The Pope condemns the climate change prophets of doom (Al Gore, global warming, solutions)

[Greatday]

Pope Benedict XVI has launched a surprise attack on climate change prophets of doom, warning them that any solutions to global warming must be based on firm evidence and not on dubious ideology.

The leader of more than a billion Roman Catholics suggested that fears over man-made emissions melting the ice caps and causing a wave of unprecedented disasters were nothing more than scare-mongering.

Am I the only one who finds the irony in the POPE condemning policy made on "dubious ideology" and "fearmongering"?

Ah, the true arbiters of scientific theory.

It only took the Vatican HOW many centuries to realize Galileo was right?

Wow, Al Gore and the Pope have a lot more in common than I thought!
