the abbott has spoken in a debate that is not a debate... may god hit him in the debatables.....

BEFORE WE EMBARK ON SILLY TONY'S VIEWS ON GLOBAL WARMING WE MAKE A DETOUR BY HIS GENUINE ADMIRATION FOR A DEFENDER OF PEDERAST PRIESTS.... I MEAN YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN...

 

And Hell’s Pells, Tony Abbott, what an amazing man!

From making a knight of a prince, to seeking sainthood for another, Tony never misses an opportunity to sweetly surprise us.

The syrupy gushings about Pell from the Abbott, were indeed lovely and poetic:

“So I will hold on to him in my heart,

from love of a friend and mentor,

and as a gentle child for virtues sought but not yet attained.”

Lord Byron would have been moved.

“And in these times, when it’s more needful than ever,

to fight the good fight,

to stay the course and to keep the faith,

it’s surely now for the Australian church

to trumpet the cause of its greatest champion.”

Not satisfied with this, he went on to demonstrate his vision for a new church where Pell could be enshrined forever.

“There should be Pell study courses,

Pell spirituality courses,

Pell lectures,

Pell high schools,

and Pell university colleges.

Just as there are for the other saints.”

“If we can direct our prayers to Mother Teresa,

Thomas Becket and St Augustine, why not the late Cardinal too,

who has been just as pleasing to God, I’m sure,

and has the added virtue of being the very best of us?

“May God bless him.”

May God bless him indeed.

 And the mourners cheered in a respectful way. 

Thank heavens I am not a psychologist, because I fear I would read too much into this. Yet it did make me think quite deeply. What sort of saint would this Pell that Abbott venerated so well make? I’m sure he would be the silent kind. Very silent. St George Pell, Patron Saint of the Silent kind

Silent saints reflect the need the traditional church has for silent reflection and even silent obedience, and sometimes, just silence. Sorry, I need another word than “just”.

If the claims of one former student, we shall call The Artist, are to be believed, St John’s College at Sydney University made a meal of Silence in 1985. That was the year that the 18-year-old artist and another gay boy were viciously hazed by unknown, or unnamed assailants. They were lucky if not blessed not to have died from the experience, his story claims.

Silence could have well kept the secret except for the courageous and creative labours of the survivor artist whose work is displayed currently on a Facebook page called “Silentium” (Latin for Silence). The page retells the story through an Archbishop of Sydney’s Mitre (non-religious might refer to it as the funny hats of princes of the church), embroidered especially through many hundreds, if not thousands of hours of minute detail and labour.

Through comments The Artist has placed on various photographs of the Mitre a horrible story is told. It relates that blindfolded and stripped naked the two 18-year-old boys were abused and raped in various ways and finally taken for a three-hour drive in the boot of a car to be dumped naked in a ditch in the middle of the night in a New South Wales national park.

This of course was simply “hazing”. Look it up in the dictionary. Something practiced in various colleges and schools at different times through history – and in military barracks too. A way to demonstrate power. To create fear. To change behaviour, the victim’s behaviour and demonstrate the false machismo of the offenders.

BUT BACK TO GENUINE SCIENCES ALLA NIGEL LAWSON....

 

All of us want to save the only planet we have but this should not be by means which impoverish poorer people in richer countries and hold poorer countries back,” he said.

“Right now, in countries like Australia, the impact of climate policy is to make electricity less affordable and less reliable rather than perceptibly to cool the planet.”

Experts have consistently rejected the argument that climate policy has caused electricity prices to rise, instead pointing to the war in Ukraine and the high price of gas.

Abbott added: “We need more genuine science and less groupthink in this debate – that’s where the GWPF has been a commendably consistent if lonely voice.”

Dr Jerome Booth, the foundation’s chairman, said Abbott brings “a global perspective and policy insight at the very highest level” and he would help the group “to foster a culture of debate, respect and scrutiny in policy areas that are currently dominated by intolerance, high emotions, moral reasoning and confusion”.

Abbott is currently an adviser to the UK government’s Board of Trade. His name was raised last month as a possible replacement for the late senator Jim Molan in the upper house.

