Pope Francis: Coronavirus Pandemic Is Nature Throwing a Tantrum
ROME Pope Francis told a Spanish journalist Sunday that nature never forgives and the coronavirus pandemic is natures cry for humans to take better care of creation.
Asked by a Spanish journalist via Skype whether the COVID-19 pandemic is natures way of taking revenge on humanity, the pontiff suggested that nature is calling for attention.
Theres a saying, which you have heard: God always forgives. We sometimes forgive. Nature never forgives, the pope said. Fires, earthquakes
nature is throwing a tantrum so that we will take care of her.

Giordano Bruno was not burned for saying the earth revolves around the sun. He was writing half a century after Copernicus, whose theories were well within what was discussed and peaceably debated amongst the Catholic intelligentia, including the scientific-minded clergy.
On the contrary, in addition to his cosmology which was largely a brilliantly imaginative but evidence-free fantasia, Bruno taught pantheism, the transmigration of souls (reincarnation), alchemy, astrology, a form of animism (communing with the spirits of metals, animals, stars, whatever) and aspired to be a magus/wizard in the Hermetic tradition.
In short, a religious charlatan and a scientific quack.
Just the kind of intellectual, I think, that Jorge Bergoglio might admire.

Catholicism did not do so: but Francis? Around 2016 I think.

No?
Pope Francis seems pretty open to pantheism and animism his Ecclesia in Amazonia program --- which is a whole lot more dangerous than his equivocatings about deaconesses.

Anyone can attend mass now from the comfort of your home. You can either capture a live stream or a pre-recorded one. This is old school latin mass with no nonsense rubrics and excellent sermons.
The only Sacrament this virus panic/pandemic has not taken from us is Confession, which our parish priest is doing outside.
This Pope will have his day in the Sun, and he may continue to wreak havoc, but just like every one of us, he will have to render an account.

You are right about that. Sorry, I was being sarcastic, it’s a failing of mine. I like your take on it much better.
