Frankly, your Holiness …

… I don't give a damn what you have to say on this matter, but I assume you will be traveling to my city later this year via sail boat: Pope Francis warns of destruction of Earth's ecosystem in leaked encyclical | Environment | The Guardian.



Insofar as the Pontiff is telling us that we have an obligation as stewards of the environment, he isn't saying anything I didn't l;earn from Catholic social teaching throughout my Catholic education. Insofar as he is just parroting European bien-pensant thinking, he's entitled to think what he wants — and so am I. And I think I'm better informed than he is.
