"...since [Pope Francis is] all for depopulation."

This is an untruth. I presume you didn't know that, because if you did, it would be a slander.

From Laudato Si:

50. Instead of resolving the problems of the poor and thinking of how the world can be different, some can only propose a reduction in the birth rate. At times, developing countries face forms of international pressure which make economic assistance contingent on certain policies of “reproductive health”. Yet “while it is true that an unequal distribution of the population and of available resources creates obstacles to development and a sustainable use of the environment, it must nonetheless be recognized that demographic growth is fully compatible with an integral and shared development”. To blame population growth instead of extreme and selective consumerism on the part of some, is one way of refusing to face the issues.

Regarding the first link in your post:

"That example I mentioned shortly before about that woman who was expecting her eighth child and already had seven who were born with caesareans. That is an irresponsibility That woman might say 'no, I trust in God.’ But, look, God gives you means to be responsible. Some think that -- excuse the language -- that in order to be good Catholics, we have to be like rabbits. No. Responsible parenthood", Papa Tango.

Taking the above paragraph in full context, Mrs. Don-o, what is the difference between Francis' "Responsible Parenthood" from "Planned Parenthood"?

Mrs. Don-O...either you are a Papal misinformation agent or you just blatantly lie.

“Sustainability” is the key word and can be found over 100 times in this document that he’s pushing at the UN in the next few days. What does that word mean when it comes to humanity multiplying?

Jesus Christ, who is none other than God, declared for us to (Genesis 1:28) “Be fruitful and increase in number; fill the earth and subdue it. Rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky and over every living creature that moves on the ground.”

I’ve know far too many Catholics who consider themselves more “Catholic” than actually Christians. He’s Marxist, he’s a NWO stooge, he’s a universalist, and more importantly, he blatantly goes against Biblical teachings time and again in his ridiculous statements that he makes, yet because he’s your “Vicar of Christ” (which is Blasphemous to the extreme), you defend him. He wants “Global Citizenship” for all. Does that not even raise a red flag with you?

Most conservative Catholics are turned off by that phrase.
He’s pushing this:

And this:

I suppose if I lived 500 years ago, I’d be burned at the stake eh?
