Pope Francis is always certain, especially in areas where he is bone ignorant.
PopeWatch: Very Fallible

Cradle Catholic. Active in the pro-life movement since 1973. Father of three, one in Heaven, and happily married for 41 years. Small town lawyer and amateur historian. Former president of the board of directors of the local crisis pregnancy center for a decade.
“Engineer” – one who questions, is skeptical of scientific fads, suspicious of statistics and experts, trusts but always verifies, and has little time or patience with complete ignorance -especially if it is willful and performative.
Alas, unlike his predecessors, PF doesn’t know anything about science, or have advisors who are knowledgeable.
Well it would give peace of mind to the Faithful knowing that the Pope minimised the errors in his teachings and words. I mean, if you had a CEO who constantly made a bungle of situations, gave his personal spin on topics, was unpredictable in his delivery and talked without thinking they would be fired.
StJP2 and Pope Benedict, although not perfect, did carry out their role with the professionalism God expected of them.
When you have a consensus among scientists w no dissent- you have propaganda.
It would be nice if he told the truth and just said this is only way we can have communism
Yes, the climate is changing. It’s clear today. Yesterday it rained.
These Screaming Mimis continue with their unending assault on all of the rest of us. Just. Shut. Up. They clearly deserve at least the 8th circle of hell and they’re teetering on the 9th circle…
Think I’ll go outside and touch grass…
So, like, in this interview did he speak the words, “Jesus Christ” or “Catholic Church”?
Asking for a friend.
Of course climate change is obvious. It happens continually and has done so for centuries. Average temperatures and rainfall fluctuate throughout the world and certain trends develop over time (such as the Medieval Warm Period, when it was warm enough in Greenland to plant vineyards, and the Little Ice Age of the 15th-19th centuries).
What is NOT obvious is that 1) climate change is solely or primarily due to human activity such as carbon emissions rather than natural cycles or causes, and 2) it is a life-threatening catastrophe that can only be averted by immediate and massive government intervention to shut down the fossil fuel industry, rather than something that humanity can readily adapt to.
The job of Communists is to spread lies and propaganda throughout the world, so that all peoples must become controlled. The job of the Pope is to spread God’s truth throughout the world that all peoples may become free from control of the Godless.
I will say it again – if that heretical Marxist Peronist Caudillo occupying the Seat of Saint Peter really believed in the fiction of anthropogenic global warming, then he would advocate fossil to nuclear conversion ASAP. He doesn’t, so it’s all Kabuki theater. B as in Bu11 and S as in $hit. That man is worthless and useless except to the demonic left.
Once again:
GO NUCLEAR! Safe enough for a 19 year old sailor as I once was to operate a live reactor at 800 feet beneath the surface of the ocean.
“Climate change exists.”
Um, yes. To the extent that differing areas of the Midwest have been the locations of inland seas and ice sheets, depending on the Age. These do not happen except by climate change. ..Further natural science also indicates both of these conditions occurred before Man walked Earth.
Could it be that Francis primarily believes in change. Climate, moral, liturgical.
Maybe that’s why we who believe that God is the same yesterday today and tomorrow have a hard time seeing eye to eye with him …
