May 2 2026 Vatican-vs-Tech audit ripple. Tracks the institutional-Catholic vs Catholic-postliberal-tech network configuration following May 8 2025 elevation of Robert Francis Prevost to Pope Leo XIV. Engine reading per substrate-vs-announcement morphology + the existing 13-concept engine staged conflict stack: public ideological combat is staged staged conflict / managed opposition serving overlapping operator-class interests. Mythos layer (Magnifica Humanitas projected May 15 2026, Quo vadis humanitas Mar 4 2026, Thiel Antichrist lectures Oct 2025 SF / Mar 2026 Rome) generates intense rhetorical friction; ledger layer (IOR €2.1bn, KoCAA $29.5 billion, Ave Maria $3.7 billion) reflects ZERO AI-capex divestment despite proven divestment capability via Vatican mining-divestment campaign Mar 2026. Three-order convergence (Jesuit IAJU + Augustinian Villanova + Opus Dei prelature) reveals unified operator-class node. ~750 sources cross-referenced; Webb dual-verdict applied throughout. Apr 23 substrate-cross-check discipline cleared. Forward-prediction: monitor IOR 2025 Annual Report for AI-capex screening clauses; KoCAA / Ave Maria fund-prospectus updates for AI-labor-displacement screens; Vatican formal statements naming/barring imitatio_foundation or Palantir/Anduril executives from Pontifical Academy events.
