The Church of England ‘Invests’ in Al Gore

Being that the Church of England (English and American version) pretty much has abandoned Christianity for outright worship of the state and of the environment, I guess it is not surprising that the Anglican brass has put hundreds of millions of dollars into Al Gore’s fraudulent “investment” firm that bankrolls “alternative” energy. As I wrote a while back, Gore’s firm is pretty much an entity in real-live fascism, masquerading as promoting “market-oriented solutions” to dastardly climate change.

That Gore’s firm can earn a positive rate of return only by state coercion of consumers and outright government subsidies apparently does not discourage the Anglican hierarchy. (Hey, this is “capitalism” that even the leftist Archbishop of Canterbury can support.)

The Anglicans claim to invest in “socially-responsible” things, and who can doubt the “responsibility” of forcing people to pay higher rates for electricity and put ethanol into their vehicles so Gore can put windmills everywhere, and so politically-connected corn farmers and others can get rich? Yeah, that evil free market won’t support windmills and corn-based ethanol, so the Archbishop of Canterbury has to purify it a bit.
