Al Gore was in the news again Friday at the South by Southwest Conference pushing the cause for which he’s become synonymous: mankind is killing the weather.

“We need to put a price on carbon to accelerate these market trends,” Gore said, referring to a proposed federal cap-and-trade system that would penalize companies that exceeded their carbon-emission limits. “And in order to do that, we need to put a price on denial in politics.”

The Climate Change movement is only about one thing; force.  It’s a worldwide protection racket and the new FrancisVatican is 100% in compliance.  What’s more edifying than the most trusted name in religion selling an Al Gore-sized scam?

I’ll never forget the 2000 election.  Gore got all pumped up with muscles, then leaned all over George Bush during the debates, huffing and puffing and making quite the oaf of himself.  He couldn’t stand at the podium and be silent like a gentleman while his opponent responded.  He didn’t have it in him.

Next he threw a nationwide fit over the inability to inject quite enough fraud into the election to grab it.

Gore, who has made climate change an overriding theme since he lost to George W. Bush in the 2000 presidential election, made no mention of his political future. He took several questions from Twitter after his talk. None asked whether he was considering another run for the White House.

He said he hoped his third SXSW appearance would help promote the fight against climate change and to help put pressure on those who say it’s not a problem.

“We have this denial industry cranked up constantly,” Gore said. “In addition to 99 percent of the scientists and all the professional scientific organizations, now Mother Nature is weighing in.”

It’s really quite astounding how ever more preposterous things become doctrine in our television era.  Gay people are parents, gender is chosen, ISIS isn’t Islamic, climate change causes a crisis of inequality…and now it also causes terrorism.

He led a presentation on major weather events that he said could be attributed to human activity. He linked troubles in the Middle East at least partially to climate change, saying that drought drove more than a million Syrian refugees into cities already crowded with refugees from the Iraq war.

At one point, Gore’s presentation showed a slide of Pope Francis. “How about this Pope?” Gore said.

Cardinal Peter Turkson, a Vatican official who helped draft the Pope’s anticipated encyclical on the environment, said recently that the planet was getting warmer and that Christians needed to address the problem. Gore said he looks forward to release of the Pope’s document, expected in June or July.

“I’m not a Catholic,” Gore said, “but I could be persuaded to become one.”

Great.  That must be the New Evangelization.  Talk about hitting a periphery!

Now let’s see if it can get him to bend and kneel for something that’s not money.

 

 

Rorate Caeli reports in the translated story,

The priest and former Nicaraguan foreign secretary Miguel D´Escoto Brockmann said tday [Tuesday] that Cuban leader Fidel Castro is a chosen man of God to convey the message of the Holy Spirit in Latin America.

The Vatican may silence everyone, then God will make the stones speak, and may the stones spread his message, but He didn’t do this, He chose the greatest Latin-American of all time: Fidel Castro,” the religious, 81 years old, declared today to Channel 4 in the local [Nicaraguan] television.

On the day after the Vatican announced they’d lifted the suspension applied by Pope John Paul II, Fr. added,

It is through Fidel Castro that the Holy Spirit sends us the message. This message of Jesus, of the need to struggle to establish, firmly and irreversibly, the kingdom of God on this earth, which is his alternative to the empire.

The Prophet

Furious English blogger, Mundabor makes this concise statement in response to the news of rehabilitated Sandinista priest, Fr. Miguel D’Escoto Brockmann:

“This is a priest in good standing, according to Pope Francis. The FFI is still persecuted, one of its founders still kept in seclusion and slandered.”

Francis Reinstates JPII’s Liberation Theologist Sandinista

For eleven years California native, suspended Fr. D’Escoto was foreign minister for Nicaragua’s socialist Ortega government where he lent his influence to communists and terrorists around the world praising the likes of Fidel Castro.

In his young pontificate, Pope Francis has begun to rehabilitate radical Latin American priests. He invited Liberation Theology founder Gustavo Guttierrez to meet with him in Rome and now has revived the priestly faculties of a priest who called Ronald Reagan a butcher.

