<!-- Observers describe the KPE as loyal to the [[Pope]], conservative, and traditional in its Scouting activities and in its spirituality. Great emphasis is placed on the regular [[Sacrament of Penance (Catholic Church)|confession]] (see [[Catechism of the Catholic Church]], Sections 1423-1442) and the regular attendance of [[Eucharist (Catholic Church)|Mass]] (see Catechism of the Catholic Church, Section 1389) which is celebrated in some groups according to [[Tridentine Mass|Tridentine Rite]]. | |||
==Storia== | |||
The KPE was founded on [[February 15]], [[1976]]. Its founding members had left the [[Deutsche Pfadfinderschaft Sankt Georg]] because they felt that their ideas about Scouting and spirituality had been disregarded in the reforms of the 1960s and 1970s. [[Andreas Hönisch]], late Superior General of the SJM, and [[Günther Walter]] were both instrumental in the KPE's founding. | |||
In 1977, the Fédération du Scoutisme Européen (FSE), predecessor of the [[Union Internationale des Guides et Scouts d’Europe]], admitted the KPE as full member. | |||
Some local groups left the KPE in 1986 because of its rigid structure and founded a new Scouting organization, the [[Europapfadfinder Sankt Michael]]. | |||
The [[Diocese of Augsburg]] recognized the KPE as a Catholic youth organization in 1992. The KPE's umbrella organization, UIGSE, was recognized by the [[European Parliament]] in 1984, and as [[Roman Catholic lay ecclesial movement|lay organization]] by the [[Holy See]] in 2003. | |||
In 1994, the [[Südwestfunk]] broadcasted the movie "Himmel und Hölle" (Heaven and Hell), that was based on incidents within the KPE. Its authenticity is questionable, a court decision forbade mentioning possible connections between the movie and the KPE in public.<ref name="court decision">Landgericht Stuttgart, Az. 17 O 190/96</ref> Despite this decision the KPE was heavily attacked by the press after each broadcast of the movie. | |||
In 2003 the organization's paper "Pfadfinder Mariens" promoted a book of the [[far right]] politician [[Rolf Kosiek]] published by the extreme right [[Hohenrain-Verlag]]. Further on, Thomas Niggl OSB, member of the [[Work of the Holy Angels]], advocated theses of the extreme right [[Deutsche Studiengemeinschaft]]. | |||
After press reports on the KPE membership of one superior of the seminary in St. Pölten during the [[Kurt Krenn#St. Pölten pornography scandal|St. Pölten pornography scandal]] the [[Conference of the German Bishops]] reiterated that the KPE is not recognized by the [[Bund der deutschen katholischen Jugend]], the union of recognised Catholic youth organizations in Germany. The statement was interpreted by a German TV magazine as an official disassociation. | |||
Later in the same year some groups and most of the leaders of the Austrian sister organization KPE-Ö left the organization and accused the German KPE and Andreas Höhnisch of interfering in its internal affairs.<ref name="KPE-Ö1">{{cite web |title=KPE-Webmaster erhebt schwere Anschuldigungen gegen SJM und Hönisch |url=http://www.kath.net/detail.php?id=9390 |publisher=kath.net |accessdate=2007-01-28 |language=German}}</ref> In response the supporters of German KPE stated that these groups were influenced by [[Freemasonry|masonic]] ideas.<ref name="KPE-Ö2">{{cite news |title=Pfadfinderkrise in Österreich?

==Controversie== | |||
Critics of the KPE focus mainly on three points, namely: | |||
*[[proselytization]] | |||
*cooperation with Catholic fundamentalist groups | |||
*isolation of members from the outside world | |||
Critics accuse the KPE of forcing its members to participate in religious exercises, especially in attending mass and regular confession.<ref name="netzwerksekten">{{cite web |title=Katholische Pfadfinderschaft Europas (KPE) |url=http://www.netzwerksekten.privat.t-online.de/kpe.htm |publisher=Netzwerk gegen Sekten Arbeitskreis Münsterland |accessdate=2007-01-28 |language=German}}</ref> In some cases younger Scouts and Guides had been horrified by drastic descriptions of [[Hell]]. [[Pro-life]] manifestations organized by the KPE and [[procession]]s against [[Blasphemy|blasphemic]] movies support this view of massive religious influence in its members' lifes. | |||
The cooperation of the SJM with conservative Catholic groups as the [[Priestly Fraternity of St. Peter]], the [[Aktion Leben]] and [[Una Voce]] is used as evidence when accusing the KPE of [[Catholic traditionalism]].<ref name="SZ 1995-07-01">{{cite web |title=Die Machenschaften der Katholischen Pfadfinderschaft Europas |url=http://www.sekteninfo-bayern.de/KPE-SZ.html |publisher=[[Süddeutsche Zeitung]] |accessdate=2007-01-28 |language=German}}</ref> Until 1992, the adherence to the Work of the Holy Angels was officially advocated by the KPE.<ref name="netzwerksekten"/> Today, still some members of the KPE hold contacts to the [[Work of the Holy Angels]] and the [[Society of St. Pius X]].<ref name="sekteninfo-main">{{cite web |title= Infos über die katholische Pfadfinderschaft Europas |url=http://www.sekteninfo-bayern.de/kpe.htm |publisher=Sekteninfo-Bayern.de |accessdate=2007-01-28 |language=German}}</ref> In 2007, there is at least one German Scout group connected to the Society of St. Pius X with very close contacts to the KPE.<ref name="">{{cite web |title=Satzung |url=http://www.st-theresia-gym.de/kpj/richtlinien/KPJ-Satzung_10-06.htm |publisher=Katholische Pfadfinderschaft Jeanne d'Arc |accessdate=2008-01-28 |language=German}}</ref> | |||
The isolation of the KPE's members from other, possibly interfering, groups is mainly criticized by German Scouts. Until 2000, groups of the KPE participated in and even organized joint events.<ref name="JF">{{cite web |title=Der Tradition verpflichtet |url=http://www.jf-archiv.de/archiv99/109aa34.htm |publisher=[[Junge Freiheit]] |accessdate=2007-01-28 |language=German}}</ref> Since then, the KPE retreated nearly totally from the German Scout movement; only a few groups hold contacts to similar oriented organizations like the [[Evangelische Pfadfinderschaft Europas]] or the Europapfadfinder Sankt Michael.<ref name="kreuz.net">{{cite news | title=Das Singen ist ihnen noch nicht vergangen, den Katholiken |publisher=kreuz.net |accessdate=2007-01-28 |language=German}}</ref> | |||
