Dear Pope...Don’t forget to remind the world that the sun revolves around the earth.

How utterly stupid to blame climate change for hurting the poor.
What do these "world leaders" suggest? If only we could go back to 1915 the poor would be sooo much better off?
Get a clue Francis!

A Pope is supposed to be the keeper of the faith, yet this one is far more interested in promoting socialist agendas.
I left the Catholic Church years ago. But if I was still in the RCC, I could not consider this Pope to be my spiritual leader. I can only imagine true Catholics are deeply embarrassed.
I fear he is laying the foundation for something much worse to come.

Climate does not discriminate.
Humans do NOT impact the climate.

But he didn’t do that. He resigned. Quickly.
Again, I’m not Catholic. But it seems to be that allowing priests to marry (the opposite sex) might solve a lot of these problems. Even if a tiny minority of priests are pedophiles, it seems far too many of them are and they are in positions of power. This is unacceptable and has damaged the Church greatly. I personally know a few “devout” Catholics who have referred to priests as perverts (or something similar) without prompting or batting an eye.

Catholics sure have their hands full with this one, don’t they?

The environmentalist agenda will keep most of the worlds poor in developing countries in poverty. It takes affordable energy to develop modern societies. Would the pope have us all go back to pre-industrial societies living in villages with horse powered agriculture? There is another ugly facet of the environmentalists...some want to limit population not only with birth control and mandatory sterilization, but with forced euthanasia and abortion.

Sad, sad waste of his bully pulpit.
There are only about 10,000 things that affect the poor more than this.

You will believe what you will. Relying on info from The Guardian is like relying on The New York Times for unbiased clarity in all things conservative.
Pope Benedict XVI was one of the first to call for the removal of clergy guilty of abuse of children. That is the real record. And, as to the reason(s) he chose to resign - he as not made those public except to say he was getting too old to keep up the hectic schedule, which is far more grueling than that of the wimpy - and much younger - Obama.

Maybe that prophecy was correct, and Benedict XVI was indeed the last Pope.

The hoped for draconian Cap N’ Trade type laws are what MAKE poor people.
These moronic laws will keep the poorest of the poor down longer and make many billions of us all poorest.
All for a hoax.
Hey pontiff,
I thought there was something in the Bible about NOT lying.
By way of example you should not promote the lie of manmade global warming or you will risk hellfire.

It’s not just the pope. This guy had to have a majority who voted him in and enough support to keep saying what he’s saying.

Still the best analogy I've seen.
Keep injecting it whenever necessary.
