So most religious politicians pick and mix their supposed "divine" beliefs to back up their preconceived thoughts. Who'd have thunk it?
(And yes lefty religionists do this as well. It's a two way street. Still intensely amusing to see people like Sicoko Santorum suddenly lose his pious warbling when it comes in conflict with the donors)
Faith in climate change is not a doctrine of the Roman Catholic Church. If Francis publicly proclaimed his preference for Pepsi over Coca-Cola, Catholics would not be obliged to drink it.
But here's the thing. Frannie isn't just saying "oh it would be super nice if we built some solar panels
" - he's making it out that Catholics have a moral imperative to fight Climate Change.
What makes that different from previous Catholic indictments to fight the scourge of abortion, which Jeb and Rick so stridently support?
