ROME — We humans “must repent and modify our lifestyles” because of our abuse of Mother Earth, Pope Francis states in a message released Thursday.
In his Message for the Celebration of the World Day of Prayer for the Care of Creation, the pontiff decries the “mistreatment” of our common home stemming from “our consumerist excesses,” “tyrannical anthropocentrism,” “predatory economic interests,” and “short sighted and selfish actions” leading to “the collapse of our planet’s ecosystems.”
“In the first place, it is our sister, mother earth, who cries out. Prey to our consumerist excesses, she weeps and implores us to put an end to our abuses and to her destruction,” Francis declares in his Message.
Because of human irresponsibility “countless species are dying out and their hymns of praise silenced,” the pope laments, while the ancestral lands of indigenous peoples “are being invaded and devastated on all sides, ‘provoking a cry that rises up to heaven.’”
Because of the “climate crisis,” the poor disproportionately suffer the impact of “the drought, flooding, hurricanes and heat waves that are becoming ever more intense and frequent,” the pope asserts.

Francis worries about Mother Earth, but says nothing about Christians being slaughtered because of their faith in Africa and elsewhere.
Sickening.
Glanced through the linked speech. Didn’t see “M other Earth” the text.
“I’m sorry I dumped used motor oil in my back yard”
Say three Hail Gaia’s and eat 3 ounces of dirt and you will be clean.
I was hoping mass murder/genocide would rate an honorable mention.
Does that mean the Church is switching from Mother Mary to Mother Earth?
"In the first place, it is our sister, mother earth, who cries out. "
I didn’t either but I did see “In the name of God, stop fracing.”
Thank you. That’s what I get for not reading closer.
I am convinced the man is a fool
This particular planet is not our "mother". In fact, Jesus love us humans for whatever reason but make no mistake, "Gaia" HATES us. A real human world would not have fleas, ticks, mosquitoes, chiggers, lice, poisonous/stinging things or any of the other creatures of Pandora's box, fish that attack humans in water, weather that killed people or any of the other grief we have to put up with here.
How about you and many of your brethren repent for abuse of children.
I burned 27 gallons of old gas yesterday. Doing my part to continue the legacy of man.
I wish this fake Pope would slither back into the ooze he came from to rejoin his master (Satan).
The dumbass worships the created rather than the creator.
We used to dump it around our fence posts to kill weeds. And then pour the rest over a burlap bag over a scratchin post of for our cows. Never had to by fly spray that way.
More heresy from Francis the Talking Mule...
Seruzawa calls on the Pope to kiss his @$$.
...I’m living in shame
Gaia, I miss you
I know you’re not to blame
Gaia, I miss you
Came the telegram
Gaia passed away while making homemade jam...
Romans 1:20 - Ever since the creation of the world his invisible nature, namely, his eternal power and deity, has been clearly perceived in the things that have been made. So they are without excuse;
Rom 1:21 - for although they knew God they did not honor him as God or give thanks to him, but they became futile in their thinking and their senseless minds were darkened.
Rom 1:22 - Claiming to be wise, they became fools,
Rom 1:23 - and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images resembling mortal man or birds or animals or reptiles.
Rom 1:24 - Therefore God gave them up in the lusts of their hearts to impurity, to the dishonoring of their bodies among themselves,
.
.
.
Rom 1:25 - because they exchanged the truth about God for a lie and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed for ever! Amen.
.
.
.
.
Rom 1:26 - For this reason God gave them up to dishonorable passions. Their women exchanged natural relations for unnatural,
Rom 1:27 - and the men likewise gave up natural relations with women and were consumed with passion for one another, men committing shameless acts with men and receiving in their own persons the due penalty for their error.
Rom 1:28 - And since they did not see fit to acknowledge God, God gave them up to a base mind and to improper conduct.
Rom 1:29 - They were filled with all manner of wickedness, evil, covetousness, malice. Full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, malignity, they are gossips,
Rom 1:30 - slanderers, haters of God, insolent, haughty, boastful, inventors of evil, disobedient to parents,
Rom 1:31 - foolish, faithless, heartless, ruthless.
Rom 1:32 - Though they know God’s decree that those who do such things deserve to die, they not only do them but approve those who practice them.

Will someone please send that poser The Book !!
The old commie needs to hit the knee pads and beg the LORD for all the anti-God crap he has melted out to the public. Pro liberal, commie, IslamicCatholic fools. He will be either repenting of his sins against a Holy GOD or he will be at the Great White Throne for his sentence and it is for all eternity in the Lake of Fire. It is easy, there is NO bunch of choices. There is ONE choice, you are either FOR GOD OR AGAINST HIM. That is IT!!! No fence sitting, nothing else. You are either guilty or not guilty in GOD’s Court. He will be the Judge, Jury, Prosecuting Attorney, oh there is NO defense counsel. You are either for Him or against Him. You support God or satan. You may say I don’t support satan, I am neutral. Sorry friend, it is either FOR or against HIM, the Son of the Living GOD!!! Jesus did it all on the Cross on a hill called Calvary. He paid the price. Question is, did you accept His free offer of pardon, or not. Your choice. That simple. Your choice, and friend it will be the MOST IMPORTANT that you will ever make.
