VATICAN CITY (CNS) — “Now is the time to abandon our dependence on fossil fuels and move, quickly and decisively, toward forms of clean energy,” Pope Francis said as he marked the World Day of Prayer for the Care of Creation.
“We have caused a climate emergency that gravely threatens nature and life itself, including our own,” the pope said in his message for the Sept. 1 ecumenical day of prayer.
Pope Francis urged Catholics to find a naturally beautiful place and think about how God created the universe and declared it good; then he created human beings and gave them creation “as a precious gift” to safeguard.
“Tragically, the human response to this gift has marked by sin,” he said. Selfishness and self-interest have turned creation, which was meant to be a place of encounter and sharing, into “an area of competition and conflict.”

“Tragically, the human response to this gift has marked by sin,” he said. “Selfishness and self-interest have turned creation, which was meant to be a place of encounter and sharing, into an area of competition and conflict. Which is why I’m urging all good Catholics to convert to the peaceful religion of islam”
Ping
This pope is completely lost.
Meet the new Pope of the soon to be One World Religion of the soon to be One World Government.
Prior to this speech, the Francsis had just been rescued from a stuck elevator by firefighters. The reason: loss of electrical power.
Thanks ebb tide.
No doubt about it...commie...
The commie Poop is concerned that we aren’t preparing for the Stone Age caliphate fast enough.
Jesus said, "...the gates of hell will not prevail against it."
Pope Windbag I sure is giving the denizens of hell every opportunity.
We survived the Borgias. We hope to survive this clown.
Pope Che.
Now is the time for the Pope to STFU about things he doesn’t understand. Stay in your lane, Frankie boy, and worry about the Salvation of Souls.
Note to Dope Frances: Give up faggotry. Give up liberation “theology”. Embrace the Bible. If you do thse three things you can avoid going to Hell.
Pollution, the incessant use of fossil fuels, deforestation and intensive farming are causing global temperatures to rise and already threaten the lives of the world’s poorest people, he said.
And how, dear Poopus Communistus, are the world's people, especially the poorest, to be fed, clothed, given medical care, housed, and educated without fossil fuels and intensive farming?? You, Poopus , have just committed the RC Church, once one of the worlds greatest forces of civilization, to the destruction of Western Civilization, worldwide totalitarianism, and a return to pre-eighteenth century living, all in the service of the evil communist superstition of anthropogenic global warming. Bergoglio is rapidly becoming one of the world's most evil people, right up there with Lenin, Stalin, and Mao. He's a total disgrace to the RC Church and an anti-pope.
The planet has become a sinful “area of competition and conflict.”
When I was young the Church was an enemy of communism and understood survival depended on defeating it. Now the Church wants to join up?
Maybe he should clean up the destructive climate inside his own church first
I cannot stand this commie!
This Pope sucks. Always.
He’ll give up flying and using his car? Use candles instead of fossil fueled electric plants?
He actually said that? Unbelievable!!
