He represents communist despots, not me.

Guess what einstein, it isn't his job to "represent you"-- or the communist despots.

He should stay out of completely. Like the article states, he’ll be teetering in on population control, too.

There were precedents set - many don't remember Pope John Paul II also telling us how we needed to save/preserve the Earth....

I find it odd that any religious person who believes in God and His Word in the Bible can get distracted by such crap. God has told us how it will pan out and whether or not we make a mess of the environment is really irrelevant to the big picture and how things go......

As pope, he should know Catholic theology. I just don’t believe he agrees with it.

Unfortunately for His Holiness there are a lot of Catholics who have not yet come to accept his enlightened views - and some of us have stopped attending Mass regularly.

Those for whom his behavior has become such an occasion of sin that they are tempted to abandon Mass and the Sacraments would be better off spiritually to simply focus on adhering to the Deposit of Faith and tune him out.

The Pope used to represent Catholic beliefs to the world.

He’s now AlGore in a robe.

Like it or not, he is the representative for all Catholics.

Maybe you didn’t know that.

Glad I could help you.

By the way Einstein, he’s doing a fine job representing the communist party in Cuba.

KMA.

-— It would be nice if Pope Francis stuck to theology, instead of something he knows nothing about. -—

Science, probably yes. But theology certainly touches on Creation and man’s relationship to it, which is probably what the encyclical is about.

But when it’s released, “man must be a good steward of Creation” will become, “pope calls for signing of Kyoto protocols.”

If the encyclical is neutral about the Global Warming Hoax, it will consist of nothing but stale platitudes about “stewardship” and so on, and will be forgotten in a week.

If the encyclical endorses the Global Warming Hoax, it will be the scandal of the century, because the earth has been cooling for 18 years and 6 months. It will be the first encyclical in history to teach a manifest, provable hoax.
