Pope Francis says coronavirus may be ‘nature’s response’ to climate crisis

An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth and a global pandemic for a natural disaster.

Pope Francis said in a new interview published Wednesday that he believes the coronavirus outbreak is “nature’s response” to humans failing to save the ecosystem.

“We did not respond to the partial catastrophes," the Pope said in an email interview in The Tablet and Commonwealth magazines. “Who now speaks of the fires in Australia, or remembers that 18 months ago a boat could cross the North Pole because the glaciers had all melted? Who speaks now of the floods?”

The 83-year-old pontiff specified that he doesn’t think the pandemic is a “revenge of nature,” but said the outbreak is “certainly nature’s responses.”

Heaven will still be there without the assistance of the Pope. It doesn’t take a Pope to get you there.

Or, it is God’s permissive will that allowed his protection to be removed due to the major sins in the clergy.

Frances is big on God’s permissive will after all.

Who ... remembers that 18 months ago a boat could cross the North Pole because the glaciers had all melted?

Sadly, this drifts into the Pantheistic.... as if God is part of this earthly world.... too many Catholics- and Protestant Brethren are duped into believing this.... The Pope keeps moving this direction (Amazonia) and it is not helpful God created our universe...but God is not a part of it or recreating it daily... as Lewis said God is like an architect who designs a house- but is not part of the sturcture- like a wall or door...

The Pope is terribly misguided here.... but as a successor to Peter he must be given his due.... though we must stay critical..

We must pray for this Pope that he allows The Holy Spirit to guide him....

Oh, so sorry, Frank. The correct answer is “Communist China created the virus.” Not fake global warming or nature’s response.

He hasn’t mattered to me in a long time.

God left this GREAT BOOK behind so that we wouldn’t need phony leaders and false prophets when they came along.

Some keep going NUTS about what this jerk is doing. And yeah, he’s completely redefining what is the truth.

But like I said, we know what to do.

None of us has a “no expiration” tag on his/her head.

So do what one knows is right, follow The Bible, pray and know that francis and ALL the other bad actors will expire too one day.

Nothing here lasts forever.

The good or the bad

Nature is very emotional when She gets too hot. Gods are like that. Kind of twitchy. Unpredictable. She gets even when you disappoint Her. Francis knows.

The truth -- changing the title.

Pope Francis says coronavirus may be ‘nature’s response’ to climate crisis contraception, abortion and euthanasia.
