The hierarchy has been infiltrated by evil. They are now involved in politics that will destroy the economy of the US and allow outright theft.

Leaders of the Catholic Church in America took their “marching orders” from the Pope’s encyclical on Thursday, fanning out to Congress and the White House to push for action on climate change.

They'll be posting on FR shortly; trying to emphasize the RIGHTNESS of what the pope has proclaimed.

The Catholic hierarchy is heavily involved in open borders activities. They need more people (Hispanics) to fill the pews. And now they are involved in global warming propagandizing.
So this makes two anti-American activities.

Maybe this is being done so the Obama regime keeps funding Catholic social programs

It's so much easier -- and takes so much less time -- to fight "climate change" than it does to fight real evil. And to attack those who deny "climate change" as "evil-doers" -- that is, to equate "climate change" with "evil" -- builds a false sense of self-esteem in otherwise good people.

The Catholic Church will, of course, survive its foolish leader -- this PINO -- who is working diligently to reduce the Church to just another faddish cult. I don't pretend to know for one second how God thinks, but I think it's possible that He is not pleased with this pope using His name to promote the greatest evil the world has ever known -- socialism.

Do YOU really believe what MSN says?

I don’t. And many Catholics on FR don’t either.

BTW, have you read the encyclical — a letter to the Bishops?

There are good things in it for the family, against abortion, etc.

It’s the climate thing that needs repairing.

Mark Mallet has a good article up on this and plans to write more. He is always balanced and faithful to the Teaching Magisterium when writing. Here’s an excerpt of his post yesterday:

“NOT since Humanae Vitae has there perhaps been an encyclical letter that has generated more angst, more concern, more anticipation than Laudato si’. I have printed it off and will spend the weekend reading and meditating upon it.

I sensed the Lord saying that the first thing He wants us to do with this teaching is to examine our own conscience. Put aside judgments, put aside one’s own filters, and let the word speak to your heart. And in this regard, it is a “word” from the mind of Christ. For Jesus said to the Apostles, and thus, their successors:

Whoever listens to you listens to me. Whoever rejects you rejects me. And whoever rejects me rejects the one who sent me. (Luke 10:16)

Here too, we must set aside Peter, “the man”, and listen to Peter, “the office.” If you flip to the back of the encyclical, you will see just under 180 footnotes of references to several popes, the Catechism, the Second Vatican Council, and other magisterial statements. This in itself is a witness to the perennial voice of the Church that is an unfolding echo from the first Peter whom Jesus commanded to “feed my sheep.” [1] It is this voice that builds upon its predecessors all the way back to Christ himself that sets the Catholic Church apart from every single denomination in the world. It is this “Living Tradition”, founded upon the rock of Peter, that itself causes me to love and worship Christ more than ever. Because our faith is not dependent upon mere men, but the Divine Man, Jesus Christ, who builds His Church upon the Office of Peter that He established. [2]”

From EWTN, the Catholic side of the issue. Note also the links on this page to other articles pertinent to the Encyclical.

Catholic, vs. Mainstream, Point of View "Normally in the modern epoch, Popes have included in encyclicals doctrinal themes. But 'Laudato si' is not a doctrinal text -- it is rather a pastoral letter based on the classical Latin American method: see, judge, act."
