As a reader pointed out to me, one piece of evidence in particular has generated another climate news scandal recently. As a refresher: …according to the National Snow and Ice Data Center, global glacier thickness has declined every year for the past 4+ decades.

Yikes! Talk about ruining Christmas... I commend your willingness to say "I understand why the Catholic Church is so opposed to abortion, but ..." I too was raised a Catholic. Part of me feels that in a more perfect world, abortion would be irrelevant. But, we are a long way off, with many bridges to cross. Women need choices, not lectures. Impressive blog!

I commend your willingness to say “I understand why the Catholic Church is so opposed to abortion, but …” I too was raised a Catholic.
