Pelosi and Pope Francis meet amid push for action on climate change

Speaker Nancy PelosiNancy PelosiPelosi and Pope Francis meet amid push for action on climate change Growing number of Democrats endorse abolishing debt limit altogether Ilhan Omar to Biden: 'Deliver on your promise to cancel student debt' MORE (D-Calif.) and Pope Francis met Saturday, the same day the pontiff gave a speech calling on lawmakers in countries around the world to act on climate change. 

His Holiness’s encyclical Laudato Si’ is a powerful challenge to the global community to act decisively on the climate crisis with special attention to the most vulnerable communities,” Pelosi, a practicing Catholic, said in a statement released Saturday.

“I expressed the gratitude of those working on climate action in the Congress for the immense moral clarity and urgency that His Holiness continues to bring to the climate crisis, and how we continue to cherish his address to the Joint Session of Congress in 2015,” she added.

Francis on Saturday called for leaders to take action on climate change and put aside “narrow” partisan politics.

“To meet this challenge, everyone has a role to play,″ the pope said. ”That of political and government leaders is especially important, and indeed crucial.”

“This demanding change of direction will require great wisdom, foresight and concern for the common good: in a word, the fundamental virtues of good politics,″ he added. 

The speech comes ahead of a major United Nations climate conference in Scotland that is set to start at the end of October. 

Francis has been a vocal advocate of policies to combat climate change, and he and other religious leaders signed a climate appeal on Monday. 

“It was a spiritual, personal and official honor to have an audience with His Holiness Pope Francis this morning. His Holiness’s leadership is a source of joy and hope for Catholics and for all people, challenging each of us to be good stewards of God’s creation, to act on climate, to embrace the refugee, the immigrant and the poor, and to recognize the dignity and divinity in everyone,” Pelosi said.

No talk about the dignity of unborn babies between the two apostates; that's not PC these days.

This is one of the things that’s reeeealy important for the imposter pope. Other things are: erasing the borders of the USA and Europe so both will lose their lightness and turn into third worlds.

No word on whether the fake pope plans to say anything about the Gospel to them.

My parish priest was so disappointed that she was given a audience with photographs. I believe both JP II and B16 may have given her an audience but no photographs were permitted.

Regarding alleged global warming, government elites need to explain why CO2 fails to keep the heat down in the midday shadow of a solar eclipse.
Solar eclipse 2017: How much did the temperature change during the eclipse? (8.22.17)

They can also explain why global warming alarmists failed to predict other relatively recent cold weather events.

Insights welcome.

Of course he wants us to embrace the migrants, the Catholic Church is making millions off of the UN and U.S. government to shelter, feed, provide phones, hotel rooms and passage along the way to this country. The Church is profiteering.

They are two of the most power-mad controlling people on the planet. They ALWAYS know better than others, except their own ilk. And folks wonder why I have little respect for the Catholic religion or dem/soc/commie government types.

I often wonder how Soros, Bezos, Zuckerberg, Gates, and all the corrupt politicians and Pope manage to celebrate their NWO and domination over all in secretive manner. Well, we just saw with Bambi's self-serving birthday party that didn't follow Fauxi's rules. That was not secretive, but I wonder about the others.

Oh wait, Pelosi bragged about her $20,000 fridge and top line ice cream.

They’re both complete frauds.

A communist pope and a supposed Catholic whose all over-arching political concern is the right to abortion. Yep.
