Pope Makes Radical, Ridiculous Global Warming Claims

By Faith Karimi. Pope Francis celebrated a historic Mass in Kenya on Thursday before delivering a stern environmental warning just days ahead of a key climate change conference in Paris.

“It would be sad, and I dare say even catastrophic, were particular interests to prevail over the common good and lead to manipulating information in order to protect their own plans and projects,” the Pope said, urging nations to reach an agreement over curbing fossil fuel emissions.

He urged politicians to work together with the corporate and scientific worlds, and civil society leaders in finding solutions to stop environmental degradation.

No country, he said, “can act independently of a common responsibility. If we truly desire positive change, we have to humbly accept our interdependence.” (Read more from “Pope Makes Radical, Ridiculous Global Warming Claims” HERE)

Pope Francis in Kenya Hits out at Land Grabbing

By BBC News. Pope Francis has criticised private developers for grabbing land from poor people, during his visit to Kangemi, a slum area of Kenya’s capital, Nairobi.

He referred to an incident earlier this year when police fired tear gas at children protesting against developers trying to take over their playground.

The pontiff later made an impassioned plea against corruption, saying: “Corrupt people don’t live in peace.”

To take a stand against tribalism, he got his audience to hold hands.
