Climate change is more deadly than abortion?

One of the most disturbing appointments to the College of Cardinals Pope Francis has made, among many, is the elevation of Robert McElroy of San Diego. Among the many horrible, virtually un-Catholic positions the recent cardinal has enunciated is one that has to do with the preposterous position that climate change is so bad that it actually claims more lives around the world each year than abortion.

For the record, according to the Guttmacher Institute, there are 73 million abortions worldwide every year. So where Cdl. McElroy is getting his number that more than 73 million people die every year from changes in the weather is a little dumbfounding — likely because it's not true.

McElroy is notorious for skirting Church teaching in the area of sexual morality and has deemed it a worthy cause to promote "social justice" as more important than individual justice and charity.

Among his chief bothers is the constant change in the atmosphere that most normal people simply call "the weather." For the bad cardinal, changing weather must be stopped and prevented in the future at all costs.

He, like Pope Francis, goes on to ascribe these atmospheric changes not to the normal course of the world's changing environment, but specifically to man, especially America. Mean old bad nasty America.

He completely disregards hard scientific facts like increased volcanic activity on the ocean floor causing rising sea temps. For him, solar flares are nowhere near as much of a threat as driving your nonelectric vehicle is. But hey, don't confuse the cardinal with actual science. That's because the actual science simply explodes his world of substitute morality, where man and the earth are elevated over God, where the two greatest commandments are switched.

When that happens, the door is open to all sorts of shenanigans. And McElroy is one of the leading proponents of all this.

In truth, he and his kind hate the Church, and they hate America, at least as we have traditionally understood the nation, because, with all its many flaws, a free America at least gives the opportunity for the Faith to thrive. In a communist state, or one approaching it, the Faith is much more easily suffocated.
