George Neumayr’s fine column this a.m. about Pope Francis’s environmental obsessions once again underlines how much more this ostensible religious leader is interested in secular left politics than in salvation. There’s hardly a left-wing phantasm that Francis has not suggested is written on the heart of man by the finger of God. He takes ecumenism to about the 10thdecimal place, making the faithful wonder if he is just a “defender of faith” rather than the traditional role of “defender of the faith.” All of this is why so many are now asking if the current pope is Catholic, or just catholic.
