Excommunicated Fr. Tomislav Vlašić’s “Revelations”
”The Catholic Church Must Announce the Extraterrestrials!”

Tomislav Vlašić is a former Franciscan priest (he has since been laicized and excommunicated) who first became well known as an initial spiritual director to the Medjugorje visionaries, a group of Bosnian children who began receiving apparitions from the Blessed Virgin Mary in 1981.

Six years after those apparitions began, Fr. Tomislav moved to Italy and founded a New Age community, which one of the Medjugorje seers, Marija Pavlovic, disavowed after initially endorsing (not having understood its true nature). At this point, it was discovered that Vlašić had covered up an earlier affair (with a nun, no less), from which he fathered a child.

Fr. Tomislav then publicly went off the rails and abandoned his vocation. Indeed, priests in positions such as he found himself in—particularly theologians working closely with authentic seers—are favorite targets of the Devil, considering how powerful they can be if only they abide in orthodoxy and holiness—and, as we will see, if they reject such esoteric views as ET belief.

One should not be surprised to see Fr. Tomislav was a primary target of Satanic attacks, or that others in similar situations moving forward prove equally alluring targets for the evil one. A theologian himself, Vlašić knew well how to give the appearance of having defended the orthodoxy of the teachings he wandered into after his days at Medjugorje. And while that defense may fool men, it does not fool God.

In 2008, the Vatican’s Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith began investigating Fr. Tomislav for “the diffusion of dubious doctrine, manipulation of consciences, suspect mysticism, disobedience towards legitimately issued orders.” Vlašić was laicized (stripped of priestly authority) in 2009.

In 2018, he founded the group he now leads, the “Church of Jesus Christ of the Whole Universe,” embracing the “revelations” of Stefania Caterina (along with his own), both of which spoke of extraterrestrials.

In 2020, he was excommunicated. Vlašić’s promotion of extraterrestrials, however, began long before the official 2018 formation of his “Church.” In 2012, he produced a video with Stefania insisting they were part of a group called the “central nucleus”—49 individuals chosen by God (dwelling throughout the galaxies) dedicated to saving humanity “in all universes.” His collaboration with Stefania long predates even that video, however; he began his relationship with her at least as early as 1994.[325]

Ms. Caterina’s “revelations,” in turn, are summarized by one author as follows:

Stefania Caterina writes about her alleged experiences and messages from extra-terrestrial entities in the book “Beyond the Great Barrier” The first such experiences began in 1984, with “Ashtar Sheran from the planet Alpha Centauri” commander of interplanetary powerful fleet, scientist, engineer and designer, and then with his wife Kalna, the priest-king Aris and “several brothers and sisters of Alpha Centauri” ...

In her book, Stefania Caterina describes space ships orbiting around the Earth by order of God to prevent the humanity of the Earth destroy itself. She also writes: “One of the most important tasks of the humanity of Alpha Centauri is used to control the largest interplanetary fleet. It is composed of the most powerful spacecraft and crews selected, made available by the planets faithful to God...

The interplanetary flagship is so great that it can obscure the Earth with its shadow...When the time is right, the alien’ will manifest openly and visible to everyone. It is God’s plan that this happens. Then the great interplanetary fleet will be positioned above the Earth, and will be visible from every corner of the world” Stefania Caterina claims she was taken in spirit to visit many planets and received many explanations of the living conditions of “so many brothers of the universe.”[326]

Now having the aid of a theologian (Tomsilav’s excommunication did not remove his intellectual competence), Stefania had an ally to make it appear that her revelations from demons were orthodox—much like many other Catholic ET promoters today have the same ability. Therefore, the material generated by this “Church of the Universe” is even more effective in seducing Catholics than the last “revelation” we considered. It avoids much of the more extreme cosmic-esotericism of Urantia, though still insists that there are indeed inhabited planets all throughout the universe, whose enlightenment and intervention we direly need today on earth.

It even speaks highly of Our Lady of Fatima, Divine Mercy, and many other clearly authentic apparitions to give the appearance of standing shoulder to shoulder with God’s authentic interventions into the world.

In one article on its website, the “Church” relays the “situation of the universe” in 2012 and 2013 as follows:

The Church of the Earth had failed to welcome the invitation of God to announce the existence of life in the universe ... the more sensitive Christians of the Earth who had welcomed the extraordinary instruments had prayed and suffered in 2012. They had waited in vain for a turn of the official Church... On 1 March of [2013] St. Michael said: “I strongly recall all the ecclesiastical hierarchy, beginning with the Catholic ones, to an honest awareness about the presence of life in the universe, and to give to the faithful likewise clear information. This requires a radical rethinking of the universal mission of the Church which cannot be delayed any further.” ... St. Michael added also: “It also requires an appropriate amplification of theology, which must be set up with the times and with the new requirements of the knowledge of the truth.”[327]

Here as elsewhere, demonic “revelations” are fixated upon compelling the Catholic Church to “announce the existence of” extraterrestrials, an announcement that must coincide with a “radical rethinking” of her teachings to align with “the times.”

This is the agenda of the Antichrist. And what is his enticement? The allure of the benefits we could reap from advanced extraterrestrial technology. These “revelations” continue:

What do these faithful brothers and sisters [extraterrestrials] want to communicate [to] us?... Would it not be good for you if they showed you the way to health...? Would it not be good for you if they transmitted to you the power of the Holy Spirit from whom their technology comes? ... with enough to eat for everyone and with healthy and good food? Especially in the book ‘The Universe and Its Inhabitants” we have shared with you some events in which the faithful brothers and sisters prevented the Third World War...They come to us as brothers and sisters who want to help us promote the Spirit of God within us, to awaken our dormant creativity because we, men of the Earth, are so geocentric and attached to the earth ... These brothers and sisters want to bring us peace so that evil and war are blocked...people think that they should pray hundreds of rosaries and the problems will be solved. This is not the kind of prayer Our Lady [asks for], but the elevation of the people to the dimension of the Spirit of God...[328]

With a slight twist (the aliens’ technology comes from the “power of the Holy Spirit”), these “revelations” are ultimately motivated by the same desire that propels the secular Ufologists forward. They feed off an insatiable desire for extraterrestrial technology to usher in a hedonistic utopia on earth, in a Satanic perversion of the Era of Peace that Jesus and Mary have long promised in their authentic apparitions.

“The supreme religious deception is that of the Antichrist, a pseudo-messianism...” (Catechism of the Catholic Church, §675)

While the Urantia Book contains explicit heresies—teachings directly contrary to infallibly defined dogmas—which, if detected, reveal its demonic origin, such evidence is much harder to find in the messages of the two “seers” now under consideration (note: there may well be explicit heresies; I have personally read relatively little of their messages).

Tomislav has been very careful. Discerning souls must not fail to note the increasing severity of the ET deception displayed here. Granted, a sincere Catholic—even if he does not yet grasp the truth about “aliens”—can have a moral certainty that an ex-priest who radically rejected his vocation, his chastity, his vow of obedience, and was so unrepentant as to incur excommunication from the Vatican, would not suddenly be the instrument chosen by God to save the world and usher in a new era.

Nevertheless, we are dealing with a different exercise of discernment here than with Urantia. Fr. Tomislav was a priest-theologian who became world renowned for his association with an authentic private revelation; a position he then took advantage of for the dissemination of a theology based on extraterrestrials.

He is not the only one in such a position, with such credentials, who has done and will do similar things. But the Devil will never use the exact same strategy twice; he is always fine-tuning it. Next time, the deception will be even more difficult to detect than in the present case, and whoever is even open to the possibility of contact with extraterrestrials is setting himself up to succumb.
