"STRIVE to enter by the Narrow Gate" (Lk. 13:24) “the gate not used by souls whose twisted love attempts to make the crooked way seem straight.” (Purgatorio, 10.1-3)

Pope Francis Challenges Liberals and Conservatives on Nature
Now that the dust has settled a bit on our Holy Father's latest encyclical, Laudato Sí, I think it might be time to take another look at this great document. People, many non-Catholic, on both "the left" and "the right" have attempted to view the encyclical through a binary, political lens, but reading the beginning of the document carefully provides a hermeneutical key which Catholics can use to see the "environmentalist" debate in an entirely new light. I look more closely at this key in my latest for Catholic365.com.
This is why the Catholic Church doesn't belong nor does not attach itself to any ideology made by man. It simply proclaims the Truth. :)
