Rowan Williams: climate pantalone

Mark Tooley’s remarks on Rowan’s Copenhagen performance:

Church prelates at Copenhagen like Rowan Williams and Desmond Tutu spread climate fears, tiresomely echoing secular European conventional environmentalism.

Harsh prophecies of climate catastrophe need to be weighed against the impact on still-developing nations. Environmental fears should not excuse perpetuating poverty.

The primary religion on display at the Copenhagen summit often resembled Earth worship. Christians are called to guard God’s creation while not deifying the Earth or prioritizing nature over humanity.

Whether waving hammer-and-sickle flags or calling for a worldwide one-child policy of strict population control, many activists in Copenhagen seemed more self-absorbed than actually concerned about helping the poor.

Archbishop Williams professed to witness to God’s hope, but once there, he merely echoed secular rants about endless environmental degradation.

I put it down to the fact that Rowan comes from Swansea. I attended university in Swansea and the weather was consistently dreadful: I remember it snowed in June once – it really did. Rowan is trying to Swansify the rest of the world.

One thought on “Rowan Williams: climate pantalone

  1. Just wait. The tide will turn and the church will be left holding the bag for centuries to come as the instigators of the climate warming fraud. Kind of reminds me of Copernicus and Galileo. Never mind that most of the scientific world of the time stood against them, once the church was convinced to take a stand, the scientific community had a perfect scapegoat should the “settled science” reverse itself.
