Who are you to question the Authority of the Pope? Leaders will come together to lead us into the One World Government, One World Currency and a One World Religion. It is inevitable.

I’ve not seen a single global warming worshiper give up his home or car or iphone or beachfront property, yet. Their faith is weak.

It troubles me that he is clearly not on board with established Christian doctrine that the climate is in God’s hands, and far beyond the ability of mortal men to control.

It seems that this pope uses emotion as his spiritual guide and not sound scientific logic. Assuming that he actually said what is reported, the cause of earthly climate change does matter regarding the human response to it. Planet Earth has been rotating around the sun for many more millions of years than humans have inhabited it. Why then should scientists rely on data samples so small relative to the world’s history to be practically meaningless when determining policy that will probably plunge more people into poverty than it will actually help.

Should we be good stewards of the creation God has entrusted us? Yes of course, should we plunge humans into a cold darkness to do it. No... God gave us the bountiful resources of the Earth for our betterment not for a liberal agenda that replaces God in the minds of the insane and stupid

This Pope seems to be in the news almost daily. I can't recall any other Pope being so news worthy with so many opinions on so many subjects...many which are out of his area of expertise. I'm a Catholic but this guy is a total embarrassment.

Francis is to the Catholic church, as Obama is to the United States.

He was unexpectedly thrust into the limelight and it took him over, now he is giddy with all the attention and apparently wants more. He is entitled to his opinion but that is all it is.....opinion

He’s gotta get off of his ill conceived anti-capitalist jag.
He seems to think that those Central and South American banana republics are somehow symptomatic of Capitalism everywhere.

Who are the clown “scientists” advising him?

The hint should have been when the fraudsters felt compelled to change the name from “Global Warming” to “Climate Change”, do to clear contrary evidence no such thing is happening.

At least with John Paul II, I had at least some hope that he was truly saved. Not so with this clown.

Pope F. is key player in the NWO globalist conspiracy. Climate change is of course a hoax, but it’s a means for elitists to create the one world totalitarian state.

Oy vey. There are times when the saints truly need to intervene. It makes you wonder whether the prophecy is indeed true, that this is the last Pope(*).

(*) Such prophecies are always so vague that it could have been applied many times before to other Popes.

Never know quite what to think of Pope Francis; we continue to pray for him. However, according to Our Lady of Akita, there is some global warming he could be talking about:

October 13, 1973:

“My dear daughter, listen well to what I have to say to you. You will inform your superior.”

After a short silence:

“As I told you, if men do not repent and better themselves, the Father will inflict a terrible punishment on all humanity. It will be a punishment greater than the deluge, such as one will never seen before. Fire will fall from the sky and will wipe out a great part of humanity, the good as well as the bad, sparing neither priests nor faithful. The survivors will find themselves so desolate that they will envy the dead. The only arms which will remain for you will be the Rosary and the Sign left by My Son. Each day recite the prayers of the Rosary. With the Rosary, pray for the Pope, the bishops and priests.

“The work of the devil will infiltrate even into the Church in such a way that one will see cardinals opposing cardinals, bishops against bishops. The priests who venerate me will be scorned and opposed by their confreres...churches and altars sacked; the Church will be full of those who accept compromises and the demon will press many priests and consecrated souls to leave the service of the Lord.

“The demon will be especially implacable against souls consecrated to God. The thought of the loss of so many souls is the cause of my sadness. If sins increase in number and gravity, there will be no longer pardon for them....”

Does this have anything to do with his mental issues? Or have all the popes had mental issues? What an idiot.

Don't you mean next to last? If you are referring to St. Malachys, I think the next one would be the last.
