Well, we’ve officially entered the Church of Climate Change. Pope Leo XIV, in a moment so bizarre it would’ve made medieval alchemists do a double take, just blessed a block of ice. No, not metaphorically. A literal hunk of melting glacier from Greenland sat on stage in Rome while the pope waved his hands and delivered a full-on invocation at a so-called “Climate Justice” conference. This wasn’t a private prayer or symbolic gesture tucked into a larger event. This was the moment.
You’d think the Vatican had turned into a TED Talk hosted by Greta Thunberg.
The Pope, speaking to roughly 1,000 activists and eco-warriors, declared, “We will raise hope by demanding that leaders act with courage, not delay. Will you join with us?” All while standing next to a glorified ice cube and a few tropical ferns. Apparently, this is what the Vatican thinks inspires a global moral awakening in 2025.
Pope Leo XIV has clearly decided to pick up where Pope Francis left off with Laudato Si, that 2015 environmental encyclical which somehow turned Catholicism into a subsidiary of the UN Climate Office. Leo took aim at people who “ridicule those who speak of global warming.” Translation: if you think for yourself and don’t worship at the altar of climate hysteria, you’re not just a skeptic, you’re a heretic.
And of course, President Trump got dragged into it — because what climate sermon would be complete without blaming the one world leader with the backbone to call this nonsense what it is: a con job. Trump has been crystal clear for years: climate change is the Trojan horse for global socialism. The so-called green agenda isn’t about the Earth. It’s about control, wealth redistribution, and punishing industrial nations like the United States while giving China and India a free pass.
But Leo wasn’t having it. He doubled down, saying that ignoring climate change is akin to “despising God’s creatures” and that Christians can’t call themselves followers of Jesus without going full eco-warrior.
Because blessing glaciers while Europe’s churches sit empty isn’t exactly a revival. It’s a sideshow.
