So, in the confessional, will you confess that you're a denier? What's your penance? Now, about those dung fires and grass huts.

[9thLife]

The barf alert is implicit in the first sentence.

[Texas Eagle]

Climate change is actually about changing capitalism.

Committing to memory.

[DesertRhino]

There is no doubt in my mind that this woman lives well, flies constantly on jets, eats food from the other side of the earth. She enjoys every single blessing of capitalism.
She is a tool of the NWO and sees destroying America as part of her mission to remake the world economic order.

[Jeff Chandler]

Please, Lord, do not allow the leaders of Your Church to go on record as opposing economic development.

The UN needs to be evicted from New York. This would be a powerful move as it would make the UN “foreign” in more peoples minds. The edicts would be from somewhere in Europe or Asia and could be ignored more easily. They gain legitimacy just because of their physical location.

Nothing would help us more than to evict them from America.

The Church needs to deal wit the spiritual realm and “render unto Caesar the things that are Caesar’s, and unto God the things that are God’s”...

[aimhigh]

To rephrase a scripture: What good does it do you if you cool the whole world and lose your soul?

[Mrs. Don-o]

There is not, and will not be, any Catholic moral doctrine on "climate change" --- nor can there be, since "climate change" is a geophysical topic, not a moral one.

The moral question would arise only for acts of negligence or malice, harmful to your neighbors or to future generations, e.g. negligently or maliciously harming the water supply. But the technical specifications of "Did this happen" or "How did this happen" are matters of natural science, not moral law.

[Spok]

If climate change is man caused:
1. Why won’t the left debate it?
2. Why does the data have to be faked?
3. Why do only capitalists create green house gases?
4. Why are only Americans to blame?
5. How is a scientific ‘consensus’ suddenly infallible?
6. What caused ice ages and why are those kind of climate fluctuations extinct?
7. How come every time I ask these questions I get bombarded with insults and hate?

Why can’t FReepers READ THE ARTICLE before commenting?

The author’s point is that the Vatican has the wrong focus.

My point is that the Vatican needs to recognize that in buying into manmade global warming, they are PROMOTING POPULATION CONTROL and its key mechanisms, ABORTION AND CONTRACEPTION.

The Vatican needs a real world assessment of the power of FREEDOM, ENERGY PRODUCTION, & CAPITALISM, in combating poverty throughout the world.

Fight the oppressive dictators and quit pretending capitalism and energy production are the problem.
