Leo blasted the ‘injustice, violations of international law and the rights of peoples, grave inequalities and the greed that fuels them are spawning deforestation, pollution and the loss of biodiversity.’

He made no equivocations about what or who was to blame, identifying ‘climate change provoked by human activity’ and insisted the world was experiencing an ‘ecological crisis’.

He said humanity’s mission is the same as Christ’s: to protect creation and bring peace and reconciliation in the world.

‘We hear the cry of the earth, we hear the cry of the poor, because this cry has reached the heart of God,’ he said. ‘Our indignation is his, our work is his.’

Global Climate Change is the religion of the wealthy and privileged

Oh Yaya, another earth worshipping pope who thinks that man can confound God’s plan for the earth by “caring for the environment”. This planet will last a guaranteed 1007 more years, and likely much much longer EVEN IF man does nothing!

Now, if the pope wants to talk being responsible and not polluting just for the sake of having clean environ,ends, me, whatever, BUT preaching that man can change the climate is heresy!

Hi, FReeper ebb tide. Please do your usual due diligence regarding all things Catholic and Pope. I was hoping that I had misjudged Leo 14 and that he was turning out to be one of the good guys. I’d love for you to research this climate bunk statement and tell me that Leo 14’s statement was mistranslated or taken out of context and that he’s still looking like he’ll be a good leader for Catholics and not be a globalist using climate change warmageddon cult stuff to cull the masses.

In Dallas, Texas:

"The overall levee system begins along the Elm Fork and West Fork of the Trinity River continuing through downtown Dallas. This system is referred to as the Dallas Floodway."

"In the Dallas Floodway, twenty-three miles of levees average a height of between 29' to 32'.

"The East and West Levee Systems were originally completed in 1932 and upgraded by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers in the 1950s​​."

'We have to pray for the conversion of many people...who still do not see the urgency of caring for our common home,' he told the congregation.

I'll pray that the Pope gets access to real science.

So how do we explain the Roman Warm Period and the Medieval Warm Period? Climate should have remained constant the whole time. Especially since technology was limited back then.

It may be warming now but we are not even sure if we are causing it.

Well I had hoped for a Catholic pope. Saw glimmers.

Never mind.

What the heck? Pope Leo is pushing global warming?

And he’s doing so right after a terrible disaster,?

He sounds like some liberal politician or MSNBC commentator.

Pope Marx II speaks.

Sorry Catholics. The Obama of Popes destroyed your church. It is “fundamentally transformed” to reflect the marxist teachings of modern colleges. Can it be saved? Doubtful. I wouldn’t be the least bit surprised this clown pope appoints Muslim bishops for the sake of precious diversity.

Had him pegged on day one. Hand picked by the previous false pope. What part of floods happening all the time in Flash Flood Alley does he not seem to comprehend? Ridiculous how even this guy blames everything on Trump as if Trump has more power than Jesus himself. Tells you all you need to know about this latest false pope and how far the church has fallen.

Pope Leo urged the faithful around the world to combat climate change...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Note to Pope Leo, there is someone else’s hands who control the climate.....and this was an event He called well in advance.

Genesis 7:11 In the six hundredth year of Noah’s life, on the seventeenth day of the second month—on that day all the springs of the great deep burst forth, and the floodgates of the heavens were opened. 12 And rain fell on the earth forty days and forty nights.

thinly-veiled jab at President Donald Trump... did not mention specifically name Trump in his prayer, though the comment undoubtedly was taking aim at the Republican

I doubt it.

I don't see any "thinly-veiled jab."

Some conservatives behave like leftists; they are looking to be offended.

I heard this guy on microphone speaking english for the first time just the other day. Distinctly South American accent for someone growing up in Chicago.

I'm born and raised Detroit, but I do say howdy to people sometimes. To people south of the Mason-Dixon I'm sure my accent is a dead give away, but I'm not trying to fool anyone. To quote one of the greatest of all time; "I ain't no ways tard".

Is he sure Texas is really Texas ?

Asking for a friend in Israel.

I guess he feels the world needs more weather modification to change the climate to fight climate change

Maybe he should ask that pagan idol of his to change the climate.

Maybe pray to gia ?
