Quote:1.2 billion Catholics now firmly in the camp of those who say climate change is man-made
Still pushing the agenda that because pope frank...or any other asshole in a dress...says something that catholics fall in line because their fuhrer says so. Tell that to the 80% who invite the church to go fuck itself on contraception.
(Even if, by accident it seems, he finally did get one right.)
This former Catholic agrees. The Pope being on the right side of saying it is man made, is really simply religion attempting to market itself to stay relevant. When you look at the totality of the history of the institution, it is clear that religion only goes with facts when they can use them for PR. This isn't one label doing this, but all religions pull this tactic. When religion cant debunk science, it attempts to co opt it.
This Pope still is head of an institution that frowns on birth control, and abortion, and has been two faced about LGBT telling the west to be "tolerant" while telling parts of Asia that traditional marriage has to be defended. And lets not forget it's history of hiding child molesters.
