By Phil Lawler

As he celebrated the newly released Mass for the Care of Creation yesterday, Pope Leo XIV encouraged prayers “for the conversion of many people, both inside and outside the Church, who still do not recognize the urgency of caring for our common home.”

We all stand in constant need of conversion. But conversion to what? If the Holy Father meant that we should all learn greater respect for the wonders of God’s creation, good Christians can quickly join in the prayers. But if he meant that all men and women should be “converted” to belief in the reality of man-made climate change, his appeal raises serious questions.

Unfortunately there is good reason to believe that Pope Leo was praying for “conversion” of the latter sort. In the same homily he called attention to recent natural disasters and the human suffering they caused, and said that these disasters are “often caused—at least in part—by human excess and our way of life.” That is not a statement of faith but an assertion of fact; it is either accurate or inaccurate.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

Jesus:  Give unto Caesar that which is Caesar's and unto God that which is God's.

Pope Leo: Not so quick there, Jesus.

Climate change = real, but not caused by Man alone
De-carbonization = nonsense

Have Al Gore and John Kerry ever been right about anything?

... this is what you get when you elect a White Sox fan as Pope.
