmasking the adversary is, indeed, our primary journalistic duty at Editorial Santa Jacinta. To call things by their name and not compromise with the euphemisms of modern secularism. Now, for the people not to fall into these traps, they need to be firmly rooted in the truth. Where should we concentrate our formative efforts to build a solid defense?

Leo XIII (Humanum Genus): In the next place, by frequent instructions and exhortations, the multitude must be drawn to learn diligently the precepts of religion; for which purpose we earnestly entreat you, by opportune writings and sermons, to teach them the elements of those sacred truths in which Christian philosophy is contained. The result of this will be that the minds of men will be made sound by instruction, and will be protected against many forms of error and inducements to wickedness, especially in the present unbounded freedom of writing and insatiable eagerness for learning.

Dr. Alejandro de la Garza: Deep doctrinal formation is, therefore, the indispensable shield. But beyond the battle of ideas, you warned that human effort was not enough. Organization into Catholic associations like the Third Order of St. Francis or workers' guilds was strongly recommended by you. But what is the ultimate spiritual resource without which all social action would be doomed to failure against this principality of darkness?

Leo XIII (Humanum Genus): But, as our united labors will by no means suffice to pluck up these pernicious seeds from the Lord's field, unless the Heavenly Master of the vineyard shall mercifully help us in our endeavors, we must, therefore, with great and anxious care, implore of Him the help which the greatness of the danger and of the need requires. We must pray to Mary, the Virgin Mother of God, that, as from the very conception she defeated the enemy of mankind, so she may now protect the Church. Let us also beseech Michael, the prince of the heavenly angels; and the glorious St. Joseph, and the great Apostles Peter and Paul.

Dr. Alejandro de la Garza: It is a return to the theology of Christian history. The final resolution of this combat will not be the work of political cunning, but of divine intervention requested by the perseverance of the just. We are immensely grateful for the perpetual light emanating from your Magisterium, Your Holiness.

The architecture of deception is in plain sight for anyone who wants to see it. The Freemasons of yesteryear are the globalist technocrats of today; their methods of infiltration and moral dissolution remain intact. However, their weakness also remains the same: they operate on lies and vice. We, armed with intelligence sharpened by grace, the Rosary in hand, and the dialectical sword of St. Michael, have the inescapable duty to wage a frontal battle. Victory, the divine Promise assures us, is guaranteed. Non praevalebunt.
