ROME - As a month-long summit of bishops on young people gets set to close, Church leaders from every continent signed a petition Friday asking for “ambitious and urgent climate action,” looking ahead to the next gathering of bishops in 2019 where climate change and its repercussions are expected to take center stage.

Rep. Cramer, the ND opponent to “Heidi”, also believes in climate change”.

Clearly wrong.
Climate DOES change but on the macro level, human impact is minimal.

Because when it comes to a complex scientific subject* that requires understanding of many different disciplines I always go to the nearest theologian.

*Those who know science know that AGW is NOT a Scientific Theory.

What exactly does climate change have to do with serving the Lord?

When I first moved to Canada I went to a church I think it was a United something. The pastor launched into an anti-American tirade. I never ever went back to that place. I don’t know why pastors ministers Etc feel that they have to get involved in politics.

Religion is about why. Science is about how.These guys’ forte is religion.

How about the scientists leave religion to you and you leave science to the scientists. Mkay?

I wonder if they are equally behind ambitious action in getting rid of pedophile priests. Oh and by get rid of I don’t mean secretly move them from one parish to another and pay off any victims that they can’t intimidate into being quiet.

Or to put it another way look over there climate change (the sky is falling) is going to kill us all don’t worry about a few (80% at most) sexual predators in the clergy.

You have my sympathy. Walked out of ECLA, UMC and RCC because of inappropriate political propagandizing.

Episcopalians and other sects not any better.

They took over schools, entertainment, media and churches while we politely
and quietly sat by.

Bishops from all continents??

And how did they get to Rome?

Walk? Take the train? Sail across the oceans?

No, they flew in on expensive, polluting jet aircraft, drove in private chauffeured limos, and are no doubt dining on expensive food and wine.

So what have they done to mitigate "climate change"?

Matthew xxiii says all you need to know.

Things to come

Not that it matters one way or another what I believe or think; but I do believe that we are already several years in to another anniversary of a repetitive event which about 1500 BC or about 3600 years ago, give or take, amongst many other things triggered the (TEN PLAGUES) as well as the explosion of Thera, located within the Archipelago of Santorini and at the same time rearranged the Mediterranean landscape permanently. Indirectly and in a roundabout way, turning days in to night for some time, and providing the final straw, scaring the Egyptian ruler at the time, most likely Thutmose III not only giving him an Excedrin headache but also convincing him that it would be a good idea to release the Israelites from bondage. This event entered the annals of history as the EXODUS.

Along here it may be of interest to note that the TEN PLAGUES were not events just made to order for good old Moses, as similar events; of course of somewhat different nature bedeviled the ancient Chinese as well. What became evident by searching some of the ancient records within the same timeframe, what clearly points out that what was taking place at the time was not just localized, but affected the whole planet. The interesting part is that the Jews being pretty sharp by nature, especially one in particular, MOSES, utilized these events to threaten the Egyptian ruler with and by doing so eventually gained the release of all the Israelis from bondage.

Going back in history using the same time span or multiples of 3600 we arrive at another historic event, which was predictable yet unavoidable and once again it entered the annals of history as the DELUGE. In other words these events seem to have a common denominator or trigger and once again it seems we are running into another one and probably are already at the beginning of it causing all kinds of strange weather patterns along with what humans refer to as “Global warming” etc. but the finale is yet to come.

I have a feeling that the Vatican may be thinking along similar lines and in order to get ahead of the proverbial curve, a while back built a fairly sophisticated observatory on Mount Graham in Arizona. Actually about 25 years ago when I found out about this project it made me wonder as to what are they really looking for? And as I looked into this subject a little closer, much to my surprise, many interesting things turned up.

To anyone who never has looked into this subject, given it much thought or let religious believes get in their way, all this may sound like some crackpot idea. But whatever has been taking place so far in regards unusual weather patterns, more frequent earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, flooding, draughts as well as unusual levels of heat, producing hard to control fires as well as seasons running into one another etc. speaks pretty well for this repetitive event. There are plenty of records of all this taking place currently on our planet, all it takes is for a person to look for it, as all this seems to be validating this reoccurring event. On top of it another event which maybe on the horizon, what may add to the natural calamities, runs concurrent with the above and is another GRAND SOLAR MINIMUM. But it would take too much to go into it here. But details about it may be found on the internet.

All I can say and emphasize is that I wish to be wrong as some of these events may turn out to be quite destructive as some of them already have been. Unfortunately there is not much we can do about it, just prepare best possible, hope for the best and try to stay out of harms way. The question remains, what we are witnessing now here and there around our planet, will these events become even more frequent, severe and wide spread?

One thing is for certain as these events are in the process of unfolding many humans including scientists are under the impression that humans are to blame and have a hand in it, but far from it. Take for example the ever increasing amount of earthquakes and volcanic eruptions world wide, does anyone think that Mother Earth gives a rats rear end what the temperature on the surface is like, either global warming or cooling? I don’t think so, But Mother Nature always does and will continue to do what it feels like and we better get out of the way. Only time will tell how it all will play out.

Maybe we will get lucky and it turns out that this cycle of events may be less destructive than the previous one.
