Pope Francis doesn't judge gay people. As he said: who am I to judge. But, yes, he has a very conservative point of view w/ respect to marriage. Which I disagree with.Quote:

I wonder if Ben is on holiday as we have not had a regular stream of updates in this thread?
In the meantime the tenth anniversary of Hurricane Katrina has prompted some thoughtful studies of the way in which Louisiana, most notably its southern reaches in the Bayou, has been transformed, and probably not for the better. What is striking about both the BBC report linked below where it begins Louisiana's coastal wetlands are eroding - more than a football field of land is lost every hour. As the marsh erodes, homes, communities and the local Cajun culture are under threat...and the article linked below it from 2014, is the way in which both unravel the extent to which human interventions in the environment have at one time made life in this harsh environment sustainable, and at other times undermined the means that were used to make it sustainable.
Deciding to live in a wetland or marsh environment for most people would be too much of a risk, even if it has a reward for those who make it a success that can be measured in the daily fish catch (but the fish went awol a long time ago), and the freedom as described by Ms Hopkins (in the 2014 article) as she looks out of her window at a glorious sunset. To mitigate the risks, the levees, the dams, the re-routing of the rivers has in effect combined with the impact of hurricanes and BP's oil spill to tip the edge of sustainability perhaps too far to the irredeemable, so that whole way of life may be coming to an end. Someone I used to know suggested at the time that New Orleans should be left to sink into the sea; many of its former citizens -substantially Black Orleanois- now live in Texas; one hopes that Cajun culture will survive. The other interesting issue is how climate change in this instance is only one factor in the major changes that have affected these coastal communities, but others may want to think about living on the coast as a long term risk, rather than a reward because of those sunsets and sea views...
