New Allegations Against Papal Foundation Scholas Occurentes

(Buenos Aires / Rome) In Argentina there are new allegations against the foundation founded by Pope Francis Scholas Ocurrentes. Construction work on a building for the foundation by the government of ex-President Cristina Kirchner (2007-2015) had made available the equivalent of around 900,000 euros  in 2014, although not even half completed, it should have been completed according to plan. The ownership of the respective property is also unclear.

The directors of the Foundation were in negotiations with the new government of President Mauricio Macri to find an alternate location.

Meeting with the Pope sweepstakes

The new allegations have been made by the very popular Argentinian television journalist, Jorge Lantana. Lantana reported on the close link between the Foundation's activities with high functionaries of the left Peronist Kirchner government, which would have directly affected the campaign 2014/2015.

In the review is also a sweepstakes by Foundation sponsors who offfered a personal meeting with Francis. The Latanas report is entitled "In the Name of the Father" and ended with the question whether Pope Francis knew about all the processes.

In June, media coverage of the Foundation had caused a sensation because Pope Francis had rejected a governmental donation of a million dollars to Schola Occurrentes, the refusal was interpreted as an unfriendly gesture and confirmation that Pope Francis would reject the election of Macris. Pope Francis had quite openly desired the election of the opposition left Peronist candidate instead of  Macris.

Argentine Cabinet chief Marcos Pena has subsequently denied reports of a disagreement between the Pope and President Mauricio Macri. The rejection of the money allegedly for purely formal reasons, because Francis prefers donations from private funds rather than a grant from the state budget, is hardly credible in Rome.

Since autumn 2015 "Pious Foundation of Pontifical Right"

Scholas Occurrentes was established at the initiative of Jorge Mario Bergoglio, then archbishop of Buenos Aires, and then the foundation was raised by Pope Francis after his election as pope to a Pontifical Foundation, based at the Vatican. Since then it has been located at the Pontifical Academy of Sciences, whose Chancellor, Curial Bishop Marcelo Sánchez Sorondo, is one of the closest confidants Pope.

The Foundation supports educational projects for disadvantaged children and young people in 82 countries and the dialogue of cultures and religions. They are controversial not only for some aspects of business practices, but their political preferences in Argentina. Another contentious issue is the educational orientation.

Foundation promotes education "without Christianity", but with gender ideology

What the official Catholic media do not report: the first scandal Scholas Occurentes had already taken place in early May, 2015. The unofficial Catholic news agency InfoVaticana revealed that the Pontifical Foundation advertises on behalf of Francis and with the image of the Pope among children, for gender ideology. The case was officially ignored, by the homophilic mainstream media.

Beginning in June 2016 after Vatican expert Sandro Magister wrote, describing the orientation of the Pontifical Foundation as an "educational revolution". Scholas Occurrentes was a dubious pet project of the Pope: There they are pursuing an education "without Christianity", but with gender ideology.
