Vatican’s Peace Illusion: Scholas Occurrentes’ Naturalistic Mirage
Vatican News portal (November 7, 2025) reports on the second “Meaning Meets Us” gathering organized by Scholas Occurrentes, featuring fifty young participants from Israel, Palestine, and the United States. The event emphasized dialogue, games, and interreligious encounters, culminating in a meeting with antipope Leo XIV, who encouraged them to “build bridges.” Shadan Khatib (a Palestinian Arab from Israel) and Yehonatan Grill (an Israeli student) praised the “safe space” to express themselves, while José María del Corral, Scholas’ director, claimed participants rediscovered their “inner child” through activities devoid of Catholic doctrine. The article frames this as a model for peacebuilding, ignoring the supernatural mission of the Church.
Naturalistic Peace vs. the Kingship of Christ
The gathering reduces peace to a purely human endeavor, omitting the Regnum Christi (Kingdom of Christ) as the sole source of true harmony. Pius XI’s encyclical Quas Primas (1925) declares: “When once men recognize, both in private and in public life, that Christ is King, society will at last receive the great blessings of real liberty, well-ordered discipline, peace and harmony”. In contrast, Scholas Occurrentes promotes anthropocentric utopianism, echoing Vatican II’s Gaudium et Spes heresy that “peace results from mutual respect.” The Syllabus of Errors (1864) condemns such naturalism: “It is false that the Church ought to reconcile herself with progress, liberalism, and modern civilization” (Proposition 80).
The Modernist Subversion of True Dialogue
Cardinal George Jacob Koovakad’s Dicastery for Interreligious Dialogue epitomizes the conciliar sect’s apostasy. By fostering a “space where everyone is equal,” he denies extra Ecclesiam nulla salus (no salvation outside the Church). St. Pius X’s Lamentabili Sane (1907) condemns the idea that “revelation could not be completed with the Apostles” (Proposition 21), yet Scholas treats Islam and Judaism as equal paths. The article quotes Del Corral:
“The Church as mother—welcoming all.”
This sentiment, devoid of conversionary zeal, betrays the Great Commission (Matt. 28:19).
Omitting the Supernatural: A Silence That Condemns
Not once does the article mention grace, the Sacraments, or repentance. Participants “prayed,” but the pluralistic context renders such acts idolatrous. Pius IX’s Syllabus rejects the notion that “the Roman Pontiff can and ought to reconcile himself with progress” (Proposition 80). The event’s focus on “dreaming of peace” through “artificial intelligence” (as Del Corral absurdly suggests) ignores the Unbloody Sacrifice of Calvary as the only remedy for sin. The true Church teaches, “Peace is not the absence of war but the tranquility of order” (St. Augustine).
Scholas Occurrentes: Masonic Tool of the Antichurch
Founded by Bergoglio, Scholas advances the United Nations’ globalist agenda. Its “trust-building games” and secular psychology replace Catholic asceticism, reducing the Faith to therapeutic emotivism. The False Fatima Apparitions file warns of Masonic operations using “dialogue” to weaken doctrine, precisely Scholas’ method. Antipope Leo XIV’s smile and empty encouragement—
“change begins with us”
—denies the Cross, reducing Christianity to social activism.
Conclusion: The Abomination of Desolation in Vatican Walls
This gathering exemplifies the conciliar sect’s abandonment of Quas Primas’ mandate: “Nations will be reminded by the annual celebration of this feast that not only private individuals but also rulers and princes are bound to give public honor and obedience to Christ.” By exalting human dialogue over divine truth, Scholas Occurrentes mocks the Blood of Martyrs. As Pius XI warned, when Christ is dethroned, society descends into chaos—precisely the “discouragement” these youth feel, yet are offered no remedy but lies.
