Pope Francis Calls on Humanity to ‘Repent’ for Abuse of Mother Earth

ROME — We humans “must repent and modify our lifestyles” because of our abuse of Mother Earth, Pope Francis states in a message released Thursday.

In his Message for the Celebration of the World Day of Prayer for the Care of Creation, the pontiff decries the “mistreatment” of our common home stemming from “our consumerist excesses,” “tyrannical anthropocentrism,” “predatory economic interests,” and “short sighted and selfish actions” leading to “the collapse of our planet’s ecosystems.”

“In the first place, it is our sister, mother earth, who cries out. Prey to our consumerist excesses, she weeps and implores us to put an end to our abuses and to her destruction,” Francis declares in his Message.

Because of human irresponsibility “countless species are dying out and their hymns of praise silenced,” the pope laments, while the ancestral lands of indigenous peoples “are being invaded and devastated on all sides, ‘provoking a cry that rises up to heaven.’”

Because of the “climate crisis,” the poor disproportionately suffer the impact of “the drought, flooding, hurricanes and heat waves that are becoming ever more intense and frequent,” the pope asserts.

Why is this numbskull hereticPope when Benedict is still walking and talking?
Seriously, who plucked this marxist from the flock to just place him where he could destroy the church??

[Right Brigade]

Worship the creation rather than the Creator!

[TigersEye]

My lifestyle is 1,000Xs more balanced and “Earth friendly” than Frankie’s.
I’d bet the farm in it.

[piusv]

Who is *he* to judge?

[freespirit2012]

Wow.. the Pope may be the single biggest gaslighter in the world.

[samadams2000]

Pope Fail- Thou shalt not have Gods before me

[Bookshelf]

Francis is a horse’s arse who is really starting to get on my nerves.

[Whatever Works]

So Catholics, you follow an Earth worshipper? His ONLY commentary should be to declare Jesus as Our Lord and Savior and bring souls to Christ. Why are you not INCREDIBLY offended by his comments about “Mother” Earth? A recall and denouncement should be happening for all of his many blasphemies.

....crickets......

[KittenClaws]

I got your repentance right here, Satan boy….

[TalBlack]

Oh mother earth died for our sins did she?

CANTICLE OF BROTHER SUN AND SISTER MOON OF ST. FRANCIS OF ASSISI

Most High, all-powerful, all-good Lord, All praise is Yours, all glory, all honour and all blessings.

To you alone, Most High, do they belong, and no mortal lips are worthy to pronounce Your Name.

Praised be You my Lord with all Your creatures, especially Sir Brother Sun, Who is the day through whom You give us light. And he is beautiful and radiant with great splendour, Of You Most High, he bears the likeness.

Praised be You, my Lord, through Sister Moon and the stars, In the heavens you have made them bright, precious and fair.

Praised be You, my Lord, through Brothers Wind and Air, And fair and stormy, all weather’s moods, by which You cherish all that You have made.

Praised be You my Lord through Sister Water, So useful, humble, precious and pure.

Praised be You my Lord through Brother Fire, through whom You light the night and he is beautiful and playful and robust and strong.

Praised be You my Lord through our Sister, Mother Earth who sustains and governs us, producing varied fruits with colored flowers and herbs. Praise be You my Lord through those who grant pardon for love of You and bear sickness and trial.

Blessed are those who endure in peace, By You Most High, they will be crowned.

Praised be You, my Lord through Sister Death, from whom no-one living can escape. Woe to those who die in mortal sin! Blessed are they She finds doing Your Will.

No second death can do them harm. Praise and bless my Lord and give Him thanks, And serve Him with great humility.

Every damn' time Francis opens his mouth, I'm glad I left the catholic church in 1992.

Just sayin' ...

Let me know when the catholic church gets a REAL pope again.

[ebb tide]

Not original, did you know this ?

I'm quite aware of it; but nowhere does the saint refer to the earth, fire, moon, whatever, "crying out" as if they had souls.

Face it, Bergoglio is a pagan; St. Francis was not one.

[WVNan]

That man is Satan’s brother. It’s a shame the way he has brought down the Catholic Church.

[af_vet_1981]

I'm quite aware of it;

That seems odd; most of the objections I read are for referring to the earth as a mother and Francis of Assisi is not alone in that regard.

Is “Mother Earth” a Catholic Concept (Church Fathers)?

DECEMBER 17, 2019 BY DAVE ARMSTRONG

Do you also condemn the use of the term(s) in question by the Church Fathers ?

Is Sirach / Ecclesiasticus 40:1 in the Bible ?

“Great travail is created for every man, and an heavy yoke is upon the sons of Adam, from the day that they go out of their mother's womb, till the day that they return to the mother of all things.”

[af_vet_1981]

No ?

Consider this perfect saint:

There was a man in the land of Uz, whose name was Job; and that man was perfect and upright, and one that feared God, and eschewed evil.


If my land cry against me, or that the furrows likewise thereof complain;

[af_vet_1981]

ut nowhere does the saint refer to the earth, fire, moon, whatever, "crying out" as if they had souls.

Surely you must know this one by heart:

And he answered and said unto them, I tell you that, if these should hold their peace, the stones would immediately cry out.

[ebb tide]

There’s no such thing as a perfect saint, with the exception of the Blessed Mother.

[ebb tide]

Surely, you are defending a pagan pachamama pope.

On Francis’ Denial of Transubstantiation: A Rejoinder to Dave Armstrong

When he’s not promoting the “wisdom” of Methodist founder John Wesley or the “glorious sounds” of rock bands like The Beatles, Novus Ordo apologist Dave Armstrong carries the water for another beacon of faith and virtue: the Argentinian apostate Jorge Bergoglio, who has been starring as “Pope Francis” in the ongoing theological comedy act that is the Vatican II religion.
