Articles labeled: global warming

A bishop in the United Kingdom stated that those denying global warming are just as bad as Josef Fritzl, the man who kept his daughter locked in the cellar for 24 years. Hey, Bishop, go back to making with the Eucharist, eh?

The Bishop of Stafford, the Right Rev. Gordon Mursell, made the comparison in a parish “pastoral” newsletter and said that people who fail to act to prevent global warming are “as guilty as” Fritzl and “destroying the future of our children,” the Times of London reported Monday.

The bishop denied Monday that he was accusing those who ignore climate change of being child abusers, but said Fritzl was “the most extreme form” of a common selfish streak in humankind.

“In fact you could argue that, by our refusal to face the truth about climate change, we are as guilty as he is — we are in effect locking our children and grandchildren into a world with no future and throwing away the key,” he wrote in the letter entitled “following our dream,” distributed around the Diocese of Lichfield.

Well, we’ll never know if her would be child could have been resposible for inventing a way to diminish polluting gases or reduce global warming.

The real question, isn’t she and her boyfriend still creating pollution??? Why is her polluting body any more important than anybody’s elses? Even if she’s careful, she is still polluting the planet in some way or another.

Whatever…

Had Toni Vernelli gone ahead with her pregnancy ten years ago, she would know at first hand what it is like to cradle her own baby, to have a pair of innocent eyes gazing up at her with unconditional love, to feel a little hand slipping into hers - and a voice calling her Mummy.

But the very thought makes her shudder with horror.

Because when Toni terminated her pregnancy, she did so in the firm belief she was helping to save the planet.
