Papal Notes - Helene, Milton & Francis

"It is heartbreaking to see the devastation left behind by hurricanes Helene and Milton. Catholics are using these tragic events to promote Pope Francis’ climate encyclical, Laudato Si’. Rome cannot let a good crisis go to waste.

Catholic-run Religious Formation Conference published a warning

called “Catastrophic Storms Mean Climate Action More Important than Ever,” connecting Laudato Si’ to the recent hurricanes and the complete devastation they have caused to our nation. They are also using this tragedy to renew their calls to petition policymakers to pass legislation to protect our environment.
The Religious Formation Conference expressed the following:
• “The world has witnessed the devastating effects of natural disasters on communities near and far. Most recently, Hurricane Helene and a tornado outbreak spawned by Hurricane Milton tore through coastal regions, leaving absolute destruction in their wake. Severe floods, landslides, and other climate-related events have ravaged countries around the globe, claiming lives, displacing families, and destroying homes.”
• “Pope Francis’ Laudato Si’ reminds us that the Earth is our common home, entrusted to us by God. The damage caused by these storms reminds us of our responsibility to protect the planet and live in harmony with nature. Human activities such as pollution, deforestation, and the burning of fossil fuels are key contributors to climate change that are feeding these catastrophic events.”
• “What You Can Do to Protect the Planet and Fight Climate Change: Advocate for Change – Support legislation and policies that promote environmental protection and the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions. Engage with local leaders and policymakers.”

Q: What is Rome’s answer to the climate crisis? 

A: They want to bring the laws of the world into line with Catholic doctrines, traditions, and values. 

Catholic climate change activists were so eager and couldn’t wait to link these recent natural disasters to Laudato Si’. The widespread

desolations, the upheaval, and the unrest we are witnessing today—marked by increasing division, moral decay, and the breakdown of societal norms—can be seen as part of a larger, darker pattern preparing the way for the rise of the Antichrist—the Papal power. According to Revelations 13, 17, and 18, the final universal world order will be characterized by chaos, confusion, lawlessness, and a global longing for peace and stability, making it the perfect environment for the man of sin to seize power with the help of the United States.

Be ye also ready: for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh.’ Matthew 24:44."
