Pope Francis Calls on Nations to ‘End the Era of Fossil Fuel’
Breitbart ^ | 08/30/2023 | THOMAS D. WILLIAMS, PH.D.

Posted on 08/30/2023 9:19:41 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

ROME — Pope Francis has doubled down in his personal war on fossil fuels while condemning “extreme practices” such as fracking.

It is time world leaders to “listen to science and institute a rapid and equitable transition to end the era of fossil fuel,” the pontiff urges in his message for the Feast of Creation, to be celebrated on September 1.

It is “absurd to permit the continued exploration and expansion of fossil fuel infrastructures,” he insists. “Let us raise our voices to halt this injustice towards the poor and towards our children, who will bear the worst effects of climate change.”

Head back to Mass. Find a parish with a good old-fashioned rector. I go to one, drive 40 minutes to get there.

Christ is there waiting for you, Body and Blood, Soul and Divinity. Don't reject him because of the nimshi currently occupying Peter's Chair. Popes come and go; Christ remains.

Just last week, they started a sermon series on global warming.

The 2nd Peter 3:9-12 global warming?
Because that one IS coming. The version that the watermelons in the Media, government, and apparently the Vatican, are screeching about? - nope. They just want to use it as a tool to impose their 1984 dystopian one world government.

Dear Pope, there is no such thing as “Fossil Fuel”. If you are referring to the abiotic substance created by geological processes deep within the Earth, we must conclude that your opposition would deny the benefits of this miraculous energy source to the very poor and downtrodden you purport to champion - making you either a Grade A Hypocrite or a Communist. Good day, Sir.

Not just Christians. All people are God's children.
Maybe he should spend his time talking about the poor children in the Congo digging cobalt oar out of ground.
Or the Uyghurs in China making Nike sneakers. Or the people of Tibet. Or the people of Venezuela.

Remember when popes used to talk about religion and Catholicism?

Remember when we actually HAD a pope? Yeah, it's been a while.

The Vatican needs to tear down that wall as well.

Yup. And sure he still flies all over the place.

Hey anti-Pope Francis, SHUT UP and maybe PRAY to the real God whom you lyingly claim to represent on Earth.

Let’s all take the mark for the ‘New Man” so it can be used to ration fossil fuels and save the planet.

Personally, I think he’s the false prophet.

Popes should do pope things. Being a climate wacko isn’t one of them.

He needs to resign the papacy, have someone push his Holy Wheelchair to the nearest World Economic Forum center and join a Think Tank or two. Remove the regalia of devotion, once and for all.

This guy is the Antichrist. How do fools still think he’s infallible and follow this guy

He can’t be the antichrist, but more and more he is looking like a great candidate to be the false prophet. Rev 13:11 describes him as having two horns like a lamb and speaks like a dragon, sounds like Bergoglio to me, and Rev13:13 says he will make fire come down from heaven, deceiving those on earth, today’s technology makes this possible. The false prophet will team up with the antichrist, a political leader, to unite the worlds religions and governments, and force people to take a mark in order to to buy and sell.
