Has the Vatican and the Goracle merged?
I wish the Vatican and the Patriarchate and all the other officialdoms of the Christian faith would just concentrate on the Holy Bible... and the Word...and leave the quasi-scientific mumbo jumbo and secular PC to the Gore-ons and that ilk.
Willing to wager this is nothing but a MSM hit piece.
BS. Never said by anyone.
"the Vatican said"
No, they didn't.
"after drawing up a list of seven deadly sins for our times."
One monseigneur close to the Pope said to some newspaper that polluting the environment is one of many possible sins.
Sometimes this Pope says something really deep and brilliant...this however it not one of those times.
Save the planet,
forget about the soul.
Save the planet,
Kill yourself.
Pretty sick.
No wonder they hate Christians.
Sinning isn’t as much fun as it used to be.

As per usual, the MSM does a hatchet job.
The church must being something right for the lying
MSM to attack them.
Forgive me FR. I posted and did not search.... :< )

Wow, so glad some of us escaped this global warming virus, I am immune I guess. Maybe you get it when you view Gore's movie?
See link above in post #14.
Wow, and some Freepers think Mormonism is off base.
This is one from Sept.

Pope Benedict on Wednesday made another strong appeal for the protection of the environment, saying issues such as climate change had become gravely important for the entire human race.
The Pope made his appeal, his second on environmental issues in four days, at the end of his general audience before some 16,000 people in St Peter's Square.
“Care of water resources and attention to climate change are matters of grave importance for the entire human family,” he said.
“Encouraged by the growing recognition of the need to preserve the environment, I invite all of you to join me in praying and working for greater respect for the wonders of God's creation,” he told his listeners, speaking in English.
The Pope gave his backing to a symposium called “The Arctic: Mirror of Life,” on religion, science and the environment, due to start in Greenland on Thursday and be attended by scientists and religious leaders.
Earlier this month, scientists said previously unknown islands were appearing as Arctic summer sea ice shrinks to record lows, raising questions about whether global warming was outpacing U.N. projections.
Benedict and other world religious leaders have been banging the environmental drum more loudly recently.
Last Sunday in central Italy, Benedict led the Catholic Church's first ‘eco-friendly’ youth rally and told up to half a million people that world leaders must make courageous decisions to save the planet “before it is too late”.
Under Benedict and his predecessor John Paul, the Vatican has become progressively “green”.
It has installed photovoltaic cells on buildings to produce electricity and hosted a scientific conference to discuss the ramifications of global warming and climate change, widely blamed on human use of fossil fuels.
Last month Benedict said the human race must listen to “the voice of the Earth” or risk destroying its very existence.
LOL! Another MSM story.
