The pope recalled how his long flight from Rome last weekend, he marveled at the sparkle of the Mediterranean, the grandeur of the north Africa desert, the lushness of Asia's forests and the vastness of the Pacific Ocean. <.i>

On the subject of consu,erism -- I wonder what airline he flew cabin class on to get from his shanty in old shantytown to Australia.

You guys need to show a little more respect for the Pope. He isn't just some politician jumping on the environmental bandwagon for political gain. Rampant consumerism and materialism are still bad things even if you don't believe in global warming.

And if you're Catholic, and find yourself disagreeing with the Pope, then you might consider that it is you who need to change, not him.
