Iceland has volcanoes. I would worry more about the seismic actions of the island’s vulcanism rather than pretend global warming is the cause.
Don’t look to Francis for sound moral leadership. I’m Catholic and even I don’t.
Volcanoes are definitely local warming.
Earth to Pope. Glaciers are bad. Frozen ground. Flatten everything. We are at the end of the inter glacial. What you see is normal. They all will soon be returning, however unless of course you do something productive like pray for warmth.
Bergoglio mentioned a funeral monument for a glacier and referenced it to his Laudato Si.
Get over yourself.
Any mention of eliminating the parents who spawned the babies to stop the problem?
“We know he doesn’t care about abortion”
I disagree. Francis recently described abortion as a practice “akin to the Nazis, but with white gloves.”
“Methinks Benedict stepped down before he was murdered.”
In one of his interview books with Seewald, Pope Benedict was asked if he feared assassination. He simply replied, “No.” I don’t think fear of death had anything to do with his resignation.

Abortionist praised by Pope speaks at Catholic church, pro-life protesters kicked out
Despite her abortion advocacy, Emma Bonino was praised by Pope Francis in 2016 as a “forgotten great” because of her work with refugees.
Between her abortion activism and being an abortionist herself, Bonino is directly or indirectly responsible for the deaths of roughly six million Italian babies between 1968 and today.
“population control agenda”
In an early address to the European Parliament, Francis told them that they weren’t replacing themselves and were in the midst of a demographic crisis. He has described population control programs in the third world as attempts at “ideological colonization.”
I don’t like Francis praising Pro-Abortion people for their positive work in other areas but he has been vehement in his condemnations of abortion.
Don't breed 'like rabbits': Was Pope Francis breaking new ground on birth control?
In Zika outbreak, contraceptives may be 'lesser evil,' pope says
Francis honors Jeffrey Sachs at ecological meeting/838_Sach-1.jpg)
Jeffrey Sachs, above, second from the left, is one of the main promoters of the UN's abortionist policies around the world. He holds UN titles such as director of the Sustainable Development Solutions Network (SDSN). He also serves as special advisor to the UN Secretary on the Millennium Development Goals.
He uses these positions to argue that, to prevent poverty and advance economic development, abortion and mass sterilization must be enforced by the UN in many countries through financial pressure and government policies.
Further, Sachs is an economist who is a close collaborator with magnate George Soros. It is not rare that Sach's environmental initiatives bring substantial gains to Soros investments.
After Francis' inauguration, Sachs has received preferential treatment at the Vatican. He is habitually quoted as being one of the minds behind the Vatican ecological program, including the draft of Francis' Encyclical Laudato si.
On May 27, 2019, the Vatican Pontifical Academy of Sciences sponsored the meeting "Climate Change and New Evidence from Science, Engineering and Policy." Sachs was chosen to be the guest of honor, sitting at the right side of the Pope, above.
We wonder whether or not the Vatican's ecological efforts to make Amazonia a region independent of the local governments is also a plan orchestrated by Soros' friend...
He sure didn’t seem to be vehemently condemning Emma Bonino or Jeffery Sachs.
Like I said in post 31, I don’t like it when he tries to work with people on issues apart from abortion while those people are Pro-Abortion.
You act as if he hasn’t condemned evils like abortion, population control, and gender theory at all, but he has.
Can an argument be made that the pope is causing confusion in the Church with regard to his seemingly contradictory statements? Yes.
Has he?
Are you hiding behind the old saying,
“Do as I say, not what I do,” ?
And just what is the positive work Francis and Jeffery Sachs are doing together? How about Francis and Emma Bonino? What good works are they doing?
I was just going to search for those rebuttal points.
My point is simply that your posts on here make it seem as if everything Francis does is scandalous and/or evil. Such a picture of his words and actions is incomplete and inaccurate.
