IS THE POPE ENDORSING ENVIRONMENTAL MOVEMENT?

Some may not be surprised by this one and I can honestly say I'm not all that shocked by it but it is extremely disturbing to see the pope take this kind of stand. Climategate has proven that man-made climate change is unproven. That must necessarily mean that to believe in it is an expression of faith. I'm not sure what the pope's intentions are by coming down on the side of environmentalists but I'm more concerned with what the consequences of such a stance might enable.

REUTERS reported:
Industrialized nations must recognize their responsibility for the environmental crisis, shed their consumerism and embrace more sober lifestyles, Pope Benedict said on Tuesday.

The pope's call for more environmental commitments came in his message for the Roman Catholic Church's annual World Day of Peace, to be marked on Jan 1 and whose theme is "If You Want to Cultivate Peace, Protect Creation."
Later on in the article....
While saying that developing countries "are not exempt from their own responsibilities with regard to creation," and had a duty to gradually adopt effective environmental measures, the bulk of his criticism was aimed at rich nations.
Or how about this direct quote from the Pope:
"This means that technologically advanced societies must be prepared to encourage more sober lifestyles, while reducing their energy consumption and improving its efficiency."
Again, placing intent aside, the Pope is providing ammunition for Environmental Whack jobs who believe in a global government and population control, which is being bandied about in COPENHAGEN. Like it or not, the words used by the Pope can easily be quoted by the likes of Obama's Science czar, John Holdren who, in addition to being on board with man-made climate change has expressed support for forced abortions and other extremely DESPICABLE THINGS.

If the data on man-made climate change is compromised and proven to have been manipulated, it therefore must necessarily mean that believing in it is an act of faith. The fact that the pope is enabling this kind of faith in an unproven science is disturbing. Remember, I said "enable" and not "sanction". Again, the consequences of the pope's words are what bother me here, not the intent behind them, which are unknown to me anyway. His language is more easily championed by the eco-wackos than it is those who know that the man-made climate change movement is a fraud.

Genesis 1:28
And God blessed them and said to them, Be fruitful, multiply, and fill the earth, and subdue it [using all its vast resources in the service of God and man]; and have dominion over the fish of the sea, the birds of the air, and over every living creature that moves upon the earth.
It would seem to me, in light of climategate, that the aforementioned passage is a bit more warranted.

Very, very troubling.