Capitalism is not our way, the Way of the Gospel Must Prevail!

Today’s Vatican is worried that religious are living in ignorance of economic realities. “Gratuity, fraternity and justice” are the basic principles essential to “an evangelical economy of sharing and communion,” said Prefect of Congregation for Institutes of Consecrated Life and Societies of Apostolic Life, Cardinal Joao Braz de Aviz.

Catholic News Service is reporting that the Cardinal and Secretary published a circular letter on the use of financial resources by religious orders, telling the communities they must “adopt modern budgeting and bookkeeping practices and ensure their expenditures are for ministries in line with their founding purpose and the good of the whole church.” They recommend getting professional outside audits of their books.

The letter also explains,

Because the most pressing needs of the Church and society may change over time, every order must “define which works and activities to pursue, which to eliminate or modify” and what new areas of ministry they should try to develop.

Delegating and disseminating financial information will help to “verify the real degree of personal and communal poverty” in the order, the letter says. The Cardinal then warns against ‘capitalism’ telling religious orders around the world that, “We live in a culture that considers capitalism to be the law that governs the use of money,” he said. “For religious, it should not be this way. It is the Gospel that must prevail.”

 

We want a professional outside audit and a proposal to revamp your ministries.

Iraqi Patriarch Speaks the Truth

Iraqi Patriarch Sako has asked Pope Francis to encourage world powers to stop providing economic aid and military partnerships to Islamists. The Iraqi Christians, after years of American involvement, are left completely without powerful support.

Asia News reports, “These “powers”, which Mar Sako does not mention directly, should ” vigorously exercise their pressure” on those who provide “economic support” and entertain “military ties” with the Islamists. The objective is to “cut the roots of violence and radicalisation.”

“His Beatitude notes that Iraqi Christians have a “vital need for emergency humanitarian aid” as well as “real, effective and permanent protection.”

He will be beheaded because he is Kaffir

“He will be beheaded because he is Kaffir, non-Muslim, sided [with] the government and was not praying at all. Everyone like him will have the same end, beheading.” Those are the words of a Syrian Islamist who sawed off the head of a man after forcing him to “deny his faith and salute Mohammed as “the messenger of God.” The Christian Post reports, “The incident was caught on video for the world to see and broadcast as a warning to “everyone like him.”

Rainbow Sash Joins the Bishops

The Catholic dissident Rainbow Sash Movement is announcing, “Attempts to work with the Catholic Bishops where we can should be attempted, as long as they do not single out LGBT families for condemnation when it concerns immigration policy.” The group is urging common cause in condemning Republicans for their ‘fear-mongering directed at innocent children.’

The Rainbow Sash wire reads, “This is a pro life issue. Since Pope Francis has become Pope he is making the social gospel equivalent to poverty relief, conflict resolution, human trafficking, and the environment, as well as immigrant rights.”

Fr. Bernard Adura of the Pontifical Council of Sciences has been tasked with honoring the centennial of the death of Pope St. Pius X through research, teaching, and perhaps some revision?  Apparently history has neglected the pope’s true legacy.  “He was remembered as a Pope of condemnation, but, instead was truly a great reformer, a great innovator. Yes, he condemned modernism, but he, in fact, was very modern.”  When asked if he found any similarities between Pope Pius X and Francis, Fr. Adura responded, “There are. There absolutely are,” even claiming that they look alike.

Gates of Vienna is reporting that the Pope’s Peace-Prayer event in the Vatican Gardens included an Islamic prayer calling for ‘victory over infidels‘.  An Arabic-speaking ex-Muslim blogger claims that the segment has been edited from the official Vatican tape.

**********************

Pope Francis revealed that his Peace-Prayer event in Rome had almost no support in the Vatican.  Less that 1% agreed with him at first but that figure began to grow when they realized he was going through with it.

Reporting on the USCCB Meeting in New Orleans, the New York times suggests the bishops are following Francis by being more humble.  NOLA Bishop Gregory Aymond recommends that they continue to talk more about the poor, the economy, and maybe reach out to those with disabilities.
