The Pontifical Academy of Sciences has invited California governor Jerry Brown to deliver a keynote address in their upcoming meeting on climate change to be held in the Vatican.
This is not the first time the Vatican has offered a platform to the contentious California governor from which to proclaim his views on global warming.
Invited to speak at a similar Vatican event in 2015, Jerry Brown, a darling of Planned Parenthood, railed against climate-change skeptics, calling them well-financed “troglodytes” who are determined to “bamboozle” the gullible.
The Vatican hosted 10 U.S. Democrat mayors as well as Governor Jerry Brown of California at its event, while no Republicans were present. At the conclusion of the event, Brown joined the other politicians in signing a declaration stating that “human-induced climate change is a scientific reality, and its effective control is a moral imperative for humanity.”
In his address, Brown said that climate change is “the biggest threat of our time” after nuclear annihilation. “If we don’t annihilate ourselves with nuclear bombs then it’s climate change,” he said.
He called for a crusade against the “fierce opposition and blind inertia” of “well-financed” climate change skeptics.
Although nominally Catholic himself, Brown has been a passionate supporter of abortion-on-demand in opposition to the Catholic Church’s defense of unborn children, and has called himself “an uncompromising champion of a woman’s right to choose.”
In the most recent WHO report on air pollution, the U.S. was listed as one of the countries with the cleanest air in the world, significantly cleaner than the air in Germany, Italy, Switzerland, the UK, Japan, Austria and France, not to mention major polluters such as India, China, Egypt and a number of former Soviet republics.

God help us!
Today seems that both politics and religion suffer from posers.
BTW, consider me Lutheran!
In the 1950’s Brown attended Sacred Heart Novitiate, a Jesuit novice house. If he had completed his studies and then studied at and graduated from a seminary he would have become a Catholic priest. Brown left Sacred Heart after three years.
Brown studied Zen Buddhism in Japan in the 1980’s.
The very least Francis could be doing is raising theological questions on the assertions made in the Islamic codex (which is their code of observance and behavior) known as Sharia, Beginning with this question

Instead of equating their bizarre concepts of what a Monotheistic Creator is and requires. With what JudeoChristian beliefs are. While they in the belief that they are following God’s command ruthlessly murdering and torturing non believers and destroying their edifices.
Jerry Brown is a former Jesuit. Really.
Look for hypocrisy in the dictionary and you should find a picture of the Vatican.
I really wish we had a Catholic pope.
The world is well on its way. Not there yet but stuff like this.....
Wait a minute—they want the guy to fly all the way from California to the Vatican wasting/er using precious natural resources...to lecture the Vatican about everyone wasting natural resources.
As the joke goes, if God wanted Jerry Brown at the Vatican he would snap his fingers and put him there. :-)
Manipulative, ruthless, greedy globalist Idiocy gone to seed.
I think we’re almost there IMHO - almost...
Sheesh.

Please discern prayerfully where you want to be. Francis is temporary, like Bill Clinton and Obama were. And Lutherans don’t have the Body, Blood, Soul, and Divinity of Jesus Christ in the Blessed Sacrament.
John 6:63. It is the spirit that gives life; the body is of no account; the words which I have spoken to you are spirit and life.
You won’t find God in ritual, it must come from the heart.
The Blessed Sacrament is the Sacred Heart of Jesus.
That’s the real Heart. It has nothing to do with ritual.