During his prime ministership between 2013 and 2015, Abbott drove to dismantle much of the country’s public policy architecture on climate change, successfully repealing a legislated price on carbon, defunding the independent Climate Commission but failing to dismantle the Climate Change Authority and the Australian Renewable Energy Agency.

In 2017, he flew to London to deliver the GWPF’s annual lecture, where he suggested natural factors could be to blame for global warming, that CO2 was a trace gas and hinted at a global conspiracy to tamper with temperature data to make global heating seem worse.

The foundation is seen as influential among some conservatives. Conservative MP Steve Baker resigned as a GWPF trustee when he became minister for Northern Ireland.

A group of Conservative MPs and peers – several with links to the foundation – have formed the Net Zero Scrutiny Group, which has used the GWPF’s work as part of its advocacy.

The GWPF’s non-charitable arm – the Global Warming Policy Forum – runs a project called Net Zero Watch, which claims to scrutinise climate and decarbonisation policies.

HERE ARE A COUPLE OF VIEWS ON THE CARDINAL GEORGE PELL. FOR WHAT IT'S WORTH, GUS LEONISKY IS A RABID ATHEIST DOING CARTOONS (AND A MILLION OTHER THINGS) SINCE 1951. SEX AND GLOBAL WARMING ARE TWO OF MANY IMPORTANT SUBJECTS OF HUMANITY. SEX FOR PLEASURE IS A CATHOLIC FORBIDDEN FRUIT, LIKE KILLING OUR FELLOW HUMANS. FIRST BURNING FOSSIL FUEL FOR PLEASURE:

 

BY Michael Pascoe

 

There is no evidence that George Pell ever advocated the burning of those he considered heretics, but then again, he was a traditionalist and very much a man of another century.

Which century is moot, though the 17th would have been a good fit given Cardinal Pell’s most demonstrable area of pig-headed ignorance – his unrepentant climate denialism.

The passion he devoted to promoting carbon dioxide and criticising “neo-Marxist” environmental “cultists” would have been right at home in hauling Galileo before the Roman Inquisition, banning his book and forcing him to deny the Earth revolved around the Sun – clearly heresy.

Such is hardcore “conservatism” in any century.

And Cardinal Pell remained hard at putting his idea of faith ahead of science right to the end, not just in cowardly anonymous “memos” but under his own name in the conservative comic, The Spectator, which in Australia outbids the Murdochs’ The Australian as the home of ongoing climate denialism and the loonier end of the right-wing’s culture war.

While attacking the Catholic Synod of Bishops as a “toxic nightmare”, Cardinal Pell – Tony Abbott’s nomination for sainthood – included:

“The two final synods in Rome in 2023 and ’24 will need to clarify their teaching on moral matters, as the Relator (chief writer and manager) Cardinal Jean-Claude Hollerich has publicly rejected the basic teachings of the Church on sexuality, on the grounds that they contradict modern science.”

Ah, modern science – the work of the devil, to be sure.

AND NOW THE OLD BOY, GEORGE PELL TELLS US ABOUT SEX FOR FUN, AS TOLD TO US BY John Hirschauer

John Hirschauer is assistant editor of The American Conservative. He is a 2022-23 Robert Novak Journalism Fellow at The Fund for American Studies, and was previously a William F. Buckley Jr. Fellow at National Review and a staff writer at RealClear:

 

When Paul VI, the Pope, put out the encyclical Humanae vitae, he said that the widespread use of the pill would bring about a deterioration of moral standards. We've seen that. Increased divorces, increased abortions, increased numbers of homeless children, increased number of one-parent families, the government has got an enormous bill in looking after all this. And this is related to the separation of sex from marriage, it is related to the demand for instant gratification.

 

That is truer today than it was then, and Veritatis splendor will look more even prescient in a century than it does today. It proposed that Catholics strive after perfection and fall back on God's mercy when they fail, rather calling good evil and evil good. It fulfilled what Pell called the two tasks of Christian religion: "to set norms, ideals" and "to cope with human weakness."

"We're all weak," Pell said. "And while the Church sets out these norms, we also preach the universality of God's forgiveness if we're sorry. No sin erases God's mercy."
