Title: Pope Francis warns of destruction of Earth's ecosystem in leaked encyclical

Pope Francis will this week call for changes in lifestyles and energy consumption to avert the “unprecedented destruction of the ecosystem” before the end of this century, according to a leaked draft of a papal encyclical. In a document released by an Italian magazine on Monday, the pontiff will warn that failure to act would have “grave consequences for all of us”.

Francis also called for a new global political authority tasked with “tackling … the reduction of pollution and the development of poor countries and regions”. His appeal echoed that of his predecessor, pope Benedict XVI, who in a 2009 encyclical proposed a kind of super-UN to deal with the world’s economic problems and injustices.

According to the lengthy draft, which was obtained and published by L’Espresso magazine, the Argentinean pope will align himself with the environmental movement and its objectives. While accepting that there may be some natural causes of global warming, the pope will also state that climate change is mostly a man-made problem.

Every democrat that is in favor of abortion is not a christian.

Amen.

On the position of abortion, its support provides a telling litmus test of "Christian/NON-Christian."

You fail to realize that "THEY" are what pass for mainstream Christians these days and have a different view of the tenets of Christianity than you or I. I include the Pope in the current mainstream category.

"Mainstream" Christianity is a compromised river of polluted Christianity diverted to Hell.

Christian traditionalism is all but dead save in small enclaves.

Agree.

I'm pretty sure we had the discussion before the 2014 elections so I know the numbers have changed somewhat, just not sure by how many.

Just because someone claims to be Catholic, Baptist etc, etc, doesn't mean they actually are, most of them probably pick/say what they think their constituency will vote for.

I remember that when you enlisted in the military and they asked you what religion you were and you didn't know or didn't care to share, you automatically became a PROTESTANT and that is what went on your Dog Tags!!!

So I guess my question is would a truly religious person do the things our politicians do with legislation that only benefit themselves and their ambition for power??? (They're knowingly screwing their constituency/fellow man all so they can feel good about themselves). I was under the impression that the word of God meant you are supposed to act in a way that benefits everyone??

If this isn't true then there are a lot of people ignoring their faith by voting for these jokers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The fact is that over 90% of Congress identify themself as Christian.

Bruce Jenner "identifies" as a "woman"; There's white NAACP leader who now "identifies" as "black." Suddenly down is up and wrong is right?

Congress (as a group) is demonstratively un-"Christian."

You unilateally changed the discussion by introducing yor biases and beliefs.

"Biases and beliefs" based upon scriptural truths are what traditionally have guided us to discerned right from wrong in THIS country. Am I wrong?

Now that the truth is blurred by personal "identification," and truth as well as "right and wrong" is now relative. No wonder this nation swirls us down the john like yesterday's morning deuce.

Yup, I think you're right on the content of that discussion.

On the subject of "religious affiliation," it means NOTHING these days. Any "Christians" who voted for 0blabla, Klinton, or Pelosi are only kidding/lying to themselves.

Great, simple question and litmus test for integrity. Answer: NO.

Comparing McStain to Cruz is insane.

Like Obama, they're both foreign born and ineligible to be president of the US.

At least McCain had two US citizen parents, whereas Rafael only had an American mother. Raffie Sr. didn't bother to become a US citizen until around 2005. He was in no hurry to renounce his allegiance to Fidel and the Communist party. Teddy Cruz is doubly ineligible like Obama, foreign parent and foreign born.

Don't worry the Democrats don't give a damn about the Constitution either, so that old thing won't stop anyone from becoming president of this NWO banana republic.

According to Hondopey, not the constitution. A Servicemember who is stationed overseas and has a kid. That kid isn't eligible to be President.

But a wetback who comes here and squats a kid out. That kid is eligible in your twisted mind.

According to the constitution. McCain is certainly eligible. His parents were both Americans you moron.

He claimed failing health and feeling unable to lead the church.

It does happen, has happened many times in history. You notice he's not very visible these days outside a rare sighting at a mass. My guess is that he got an Alzheimers diagnoses and stepped down.

That's the biggest reason they want to do away with morality as we now know it, so nobody will hold them responsible for their actions.

