The Daily Mail reports that Pope Benedict: “has launched a surprise attack on climate change prophets of doom, warning them that any solutions to global warming must be based on firm evidence and not on dubious ideology.” (See: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/pages/live/articles/news/worldnews.html?in_article_id=501316.)
His remarks will be made in his annual message for World Peace Day on January 1, but they were released as delegates from all over the world convened on the Indonesian holiday island of Bali for UN climate change talks, the Daily Mail explains. (Aside: By the way, I'm not a Catholic, but the Pope’s right. Proposed Global Warming solutions sometimes cause more harm than good. What’s more, sometimes the proposed ‘solutions’ aren’t solutions at all. For example, Bali is currently deforesting their island in order to create more farmland on which to grow their “green” bio-fuels from castor oil plants.)
Pope Benedict also believes that “fears over man-made emissions melting the ice caps and causing a wave of unprecedented disasters were nothing more than scare-mongering.”
“Efforts to protect the environment should seek ‘agreement on a model of sustainable development capable of ensuring the well-being of all while respecting environmental balances’,” according to the Pope.
In the message entitled “The Human Family, A Community of Peace” the Pope says:
“Humanity today is rightly concerned about the ecological balance of tomorrow. It is important for assessments in this regard to be carried out prudently, in dialogue with experts and people of wisdom, uninhibited by ideological pressure to draw hasty conclusions, and above all with the aim of reaching agreement on a model of sustainable development capable of ensuring the well-being of all while respecting environmental balances.
“If the protection of the environment involves costs, they should be justly distributed, taking due account of the different levels of development of various countries and the need for solidarity with future generations.
“Prudence does not mean failing to accept responsibilities and postponing decisions; it means being committed to making joint decisions after pondering responsibly the road to be taken.”
The evangelical environmental movement, which is just as dogmatic in its assumptions as any religion, is merely another manifestation of neo-paganism. They worship the earth and demand sacrifice from one and all to sate their greed.
The Pope also said that the world needed to care for the environment but not to the point where the welfare of animals and plants was given a greater priority than that of mankind. And it's certainly very true that current “global warming” policies hurt the very poor, as “sustainable development” often means cutting off any ability for poorer, less developed nations to economically progress, and thus they stay mired in third-world conditions. The Pope could also be concerned for a possible culling of the human population programs as well. Obviously these tenuous global warming theory and its proposed solutions have a definite anti-human slant.
The Pope isn’t the first Catholic leader to take on this new pagan religion. In October, the Australian Cardinal George Pell, the Archbishop of Sydney, caused an outcry when he noted that the atmospheric temperature of Mars had risen by 0.5 degrees Celsius. “The industrial-military complex up on Mars can't be blamed for that,” he said in a criticism of Australian scientists who had claimed that carbon emissions would force temperatures on earth to rise by almost five degrees by 2070 unless drastic solutions were enforced.
