Pope Francis: Causing Climate Change = Sin
Of the 3734 blog posts I’ve written here since 2GreenEnergy’s inception in 2009, only a few contain references to religion. This is not an accident. I figure I alienate enough people with my condemnation of the fossil fuels industries, the war mongers, the corrupt politicians, and the far right wing generally; I see no need to expand this list even further. But here’s something that I find really noteworthy, and unequivocally positive: Pope Francis is obviously an extremely intelligent man with a sincere passion for many humanistic and environmental causes—and he’s not exactly a wallflower in terms of voicing his viewpoints.
He sure didn’t mince words here, where he points out that causing global climate change is a sin. To those of us outside the Catholic Church, this statement may seem self-evident, but let’s give credit where credit is due. Nice going, Your Holiness!
