Pope St. Pius X is often seen as the champion of anti-modernism, but this view overlooks his deep commitment to renewal and reform.

Far from being a reactionary, Pius X was a modern pope-one who sought not to resist change but to guide it, proving that continuity, not rupture, defines the Church's path through history.
