Shut up, popehole.
Bergoglio knows as much about energy apparently as he does the Bible.
Good Lord.
How about advocating for Christ?
Bring back John Paul II.
Do leaders of Catholicism even ever READ the scriptures?
I thought he was a preacher and a pastor, not an economist or business executive. How does he know more about the energy industry than the random person in the Buenos Aires phonebook? But he’s going to lecture people who’ve made that their life’s work and have been successful at it. Does he actually think that that industry wants to kill or injure their own customers?
So when will the “Pope” ask the same of some Mullahs?
Expanding sources of energy created civilization in the first place.
The coward anti-pope won’t fight pedophilia and evils instead he has to hide behind a crusade for “the planet”.
The availability of cheap, reliable electricity is absolutely necessary for the generation of real wealth and the alleviation of miserable poverty. The creation of real wealth correlates best with the degree of social justice found in any society. Without abundant cheap fossil fuels, electricity production would be curtailed and it would much more expensive. People will suffer. The Pope has a disdain for capitalism and should not be giving economic advice.
If he was really in the know, he’d understand that oil production and sales is one of the few things that is keeping civilization from destroying itself with war.
Sad so many people have to comment on things they know nothing about.

Guess he figures that’s his role in life.
How utterly ignorant is this pope? Can the church not recall him?
Does the Vatican read FreeRepublic?
Thorium energy Pope, thorium energy. Will solve most of the world’s energy problems and pollution problems as well. End of story.
Got it? Now back to bringing lost souls to Christ...
Pope has become the pope of Gaia religion.
Energy is needed to improve people’s lives, without it you have death, suffering, and misery.
This is what the Pope is advocating.
