15th Sunday in Ordinary Time

El Greco's Saint Paul

From the letter of Saint Paul to the Romans 8:18-23 ". . . We know that all creation is groaning in labor pains even until now; and not only that, but we ourselves, who have the firstfruits of the Spirit, we also groan within ourselves as we wait for adoption, the redemption of our bodies."

This passage found its way from my ears to my brain this morning. I spent a least a few minutes wondering if our Global Warming alarmist friends might not be aware of this idea of creation "groaning in labor pains" and that maybe we don't know what our Creator has in mind for us and for all things.

And as for the apocalyptic notions they spread, Saint Matthew, 24:36, says that ". . . about that day and hour no one knows, neither angels of heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father. . ." meaning we are foolish and very likely wrong when we see the end of the world in climate change.

“In beholding old stones we may feel our anxieties about our achievements–and lack of them–slacken . . . Vast landscapes [and seascapes] can have an anxiety–reducing effect similar to ruins, for they are the representatives of infinite space, as ruins are the representatives of infinite time, against which our weak, short-lived bodies seem no less inconsequential than those of moths or spiders.”—Alain de Botton in Status Anxiety
