Behind the Scenes With the Pope's Secret Science Committee - Bloomberg Business



How to get to the pope?  What do you think of the green and very expensive carbon tax myth now? Are you worried about global warming ?  Is global warming a special interest gambit? Is this a new inquisition? Are we going retro ?



  

The Pontifical Academy of Sciences is a Vatican agency that has origins in Galileo’s time. It’s made up of 80 of the world’s top scientists, who keep the Bishop of Rome and the Vatican up to speed on new scientific research. On April 28, the academy hosted a conference on climate change and poverty. The religious leaders are seated to the right. The scientists face them, across the room. At the central podium, beneath the bust of Pope John Paul II, United Nations Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon delivers his address. They met in the great hall of the Vatican’s Casina Pio IV. The inscription on either side of the bust extols Pope John Paul II’s 1992 apology to Galileo.

This is akin to the arbitrary asset forfeiture laws . Legal stealing whose only purpose is to enrich the state under draconian and dubious punitive thinking. It is unjust, unconstitutional because mobility is a right not a privilege. It must be changed back to road safety only fines as before the intent was perverted or continue to bring the system of "justice " and law into disrepute.



Truth honour and justice file . Lets bring back natural justice?

Probe Reveals Red Cross Raised $500M for Haiti but Built Only 6 Homes / Sputnik International



For the record we ,as the KOC council worked on this needed relief project to help Haitians. our projects  did not materialize because the "professional agencies such as the  Red Cross was in charge."   There is a lesson here when you follow up on the actual results . The question becomes how do we do good for and with our order in the future ? Food for thought ?



"After raising nearly half a billion dollars for emergency disaster relief after the 2010 Haitian earthquake - including $170 million earmarked for 'shelter relief' - the American Red Cross has built a grand total of six houses, according to a new report."



The American Red Cross claims to have provided homes to 130,000 Haitians crumble under scrutiny, as that number includes people "trained in proper construction techniques," those in temporary shelters, or people who received rental assistance, according to a Propublica/NPR report
