Have you noted that all the refugees leaving their countries not one leader has objected?.....nor provided refugee protection in their own country...nor asked for refugees to return?

Like Mexico, the more people the world takes out of their country the less wealth they have to issue to them. Getting the young men out in droves brings stability so the Globalist deals made for the resources can be obtained without the normal conflicts happening. You can’t mine when theirs violent wars going on.

I suspect the Pope just didn't sit down and write this by himself.

Is this document considered “infallible”?

You didn’t seem to read my short post carefully.

“That’s China’s problem to correct...not ours”

I said the Pope wasn’t speaking to just Catholics in the United States.

“the Pope does not speak ‘for the World’”

Where did I say the Pope speaks for the world?

“You are wrong saying Environmental Issues aren’t fake.....Carbon tax’s have nothing to do with the environment”

So the specific example I give of pollution’s effect on some of the Chinese is “fake”? No it’s not. In this big world you don’t think that because of greed some people who don’t have much recourse have gunk put into their air and water?

I didn’t bring up carbon taxes, you did.

“the US Catholic Church’s balance sheet”

Financially, each diocese is a separate entity. If you think the dioceses are swimming in money because of faith-based initiatives, you’re kidding yourself.

....”Where did I say the Pope speaks for the world?”...

post 60#....You said....”The Pope isn’t addressing just the 6% of Catholics in the United States, but the entire world.

I also notice that no Senator has his panties in a wad because this will be used to justify an end to abortion.

Obviously people in the habit of taking things that fit their agenda out of context and fixating on a single sentence, or even part of a sentence, do so no matter what they refer to.
