Global Warming? The Pope is Wrong
April 27, 2015
Alan Caruba
My thoughts regarding the Pope are rooted in my knowledge of the long record of lies, false predictions, and claims by various environmentalists over the years.
When the Vatican announced it would hold a conference on April 28 called “Protect the Earth, Dignify Humanity: The Moral Dimensions of Climate Change and Sustainable Development”, I wondered why the Vatican is not holding a conference to organize the protection of Christians—particularly in the Middle East—against the wholesale genocide that is occurring. The Pope is not alone in this. There appears to be little urgency in addressing a threat comparable to the Holocaust of the last century that consigned six million Jews to death for being Jews.
I frankly do not know what is meant by “the moral dimensions of climate change.” Climate change is something that was occurring long before there was a human population on planet Earth. It is the measurement of the previous global cycles through which the Earth has passed for billions of years. It is profoundly natural. Applying a moral dimension to it makes no sense whatever.
As for “sustainable development”, that is a term that environmentalists use to deny any development that benefits the human population.
At the heart of environmentalism, however, is a deep disdain and antagonism to the human race. From its earliest advocates, one can find allusions to humanity as “a cancer” on the Earth. The Catholic Church has been an advocate for the human race, most notably opposing abortion that kills humans in the womb. Its charitable work is legendary.
The Green’s response to the voices of those scientists who courageously spoke out to debunk their lies has been to denounce and try to silence them. There is no science to support the global warming hoax.

GLOBAL WARMING? THE POPE IS WRONG...More often than not most socialists are and this Pope is no exception. I do believe it would be best if the Pope would stick to his calling, in his case religion. Well just a thought....
“The Pope is always ready to jump into the last wagon of the radical left while looking the other way in order not see the holocaust of Christians going on in the Muslim world.”
He runs a great risk here IMHO. Once a person is exposed as a fool on one thing, it’s hard to take them seriously on anything else... And I say that as a practicing Catholic.
It is deeper than that, the Pope is willing to disregard the spiritual for the material.
It is the abandonment of the human soul’s salvation in heaven itself for the earthly realm.
If the Pope thinks Man Made Global Warming is a threat to the earth, then you would think he’d support birth control and abortion.
The Pope seems to have forgotten that it is GOD who controls the climate.
But then I think this Pope has spent more time reading Darwin and Marx rather than studying the Bible.
Yes. This is the heart of the matter. The Church is supposed to be a mystical body which exists in Eternity, not a participant in shallow, worldly concerns. AGW, whether it is real or not, belongs in the category of things which will pass away. Its debate has no more ecclesiastical pertinence than a discussion of whether you should buy a Cadillac or a Lincoln.
The Pope is a human being with an opinion every bit as important, but not more so, than yours....I don’t agree either, but our president does, our former vice-president does, Governor Brown does.....so what???
I am sure that there is no such thing as a Marxist Catholic pope.
The ideology of Marxism and Socialism is incompatible with the Catholic Canon and all true Christian doctrine, because of subsidiarity and the notion of Free Will (Choice). Slavery —socialism/Marxism—is dehumanizing and is always EVIL.
This pope is either misquoted, on dope, bribed, or is a Freemason/sodomite infiltrator on the Fr. Oko “Homofascist” list. Maybe, Pope Benedict XVI was forced out (unprecedented) for a reason.
Pass the Popcorn, please.
But then I think this Pope has spent more time reading Darwin and Marx rather than studying the Bible. As to your first point....he can't
as to your second point, you seem to be well up on the teachings of Darwin and Marx........why is that???
+1
Otherwise a new ice age will start.
This Pope is an Ass.
He’s more than wrong, he’s a liar.
One might have thought that the Latin church having come out on the wrong end of their last foray into taking an institutional position on scientific matters — the defense of Aristotelian celestial mechanics against Galileo et al. — might have learned a lesson.
This Pope is a death and destruction-loving Leftist. What more can you expect?
Oh good, a protestant ass expert, how convenient!!
Plenty of first hand experience I'd guess!!

"But the debate is settled. Climate change is a fact," said President Barack Obama in his 2014 State of the Union address. Saying the debate is settled is nonsense, but the president is right about climate change.
GlobalChange.gov gives the definition of climate change: "Changes in average weather conditions that persist over multiple decades or longer. Climate change encompasses both increases and decreases in temperature, as well as shifts in precipitation, changing risk of certain types of severe weather events, and changes to other features of the climate system."
That definition covers all weather phenomena throughout all 4.54 billion years of Earth's existence.
Climate change predictions have been wrong for decades. Let's look at some. At the first Earth Day celebration, in 1969, environmentalist Nigel Calder warned, "The threat of a new ice age must now stand alongside nuclear war as a likely source of wholesale death and misery for mankind."
Climate change propaganda is simply a ruse for a socialist agenda. Consider the statements of some environmentalist leaders. Christiana Figueres, the U.N.'s chief climate change official, said that her unelected bureaucrats are undertaking "probably the most difficult task" they have ever given themselves, "which is to intentionally transform the (global) economic development model."
The most disgusting aspect of the climate change debate is the statements by many that it's settled science. There is nothing more anti-scientific than the idea that any science is settled. Very often we find that the half-life of many scientific ideas is about 50 years. For academics to not criticize their colleagues and politicians for suggesting that scientific ideas are not subject to challenge is the height of academic dishonesty.

That happened the night of his election, when he knelt down to receive the blessing of the crowd.
“I’m not like other Popes. I’m much more humble. I’m different. Look at me! Look at meeee! Look at MEEEEE!!!! I’m humble!!!!!”
The best thing the next Pope could do is NOTHING that calls attention to his personality, his humility, etc. And no press conferences, few or no plane trips, etc.
Roman Catholic for 50 +, Graduate of an RC University… and you?
