IN the NEWS - Greening of Easter now?

In the article below they are finally GETTING REAL-what it is all about---instead of "Easter", which was supposed to be about the resurrection of the Son of the Father God, they are making "Easter" about the neo-paganism of Mother Earth via the Green Religion....at least now they are being open about it.....maybe next they'll set up a day to worship in honor of the Sun, wait....uhm....

"In this reflection I want to focus on our Easter mission in the context of climate change and caring for our environment or in the word's of Pope Francis I, Our Common Home.
Today the message regarding the vulnerability and destruction of our common home, the earth, has been made clear. Pope Francis' letter addressed to all the peoples of the world, "Laudato Si: Encyclical Letter on Care for our Common Home" states that the earth, our sister, now cries out to us because of the harm we have inflicted on her by our irresponsible use and abuse of the goods with which God has endowed her." (Laudato Si no.2) He adds that "The earth, our home, is beginning to look more and more like an immense pile of filth." (Laudato Si'no. 66) Human beings are responsible for the cry of the earth, our sister and mother.
Pope Francis raises important questions that challenge our Easter mission to protect and raise our fallen home and all that live in it.
Easter brings the message of hope to the Jews and early Christians who have been oppressed for years. Easter message therefore speaks against the destruction of peoples, the environment and the planet." TheFijiTimes
