Pope¡¯s encyclical Laudato Si¡¯(2015. 6. 18)


Q  In 2015, you very shortly criticized Pope¡¯s encyclical Laudato Si¡¯(2015. 6. 18) in your sermon. The pope lays out the argument for a new partnership between science and religion to combat human-driven climate change. He calls for a cultural revolution.....


1) What¡¯s wrong in it?
2) What¡¯s the Catholic Church's original teaching on ecology and climate change?

  

A: I am not going to argue on whether or not there is a climate change – this is not the real problem. The main problem is that such goal is an earthly goal. But the very purpose of the Church is to continue the mission of our Lord, which is NOT for an earthly goal: He came ¡°to save His people from their sins¡± (Mat. 1:21)


One day, there came to Jesus a person who asked Him to be help him in his conflict with his brother: ¡°Master, tell my brother to divide the inheritance with me!¡± And our Lord answered him: ¡°Man, who established me divisor above you?¡± (Lk. 12:13-14) On the one hand, He did not come to divide people, but rather to unite them; but also, the concern of that man was an earthly concern – even if it was a just one – and our Lord did not come for that. Our Lord continues and warns against avarice, love of money (even legitimate one, as a legitimate inheritance).


 We touch here perhaps the very core of the crisis of the Church. The Church preaches the Kingdom of Heaven; her first purpose is the salvation of souls; she wants to give to all men these SPIRITUAL treasures, the knowledge of God by the true Faith, the love of God by the charity of the Holy Ghost, the true worship and all virtues that flow from sanctifying grace; and the greatest spiritual treasure that the Church gives to men is in fact God Himself, especially in the Holy Eucharist, true foretaste of Heaven.

 
Now, out of the abundance of the charity of the Heart of Christ, the Church also takes care of a lot of earthly miseries, because she has the compassionate heart of a mother: she takes care of the poor (e.g. the Little Sisters of the Poor, the Sisters of Charity, and even Mother Theresa¡¯s sisters,¡¦), she takes care of the sick (there were many orders of nursing sisters, especially in the missions, nursing for free all kinds of miseries, to the point that in some countries nurses are called ¡°sisters¡±), she takes care of the ignorant (many teaching orders, from the great ones such as the Jesuit teaching in universities, the first universities were Church universities in the middle Ages, to the many Salesian schools, Christian Brothers, Sisters of Mercy, Dominican schools, etc., etc., etc.) and there are many other kinds of miseries that the Church addressed (e.g. there were orders of nuns even to take care of penitent prostitutes!, or to take care of deformed babies with admirable patience and dedication¡¦). Why all this? Because after the First Commandment which was ¡°to love the Lord thy God with thy whole heart, with thy whole soul, with thy whole mind and with thy whole strength¡±, there was the second commandment which was inseparable from the first: ¡°love thy neighbour as thyself.¡± (Mt. 22:37-39, MK 12:30.31, etc.)

 
If one looks at the situation under Pope Pius XII, these good works of the Church were truly developed to an admirable point, with her innumerable schools, orphanages, missions, and other good works.

 
Now there were men who admired the secondary purpose of the church, while neglecting the first one; they considered the Church as a great organisation for beneficence to MEN, while tending to forget the supernatural goal to lead them to Heaven; sometimes they even considered that the spiritual requirements were somehow an obstacle to her beneficence, and wanted her to lower her moral standards, and not to preach about penance, necessity of the true Faith and conversion. Some of these people even entered the clergy in order to serve MEN, and not first and foremost in order to serve God and lead men TO GOD.


 Now if one studies the Saints, one is struck to see that in many instances, the very reason why these Saints founded orders to take care of so many good works was in order to SAVE the souls of those poor people: Dom Bosco had pity first and foremost of the danger for the souls of the abandoned youth, so he gathered them in his schools; etc. St Thomas Aquinas teaches that charity for the neighbour consists in wanting ¡°UT IN DEO SIT – that he may be in God!¡± (II¨£-IIae q. 25 a. 1)


In other words, one does not truly love his neighbour unless he wants the SALVATION of his neighbour, that his neighbour finds God, which can only happen in finding our Lord Jesus Christ, the Mediator between God and men, in the one true Church which He founded: the Catholic Church, His very Mystical Body. Thus conversion to the true religion, and the faithful practice of it, must always have the first place in true charity towards the neighbour: it is at the root of all the dedication of those religious who gave their lives for all these kinds of human miseries: it is very hard to serve the poor, and they often do not really deserve it (for example, the first boy to whom St John Bosco offered hospitality¡¦ run away stealing the blanket Don Bosco has put at his disposal for the night), but our Lord Jesus Christ does deserve the utmost dedication, and when we serve HIM in them, then the service of the poor becomes somehow limitless. But when He is no longer in sight, then there is no need of the Church for that: people prefer to be salaried as social workers, with no life commitment, rather than give up all earthly things by the practice of poverty, chastity and obedience.

But when you look at secular ¡°social works¡±, you find them crippled by a lot of immorality: for instance, in the secular care of disabled children¡¦ most girls are systematically sterilized and often abused by the social workers themselves! Contraceptives are given at large to poor populations, and abortion is pushed upon them ¡¦ by those very secular organisations that pretend to help them! Just in the last few years the US government was conditioning financial helps to the Philippines on their acceptance of an ¡°RH Bill¡± pushing for contraception.


Now when you look at the people who are pushing for these ecological goals, you find that many – even among those whom the Pope asked to help him prepare Laudato Si – also are in favour of abortion, contraception, and other modern immoralities! And they have no care for the salvation of souls.


By allying with people like that for an earthly purpose, rather than preaching to them the need of their conversion to obtain the salvation of their soul, Laudato Si drives the Catholic Faith on a side track, on a wrong track, ultimately tending them to serve the creatures (ecology, Mother Earth), rather than the Creator.


I think in the modern world, the greatest evils are moral evils: abortion, all kind of antinatural vices, contraception, and at a more spiritual level, the rejection of God by whole countries and all kinds of organisations who want to be ¡°secular¡± as if God was not the Master of All, materialism, etc. This is the mission of the Church to preach the truth, to preach our Lord Jesus Christ, to heal souls from the evil of sin by preaching penance and conversion: this is the MAIN mission of the Church, and should not be forgotten behind earthly and secular goals.


At the second part of this question: what is the traditional teaching concerning ecology?


It all relates to the Dogma of Creation: if God is the Creator, we ought to RESPECT the work of God, and not to destroy it, not to pollute it, not to abuse it, especially by greed and all kinds of vices. Thus cleanliness is a virtue (not throwing trash everywhere: in some countries, it is very sad to see the amount of trash ¡¦ almost everywhere!), proper work in the fields for farmers (not burning out their lands by excessive fertilizers, but rather respect nature – kind of ¡°bio¡± agriculture), all these things are good and fair. Recycling, choosing that which respects the natural equilibrium of nature, etc. all this is good and fine. But that is not the main goal of the Church; not even the ¡°side¡± goal, except in as much as it belongs to the VIRTUE OF PRUDENCE, which commands to live a life according to the light of reason, and not according to the passions of greed.

 
But we do not ¡°worship¡± the earth; the so-called sins against ecology are sins ONLY in as much as they are sins of greed, or sins against the virtue of prudence, or sins against fraternal charity (leaving all trash around is sheer selfishness, and no respect for the neighbour that has to clean it up behind us!)
