Don’t snicker too much, it happened before.
You know, I thought the media was really superb at putting words in Francis’ mouth; it’s clear, though, that FReepers meet ‘em punch for punch.
This artcle contains exactly one quote from the Pope (a highly general call for good environmental stewardship from his installation), zero statements from The Vatican, and a whole slew of speculation, projection, and outright distortion. I would have thought after the whole “pets go to Heaven” nonsense that we would learn our lesson, but sadly I’ve come to think the worst about folks around here when it comes to their understanding of Vatican affairs.
What? Dogs don’t go to heaven?
Scat, scat, scat.
As I stated, you will not prevent me from posting on whatever forum or thread I choose to post on.
However, I will ignore any and all posts to me from you as of this moment. I suggest you treat my posts in the same manner.
whatever else this man is he is NOT a scientist and he definitely lacks common sense
Oh to be the proverbial fly on the wall at the Vatican. There are a lot of folks trying to blow their horn and getting the people to call it the Pope’s horn.
To think we have any truly major impact on the environment is arrogant.
It would need something like global thermonuclear war to do this.
Whether you meant to say “Devoted” or “Devout,” your statement is far from the truth.
You will find plenty of faithful Catholics, including around here and including myself, who are not pleased with Francis’ apparent leftward lean, and know exactly where to draw the line between faith and blind bedience.
You may want to check your facts before you make such a comment.
OK, right after I find what bedience means

Lather, rinse, repeat....
Sounds like he’s getting into bed with the Communists in the UN who will use the fraud of climate change to redistribute money from Europe and the U.S. to poor countries. Of course, the people never see this money because their government officials steal it. The pope should know this, having lived in South America.
Dear Pope: Stick to faith and morals. Leave politics to the evil ones.
| I substitute nothing for core devotion to the Lord, and your insinuation is a canard. It is because of my core devotion to the Lord that I am Pro-Life. It is because of my core devotion to the Lord that I support traditional - i.e. Sacramental - Matrimony. It is because of my core devotion to the Lord that I abhor the abuses perpetrated by the clergy of my Church. I will never leave my Church, but I believe my Church is leaving me. |

“But the day of the Lord will come like a thief, in which the heavens will pass away with a roar and the elements will be destroyed with intense heat, and the earth and its works will be burned up.”—(2 Peter 3:10)
The green movement is another façade of the radical left as it is the Marxist liberation theology. Both movements have been strongly embraced by Francis. How much needs the Church a pope with the strong faith and intellectual caliber of Benedict XVI!!!
H.H. Pope Benedict XVI wrote his own Encyclicals. Although Francis is not intellectually gifted to write any kind of Encyclical; he will use as ghost writers several of the deranged environmentalists that push the hoax of the human responsibility for climate changes.
During the Second Vatican Council, Pope Paul VI, exasperated with the chaos prevailing, said that “it seems that the smoke from hell have entered through the windows of the Vatican.” Under Francis a five alarm fire is destroying the Vatican and the Church.
Yes, he is. Very worried about our world.
What about wind turbines mauling and solar panels incinerating God’s little creatures called BIRDS by the millions every year.. Huh POPE?
