The Catholic Church is being pulled apart from both ends. One pope. Two schisms. No clean answers. On February 2, 2026, the Society of Saint Pius X announced it would ordain new bishops in July — an act Rome has warned will constitute formal schism.

Pope Leo XIV, elected less than a year earlier, faces both fires simultaneously. A Pope Between Two Fires is the essential guide to the most serious crisis in Catholic unity in a ...
