The best way to bequeath a more sustainable environment to our children is not to have any.

Its scary. A planet without a single human being on it flies in the face of the Divine Message: "be fruitful and multiply." These people hate God as much as they hate His Handmaiden, Man.

"Show me just what Mohammed brought that was new, and there you will find things only evil and inhuman, such as his command to spread by the sword the faith he preached." - Manuel II Palelologus

This has happened before: the Albigensian madness in southern France in the 12th and 13th Century. This was a gnostic religious movement which held that the physical world was evil and created by Satan.

They said the worst crime was to “cruelly” trap another soul in flesh by bringing another child into the world. Their main commandment was to abstain from natural (procreative) intercourse.

Their leaders, called Cathari, were celibate and morbidly ascetical: they wouldn’t eat meat or burn a fire to keep warm (small carbon footprint?) -—and they condemned the Catholics who said it was morally OK to eat and drink and keep warm and marry and make love and have children.

The Albigensians told their followers that Christianity (Catholicism) was a lie and that they had no religious or moral obligations other than childlessness. It was OK for them to have non-procreativesex , so homosexuality and contraception were virtuous.

The Catholic Church was appalled by the rapid spread of this insane movement across southern France. After the failure of peaceful attempts at conversion, the Church was able to defeat them only by calling a Crusade.

What’s next with the New Albigensians? Watch and see.
