Pope Francis and the Vatican run the risk of people losing their faith by this one perplexing turn of events since he became pope: They thought the idea was for the pope to convert Obama. Instead the pope was converted by Obama

Pope out in left field on definition of terrorism



“Journalism based on gossip or rumors is a form of “terrorism” and media that stereotype entire populations or foment fear of migrants are acting destructively.” So said Pope Francis from a walled in Vatican City on the second straight day of looting and burning by rioters in Charlotte, North Carolina. Oh for Heaven’s sake, Pope Francis, which century are you living in?
Much of the journalism of the day is controlled by governments who, in the case of the United States of America, stoke racial discord while totally ignoring the persecution of Christians by Islamic terrorism, a harsh reality that seems to be going straight over the head of the Bishop of Rome. “Francis, who made his comments in an address to leaders of Italy's national journalists' guild, said reporters had to go the extra mile to seek the truth, particularly in an age of round-the-clock news coverage. (Reuters, Sept. 22, 2016) “Spreading rumors is an example of "terrorism, of how you can kill a person with your tongue", he said. "This is even more true for journalists because their voice can reach everyone and this is a very powerful weapon." So can popes who side with Marxist presidents, Francis. Kill a person with their tongue, that is. Stoking up racial fury, allowing paid rioters to loot and burn is sin, and sin is just as much an offense to The Almighty now as it was in the time He sent His only Son to redeem us.

Pope Francis, now mockingly addressed as “Bergoglio” in some quarters of the Catholic blogosphere, also piously proclaims that Catholics must take all sins committed against the environment to the confessional box. The degradation of the climate, he insists, is a “sin against God”. So is lying, Pope Francis, and that is what you and President Barack Obama are doing by claiming that global warming/climate change is a bigger threat to humanity than is ISIS. “Bless me Father for I have sinned”...against the Environment is not something that is going to drive ‘sinners’ to confession worldwide, no matter how far Francis and Obama try to push it. Sinners are already dodging confession on the big sins of abortion and adultery. Catholic priests of the day would tell both pope and president that only a handful of their faithful ever come to Confession.

Taking care of the Environment, which can be filed under the category of Plain Common Sense, is not one of the Ten Commandments. Most people are good stewards of the environment if only because the environment is their own ‘hood. Is Pope Francis now an adherent of the Earth Charter, The Ten Commandments arrogantly rewritten by former Soviet Union President Mikhail Gorbachev and late ‘Father of the Environment’ Maurice Strong; the same Earth Charter once carried by UN employees into public schools in the Ark of Hope, a wooden chest that is basically a New Age knock-off of the Ark of the Covenant? Because descriptions of the Ark of Hope always bring disbelief, here is the Earth Charter’s mission statement: "...to promote the transition to sustainable ways of living and a global society founded on a shared ethical framework that includes respect and care for the community of life, ecological integrity, universal human rights, respect for diversity, economic justice, democracy, and a culture of peace." Doesn’t the titular head of the Catholic Church know that God, and not Barack Obama, is the indisputable Creator of Climate Change and has been for millennia? I’m not the only Catholic who thinks this pope is out to lunch. Even a prominent Catholic newspaper recently lamented in print how the pontiff is losing support among the faithful. But they lost me when they addressed their open letter to him as “Your Holiness”. Popes who have thrown in with Marxists like Barack Obama should never be addressed as “Your Holiness”, rules of respect notwithstanding, Doesn’t Francis know from scripture that The Ten Commandments of Moses and not the Earth Charter is the real McCoy? Climate change is part of the Creator’s Creation. So why are an American president and a Catholic Pope messing with it in the first place? “In his message marking the World day of Prayer for the Care of Creation, the pontiff said climate change is caused in part by human activity, leads to extreme weather and disproportionately affects the least advantaged around the world. (Washington Times, Sept. 1, 2016)
“Global warming continues, due in part to human activity: 2015 was the warmest year on record, and 2016 will likely be warmer still,” Francis said. “This is leading to ever more severe droughts, floods, fires and extreme weather events.”
Looks like Francis has been to the Barack Obama/Al Gore Global Warming/ Climate School and graduated from it, Summa Cum Laude. (Francis likes the use of Latin phrases. Obama & Gore prefer the Doublespeak of the Progressive). For decades now Sky is Falling radical environmentalists, working in tandem with government leaders, have been ordering the masses to get rid of their air conditioning, to shun wicked red meat and have been endangering the docile cows of the field by insisting their flatulence is a main cause of global warming/climate change. Thanks to radical environmentalists who jet in to ‘Save the Environment’ protests in cities around the globe, villagers in Africa still have no access to clean water or electricity. It’s now a progressive-controlled, upside down world where saving whales and spotted owls is more important than saving babies, killed by the millions in legalized abortion, in a kind of pollution ignored by politicians and religious leaders of the day. Now that’s a sin that needs to be confessed. Pope Francis and the Vatican run the risk of people losing their faith by this one perplexing turn of events since he became pope: They thought the idea was for the pope to convert Obama. Instead the pope was converted by Obama.
