The Vatican’s supernatural mission has been replaced by a laser-like focus on the left-wing goals of the United Nations and the international liberal elite.

Pope Francis is often cast as an “outsider,” even as his Vatican increasingly serves as a salon for the most insular of insiders. This week the Vatican held an online conference for the global elite entitled “Exploring the Mind, Body & Soul. How Innovation and Novel Delivery Systems Improve Human Health.” The event attracted a who’s who of prominent progressives, many of whom are anti-Catholic secularists. Speakers included Chelsea Clinton, Jane Goodall, the Aerosmith rock star Joe Perry, and, of course, Dr. Anthony Fauci.

Pope Francis, in the eyes of progressives, is a very useful left-wing propagandist, a fact that Fauci implied in his speech to the conference. The pope, he acknowledged, can reach audiences that he can’t: “You have someone who’s a deeply religious person who will listen to their clergy. That’s different than me with a suit going into an area telling people to do something.”

Fauci, according to the Catholic News Agency, responded to questions from CNN’s Sanjay Gupta, one of the many liberal media darlings enlisted to moderate the event. Fauci complained that some don’t “appreciate the evolution of understanding and the evolution of knowledge, that you’re going to change some of your viewpoints because the data itself will not necessarily change, but additional data changes the status of your knowledge.”

Cardinal Gianfranco Ravasi, president of the Pontifical Council for Culture, served as a host of the event. “More lenses are needed to bring into focus a complete picture of being and existence,” he said to the press, explaining the need for the conference. What an absurd claim. That the Vatican regards Chelsea Clinton and company as experts on being and existence speaks volumes about its politicized mission under Pope Francis.
