To Protect God’s Creation, Seek Personal and Policy Change, U.S. Bishops Say

Pope Francis established the World Day of Prayer for the Care of Creation in 2015.

Just as Christians have been restored to God’s kingdom through baptism, they must seek to rightly order their relationships and society to God’s creation, the U.S. bishops said in an environmental reflection ahead of the Sept. 1 World Day of Prayer for the Care of Creation.

“We must change! Pope Francis invites us to ‘transform our hearts, our lifestyles, and the public policies [to] contribute to the mighty river of justice and peace in this Season of Creation,’” the bishops said Tuesday.

Sorry,Pope Frank...no sale. I will not support the degradation of Western society to bring us back to the 15th Century.

As if God’s creation isn’t protected by design. These people are heretics.

The Catholic bishops are involved in everything but bringing the fallen to Christ's salvation.

I’m sure somebody knows who these bishops are. Their wives at least.

Sorry but would not entrust a child with most of today’s church hierarchy.

Seek HIM . . . once you’ve found Him, you can ask and He will answer.

As I am God’s creation, eating bugs, freezing in the winter and generally suffering unneccessarily doesn’t sound to me much like Care of Creation.

So, instead of explaining exactly what the seven deadly sins are and how they influence human nature, we are given the ecological nonsense sins. As a reminder, these are deadly sins:

Pride,
Greed,
Wrath,
Lust,
Envy,
Gluttony, and
Sloth

Every human caused problem in nature tracks back to these.
Try teaching the Catholic dogma instead of garbage!

The conference of Bishops has absolutely no authority. Each individual Bishop has authority in his diocese(if he hasn’t excommunicated himself for apostasy), but the National Conferences were created after V2 for “collegiality”,a V2 concept taken from the French Revolution. Bernadin was the head of the conference for a long time in the eighties, and anyone who knows his history has an idea of how the Conference was used for nefarious purposes.

After Bernadin died, his successor had to have hundreds of exorcisms performed in the diocese of Chicago because of all of the demonic activity in the city. Scary times we’re living in.
