Really his position is not to take political positions... His position is to sort out matters of the Catholic Church... How about advocating for the ones in the Middle East who are being slaughtered.... Or children who are being sold into slavery.
Stop wasting time on climate change and start advocating for the things that are affecting people now. Human trafficking would be a great start.
He is my pope.... And I am tired of the nonsense he spews sometimes .... He needs to know his role... Start advocating for people without a voice... Not for big money interests pushing for gov giveaways for climate.
Is the Pope not the head of state for the Vatican? That's a political position, not just a religious one. The Vatican is a theocracy and the Pope is the head.