They sure don't legislate according to their Christian ideals/worldview.

No they don't.

So are they lying to themselves? Their constituents? God? Or...ALL of us??

Well the ones who run on Christian worldview values should be voting that way. Period. And I am not talking about theocracy here. I'm talking about promoting the Christian worldview of morals and life issues.

Yet there are those who say they are Christian but apply compartmentalization.

Compartmentalization is an unconscious psychological defense mechanism used to avoid cognitive dissonance, or the mental discomfort and anxiety caused by a person's having conflicting values, cognitions, emotions, beliefs, etc. within themselves.

Compartmentalization allows these conflicting ideas to co-exist by inhibiting direct or explicit acknowledgement and interaction between separate compartmentalized self states.

For example, the politician who professes being a Christian yet is pro-choice and uses the excuse that they 'cannot impose their moral standards on others.' Yet they vote for pro-choice type legislation or are 'indifferent' to the issue.

Such an approach can be explained as someone who is a new Christian and still developing their worldview; are not familiar with the Scriptures and are beginning their discipleship. Such need our prayers, their church teachers and pastors to lead them to the truth.

On the other hand you have those who self identify with a Christian worldview yet have been vocal advocates for abortion and have a voting history which is pro-choice. Such is the example of compartmentalization. Or worse open deception.

On the position of abortion, its support provides a telling litmus test of "Christian/NON-Christian."

I give consideration (as I mentioned in a previous post) of the spiritual maturity of a new born again believer. Yes there is a transformation of heart and mind, but some of our old understandings and ways must be 'worked out' in the sanctifying work of the Holy Spirit. Proper personal study, prayer and growth in the faith along with proper church discipleship and mentorship leads a new believer to the truths of God.

This is why you see quite a few young in age or new adult Christians grapple with issues such as abortion. Some have been programmed from childhood outside of God's Truth.

So the above I would consider before applying the litmus paper:)

And we should always remember, even the most hardened pro abort types like Nancy Pelosi by God's Grace and for His Glory can become a child of God. God works wonders and usually on the most hard cases...Saul of Tarsus included in that as well.

This is really a silly question. Of course they would at times. We all would at times. That is becuase we are all less than perfect and are all sinners. Fortunately for us one stumble doesn't define the entirety of our relationship with God. He forgives those that truly repent in their heart, even if we make the same stumble over and over and over again and sincerely repent.

Repentance means turning away.

So I see what you are saying.

But a repentant heart is also a gift of God's Grace. Without God transforming the heart and mind of the sinner, a person is incapable of satisfying Him. Only The Son of God was a Sacrifice pleasing to The Father.

You can ask God when you see Him. Does anyone human know exactly when Jesus makes His judgment on us? Is it before the instant of death? After? During? Does He allow one to repent on the death bed or immediately thereafter?

People like Bob Celest claims that he knows for certain that he will be going to Heaven. So I gues he can phone in the rest of his life on Earth and not need to worry about his sinning. I have wonder more about the mind set of the Bob's of this world than in Jesus' mercy on us sinners.

I'd had a Catholic friend pose the very same great question. That's why it's called "Grace"; AMAZING Grace, actually, right? :-) Yes, it blows minds. Answer: YES.

Important case and point: As Red alluded to, that criminal from his own cross asked Jesus to remember him, and was promised "Paradise" by the grace of Jesus Himself. Now whether the above infamous serial evil-doers did repent at 11:59:59 PM of their lives and gave it all the Jesus that moment (or beforehand)...God only knows. As to "serial sinners" who claim they "know" the Lord, He *is* going to know their heart, won't He? There's no conning The Almighty.

No more touching lyrics of hope to a song than this...because it says it all:

He forgives those that truly repent in their heart, even if we make the same stumble over and over and over again and sincerely repent.

To me the word "sincerely" means they are promising to NEVER EVER do something again, not apologizing every other day/week/month for the same transgression. (After awhile that persons word has little meaning anymore).

Sooner or later people have to start using their "big head" to think all the time instead of using the "little head" on the weekends. I know that's a stretch for most people in today's world but not that many years ago "your word was your bond"!!
