Peter Thiel, US billionaire and Palantir co-founder, is hosting a secretive, invitation-only conference in Rome exploring the concept of the Antichrist and its implications for global governance. The event, closed to the press and undisclosed in location, has drawn attention from the Roman Catholic Church. While Catholic institutions deny hosting the event and no meeting with Pope Leo is scheduled, some Church figures have criticized Thiel's views, describing them as challenging liberal consensus and raising concerns about technology's societal role.
