I would say that if there were such a thing as sin, it would be very sinful.

It's a nice gesture I suppose.... although a nicer one might have been spending some of the Vatican's US$10 billion reserves on environmental protection measures.

Perhaps during his regular chats with God he's found out that the end of days isn't imminent after all and that we might be needing this earthly realm for a while longer yet.

This article says absolutely nothing whatsoever about the Vatican spending anything on the environment or on environmental protection.

Catholics obviously aren't very good readers.

I don't know, they didn't think much of it, I met Catholics who still don't
Avatar shinychris Feb, 20 2009 at 10:25 PM
Huh?
Avatar Leah Feb, 21 2009 at 06:46 PM
Apparently in the Catholic faith..people still think on their own term...the only way for it to be a belif if majorty of Catholics agree or else its just something written

Harry, I agree...he wants us to care for the envirmoent yet he over populates the earth
Avatar Halskiisaklink Feb, 20 2009 at 09:18 PM
Thanks both of you. And he doesn't care much about AIDS prevention either.
Avatar Leah Feb, 21 2009 at 06:00 PM
No he doesn't teach African how AIDS are speaed...trying to convice women to be nuns...I am Catholic, but I don't trust Catholic schools..they taught that Abstance is the only way not to get an STD...luckly I want to a public school/

Considering we didnt know what we were doing to the environment until recently, I would say he needs to reread his bible, as to what a sin is.


What about all the ones before us, who had no clue?

This is a diffrent Anoymus who asked the question.
Didn't God say he made the world in his own image
Isn't everything God made to be honored
This is a diffrent Anoymus, and I'm not normally for the Pope, but I agree.
If you disagree watch the Sunset, and it sounds like the other Anyomus is answering the questions.

I asked for the scripture where it says it is a sin.

I don't give a damn what the pope says. He must be captain obvious, because it's apparent destroying the environment is harmful. But it's not a sin to everyone just because he made up this new rule. He just says something is a sin to keep people in check. I appreciate his attempt at "going green" though lol.
