    So the Pope says AGW must be dealt with, while ignoring the fundamental reason

    It's commendable that the Pope enters the AGW debate, but sad that he also seems to ignore the most fundamental reason of all, for which the Catholic church has major responsibility.

    Pope Francis - Time's Person of the Year

    It was just announced this morning. http://poy.time.com/2013/12/11/pope-francis-the-choice/ As an atheist myself, I like this pope more than his predecessors, and I don't understand where all the negativity comes from. He is at least trying to move in the right direction by focusing more on...

    Catholics must now be gay....or tolerant
