LEICESTER, United Kingdom – Scotland’s bishops say they would “warmly welcome” Pope Francis if he visited Glasgow later this year for a major UN climate summit.
According to an unsourced report last week in The Times, a London-based newspaper, discussions are taking place “at the highest level” in the Vatican for a papal trip to the Scottish city for the COP26, which takes place Nov. 1-12.
The conference was originally meant to take place in 2020, marking the fifth anniversary of the landmark Paris climate agreement, but was postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Francis had released his 2015 encyclical letter Laudato Si’ in part to make the case for greater protections for the environment to world leaders ahead of that UN meeting.
If Francis made the trip, it would be the third papal visit to the UK, after Pope St. John Paul II toured the country in 1982 and Pope Benedict XVI visited in 2010. Both pontiffs made Scotland part of their itinerary.
The Times noted that Sally Axworthy, the UK’s ambassador to the Holy See, met privately with Francis last month.
“Everyone who is a member of the UN framework convention on climate change can attend and that includes the Holy See, which has observer status,” she told the newspaper. “It is perfectly possible they will attend but it is up to them to decide the level of representation.”

Pray it doesn’t mean they intend to burn him at the stake/s
The Vatican under the command of Pope Francis is busy rebuking ownership of firearms for personal protection and supressing followers of the pre Vatican 2 liturgy form including the latin mass or decrying evangelism meaning conversion. But when it comes to other forms of mono theistic beliefs such as the One World Abu Dhabi Movement. Francis refuses to say one word disclaiming and decrying what practice adherents of the Islam code Sharia not only claim, but truly believe that God has authorized them to any evil means using force or decption used to convert is justified as well as kill those who refuse to submit to their version of Gods will .
Of course they would warmly welcome Pope Soros.
Sounds like another circle jerk in robes to me.
Why would a pope have a seat at a UN climate scam conference? Any other religious leaders there? What special expertise would they bring to the table?
Like abortion on demand?
