The first American pope, Leo XIV, is making waves by unapologetically restoring traditional Catholic doctrine on marriage, family, and the dignity of life. His early remarks have sparked outrage among progressive activists, but they also mark a sharp turn away from the ambiguities of the Francis papacy. We’re going to see the historical and theological roots of Pope Leo's views, exposing the irony of modern progressives advocating for pre-Christian values under the guise of "inclusion."

Highlights:

• “Pope Leo affirmed that the family is founded on ‘the stable union between a man and a woman’, and that the unborn and elderly enjoy dignity as God’s creatures, articulating clear Catholic teaching on marriage and abortion at the start of his pontificate.”
• “Woke activists are, in point of fact, the regressives. They are the ones who want to return to the darkness of a world closed off from the heavenly life that has broken into our world in and through Christ and his body, the church.”
• “Progression always, by definition, involves return, as time itself is increasingly transfigured by the light of eternal and everlasting glory.”
