It appears that the nominal Pope's latest encyclical will have nothing to do with the mission of the Church or its founder, which is to preserve man's soul from a fallen world and to speak truth to power. No, this "Pope" is issuing a clarion call to enslave and degrade man with global government so as to preserve the world, linking arms with the powerful to enforce the philosophical and empirical lies of modern environmentalism.
Is it any wonder that the Church's membership (and that of all Christian denominations) is shrinking? People go to church as a refuge from the world, to return "home" for a moment to remember what is eternal and unshakeable in the face of the world's lies and injustice. Yet modern Christian churches offer no refuge from the world, rather an echo chamber for it -- political correctness, equal opportunity priesthood and ministry, military pageantry, celebration of unrepentant sin, and now paganism.There is no reason to go to church when all you find within is what already bedevils you without.
But the good news is that this insane era we live in forces everyone to choose. You can no longer coast on the efforts of your ancestors or the institutions they built. Both church and state are putrid now, so you must either identify with them and make yourself putrid, or stand apart and build something new, virtuous, and enduring for your descendants.
