Development and Peace: A Cancer in the Church that Needs to be Excised.

This morning, I nearly stormed out of the church. They had allowed a presentation by the organization known as Development & Peace which partners with organizations that promote abortion, birth control, and radical environmentalism, all of which go against official church teaching.

We all know about their unholy alliances with pro-abortion groups, but this year it went much further. It was a 7 minute spiel about global warming and environmentalism. Pure political propaganda cloaked with a veneer of "christianese" words tossed in. If not for the fact that, after confession this morning, I was warned these people were going to speak ,and that I prayed for self control, I most certainly would have gotten up and walked out and possibly given them a piece of my mind. I know some other people who did.

I watched in sadness as many fellow parishoners heeded their call to sign "solidarity cards" and gave donations, knowing that this would only delay the day when D&P would have to re-evaluate its relationships with such groups that work against the church.

Don't these people know that it is impossible to ally oneself with the anti-global warming crowd and the people who go along with it. The D&P activists themeselves cannot be unaware, given the fact that D&Ps alliannces have been exposed that they are sending a contradictory message to the people when they turn a blind eye to church teaching? To subscribe to the heresy of anthropogenic global warming is to agree, eventually to throw the church teachings on contraception, abortion and marriage under the bus in the name of "social justice".
If anyone needs an explanation as to why the Global Warming/Green Movement and Christian Catholic teaching are completely incompatible (to put it politely) watch the following Video:

I took the step of asking my priest to please forward the above video on the global warming movement to the Bishop, in the hope that he will join the fight to reform D&P, whose aims are worthwhile, but whose alliances are undermining the church they represent
