Jeffrey Sachs and Marcelo Sanchez Sorondo at a meeting of the Pontifical Academy of Social Sciences
(Rome) Jeffrey Sachs, director of the UN Sustainable Development Solutions Network and Neo-Malthusian, has been promoted to full member of the Pontifical Academy of Social Sciences by Pope Francis.
Sachs, one of the most influential advocates of anti-natalism, i.e. population reduction (through contraception, abortion, euthanasia, sterilization, homosexualization), was admitted to the Vatican in 2015 in the course of the publication of the eco-encyclical Laudato si ’by Pope Francis. He is a central figure in bringing the papal agenda into line with that of the UN. More than six years ago, the former chief economist of the UN Secretary-General became a co-opted member of the Pontifical Academy of Social Sciences.
In 2012, under the auspices of the UN Secretary General, then Ban Ki-moon, the UN Network for Sustainable Development (UNSDSN) was established in New York. It reports to twelve working groups, including good governance, full decarbonization, global governance, gender, and population dynamics. There is a precise intention behind every term: global governance means the implementation of a unified world government, population dynamics means population decimation. Jeffrey Sachs, who is also the director of the Earth Institute at Columbia University in New York, has been appointed director. There are offshoots of the UNSDSN in almost all countries. SDSN Germany is based at the German Development Institute in Bonn, which is financed 75 percent from the federal budget and a quarter from the state budget of North Rhine-Westphalia. The members and partners of SDSN Germany range from the Bertelsmann Foundation to the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research and the Heinrich Böll Foundation, the party foundation of the Greens. The UNSDSN is also funded with generous donations from pharmaceutical and communications companies such as British Telecom, Verizon and Ericsson and Glaxo Smith Kline and Novartis.
The UN political agenda, which is to be implemented by 2030, for which Jeffrey Sachs is responsible
Since 2015 there has been a question in the room: What is a Neo-Malthusian doing in the Vatican? Sachs is not the only one who has found open gates in Rome since then. The answer was given by the man who brought Sachs into the Papal States, Curia Bishop Marcelo Sanchez Sorondo, political arm of Pope Francis and Chancellor of the Pontifical Academy of Social Sciences. Sanchez Sorondo said last February, when asked by the CNA press agency: What he said before 2012 no longer applies, "now he [Sachs] has changed". From the mouth of a man who is himself not beyond doubt, that doesn't necessarily sound credible. Among the "blossoms" of Sanchez Sorondo are claims such as:
Abortion is a "consequence of climate change," which was not a slip-up;
humanity is experiencing a “magical moment” because Pope Francis' magisterium coincides with that of the UN;
in communist China, ecclesiastical social teaching is "best realized".
In any case, Sachs seems to feel at home in the Vatican. He was promoted from co-opted to full member by Pope Francis. The Vatican press office reported yesterday:
"The Holy Father has appointed Professor Jeffrey David Sachs, Director of the Center for Sustainable Development at Columbia University in New York, USA, as a full member of the Pontifical Academy of Social Sciences."
Only the position of Sachs ’at Columbia University is mentioned, but not his far more influential position in the implementation of the political UNO agenda. This includes the intention of bringing abortion to the last corner of the earth, as US President Joe Biden put it in his government program.
Since 2015, Sachs has become a “regular guest” of the Pontifical Academy of Social Sciences and other Vatican events. In 2019/2020, despite Corona, he took part in at least six conferences hosted by the Holy See. The subjects covered ranged from business and health to ethics and education. The weight he has in Santa Marta was shown when he was appointed by Pope Francis to participate in the Amazon Synod in 2019, where he beat the drum for the climate agenda.
In addition, Msgr. Sanchez Sorondo's assertion about Sachs does not apply at all. He is still anti-natalist and repeated to Reuters in October 2019, at the time when the Amazon Synod was in session, that the birth rate should be reduced, which should be done by “training girls” and “bringing women into working life”. “That applies to every country, to every religion,” says the man who is a central figure behind the 17 Sustainable Development Goals, which, according to the UN, should be implemented globally by 2030. The range of actions of the anti-natalists is not limited to the points mentioned by Sachs. It is extremely diverse, manipulative and cruel.
