Pope Francis: Global Warming Is ‘Consequence of Human Activity’

[IsailedawayfromFR]

Pope Francis took a strong stand on anthropogenic climate change Monday, telling a gathering of diplomats in the Vatican that global warming is a result of human action.
We must not “downplay the importance of our own responsibility in interaction with nature,” Francis told the Diplomatic Corps accredited to the Holy See. “Climate changes, with the global rise in temperatures and their devastating effects, are also a consequence of human activity.”

In his statement, Pope Francis went beyond earlier declarations that seemed to exclude the Church taking a formal stand on questions of climate science.

In his 2015 teaching letter on the environment, Laudato Si, the Pope explicitly declared that “the Church does not presume to settle scientific questions or to replace politics.”

Ok, Francis.  Where do you get this stuff but from the enviro-wacko websites?

This guy is singlehandedly destroying the stature of a prestigious head of state and a religion.

Lighten up, Bergoglio!

This coming from the head of a religion that used to insist that Earth was the Center of the Universe, and killed anyone who disagreed.

Well since that's the case Frank, why don't you save the planet and kill yourself. The balance of the world depends on it.
