No more Ascension Day? New anti-Catholic provocation in France

The coronavirus pandemic represents the perfect excuse for actions against French Catholics. After preventing Christians from celebrating Holy Week and Easter publicly, and after depriving them of being able to participate in the Holy Mass, French authorities are now planning to abolish the state-recognised Ascension Day, which falls on Thursday the 21st of May. In France, it is a day off from work.

 

As France, after several weeks of lockdown is now reactivating its economy, ideas flow from the ruling liberals to overcome the social, economic and financial crisis as soon as possible. The influential Montaigne Institute presented a project that, according to its experts, proposes among other things, departing from the principle of taking at least eleven hours rest between finishing and resuming work.

It also demands the abolition of the current Ascension Day. The Montaigne Institute, which has an ultra-liberal and globalist orientation, is funded by such financial giants as LVMH, Total, VINCI, Carrefour… Its chairman is Henri de Castries, former CEO of the the AXA insurance group, former winner (1994) of the Franco-American Young Foundation Leaders, and chairman of the Bilderberg group’s executive committee.

The Montaigne Institute Orientation Council is headed by professor Ezra Suleiman, who is also part of the Franco-American Young Leaders Foundation. Among Montaigne’s experts is Dominique Moïsi, a member of the Tripartite Commission, who is regularly invited to Bilderberg meetings.

The Institute’s notable figures also include Hakim El Karoui, former director of Rothschild & Cie Bank, appointed in 2012 by the former socialist mayor of Paris, Bertrand Delanoë, as president of the Institute of Islamic Culture. El Karoui is also the founder of the Muslim Association for Islam of France and the chairman of the 21st Century Club.
