    Francis’ Friday Fever. PR Cardinal Parolin explained why the poor dear took the day off. “Yesterday he had a very intense day and saw many people. There was the meeting with Scholas Occurrentes and he wanted to greet each person individually.”

    How touching, but how unlikely. We remember him, engines revved, one year ago at the self-same international educational event in the presence of U2 singer Bono. Bloviating about the expansion of his Pontifical Foundation “Scholas Occurrentes” (est. 2015) as a “community of communities and an educational movement of international character” hardly tired him out. Quite the contrary. What could be more energizing than piloting and presiding over the S.O. which today sponsors programs in about eighty countries on five continents?

    Problem for the rest of us is that the M.O. of the S.O. is all about concepts like “global citizenship,” “diversity,” “dialogue,” “listening,” “identity,” “belonging,” “integration,” “bridges,” “peace,” “harmony,” “educational pact,” culture of encounter,” better world,” “new humanism.” No wonder that Francis may be wearing out, or taking a break. After all, Synodality and Smudge ceremonies aside, making himself a worldwide promoter of a completely secularized scholastic education is a big job.
