Hooray. There’s a disturbing misanthropy running through so much of the environmental discourse (which is typically without God of course). Here, as on other key issues, you show how the church provides a passionate and deeply wise approach to this mighty problem that avoids the pitfalls of the ideologies that caused so much suffering in the last century. Sincerely, from London

Caring for the environment is actually very pro-life because as the biosphere collapses millions of human lives will be in danger.

Breaking In The Habit one of my bigger concerns is global warming. Imagine massive droughts that leave people unable to grow food or other extreme weather events such as hurricanes and floods wiping out or at least damaging populated areas. Millions to billions of people could die, lose their livelihoods, or be unable to find refuge when they can no long survive as a result of various environmental issues. This issue is definitely a pro-life one

Good reflection on care for creation

I have leaned that there are so many things each person can do to live green! Thanks for posting this.

I have no idea at all why taking care of the environment is considered controversial. It just makes sense to take care of the resources that we all depend on for life, like clean air, clean water and soil.

What a wonderful coincidence! I've read this book recently until today. There is only a final chapter. I don't want to read it quickly, because it's too tremendous to skip in shortly. Pope Francis recommended every important issue on several social parts. I'm so thankful about the whole words from him... Well, people should read it. It's a gift... maybe from our Lord. Also I appreciate you for this v-log.(from South-Korea, sorry for my poor language, bye!)

My two cents, in St Francis' time society was largely Catholic so when people in the church used the terms like "brother sun" or "mother nature" it was understood that nature does not really have a "will" or a "mind" in itself but rather a manifestation of the will and mind of God. Today however in our largely Godless society the ideas of God are warped and twisted with the result that people, and even some within the church believe that nature is a 'God' in itself with a will and a mind of its own. That's why I believe, in our current times, using terms like "mother nature" isn't helpful and that is what I think most traditionalists mean when they say the term is 'pagan'. Using the term in itself isn't sinful but there is a large probability it will be misinterpreted.

Wonderful Presentation of the Laudato Si book.. the last chapter of this book is suggesting to have unity. One religion for short.. each one to celebrate with the so called holy Eucharist, which makes the Sunday as the Lord's day which is exactly opposite from what the Scripture says that SABBATH Saturday is the Holy Day. Let us be wise in these last day! Our life should be guided only by the Scriptures..

There's nothing "pagan" about this.

Well some have connected Luadato Si with allegiance to the green agendas of the United Nations. The part of the UN agenda for environmental conservation is good but if another part of such agendas also include birth control on poor nations through abortion and contraception, it is ambiguous to Catholic teaching that it also destroys human lives. Sacrifice of children to pagan gods is an ancient pagan norm, even in the Old Testament. The whole ecology stuff is politicized with other agendas that’s why we should look at them with scrutiny. I consider myself as a conservative but do I want to do cleanup drives on beaches or plant trees? Absolutely 100%. I have eco bags every time I went to the grocery. Though all of creation is to be redeemed in the second coming, trees, animals, mountains etc are not be elevated in a way that they would partake in the divine nature of God like humans are destined to be. The book of Genesis states that man was created in God's image and likeness but not the same was said for the rest of creation. Therefore human life is still way above that of a tree but that is not to say we should deforest for greater profits. The care and conservation of the environment is very essential but the salvation of souls is of greater importance. And now they want us to confess our “eco sins” too? It is ridiculous. As much as we ought to preserve nature and be responsible, "Mother" Nature is also a creature and NOT to be seen as divine. It is to be taken care of but not revered as you would revere God. Pope Francis was right in his introduction talks about mother nature being a “sister”. God is our common Father of course. He was also right in a lot of what he said in the document but the tone he used elsewhere somewhat reveres nature like when he said that the pandemic was nature having a fit instead of referring to the possibility that this is a chastisement from God. That is pantheistic and pagan in its inclination. The Pope could issue Laudato Si but NOT ally himself or the Church with the UN that promotes contraception, birth control and worst of all, abortion. To top all that, the Pope was present last year when the Pachamama idols from South America were brought into the Vatican and there at the Vatican gardens, pagan ceremonies were held, with some people, including a Franciscan priest even bowing to the idols with Francis being there, not even condemning that abomination. Regardless of your political view, if you are a Christian, you'd know immediately there was something very wrong there. If there are cultures who still worship nature gods and see nature itself as divine, we should not be OK with that as that is pagan and deplorable. They need the Gospel as it is only through the Name of Jesus Christ that we are to be saved. Pope Francis has said very little if ever the need to convert the whole world to the one true faith in Jesus Christ as much as he talks about ecology. He even signed that Abu Dabi pact stating that God wills all religions. Nonsense. Let us pray for the Pope, pray for the Church, be responsible to nature but even more loving to human life.

​@@ramirreyes6414 Hi, I really appreciate you taking the time to write all this but I'm afraid you're still missing the point I talked about in my comment so let me rephrase it. People are already dying due to changes in ecosystems (respiratory conditions linked to air contamination, hunger caused by drought or floods, you name it). Aren't we failing God by letting this happen? The climate change death toll is and will continue to be way higher than the number of abortions. I'm not saying we should let abortions happen, but mathematically, we will save way more souls focusing on climate change than abortion. I think we need to recognize that, as a global society, we've put ourselves in a very complicated situation and we cannot win on every front now. What's for sure is that if we lose the battle against climate change and loss of biodiversity, we lose on every front because... we're dead. And because we failed God big time by destroying the only ecosystem in the universe that can support life.

Leïla Six I agree. Abortion is horrible and millions of people have been lost to it, but abortion is but a symptom of a larger human problem: our desire to consume and throw away. Our desire to have personal and fast transportation, products that are resource-intensive and that pollute, a bag of candy that we enjoy for a few moments just to discard an unrecyclable wrapper, or buildings built on top of essential ecosystems that do simple things like produce oxygen, filter water, or prevent flooding and erosion are just a few examples. The people of this world need an overhaul in their interactions with everything (God, other people, and nature) so continuing to solely dwell on abortion will only bring up political divisions and nothing will get done. Abortion is a crime against God and humanity but the modern human desire to consume is far more devastating.

I'm no longer a Catholic, I never was I could argue, but I really am amused by how much Pope Francis is doing. He is going beyond the theological theory and he is actually acting to change the Church and give hope for a positive change. The only odd thing is that while me as an atheist admire that, my father and other catholics hates it and say he should stay in his lane. Its confusing to say the least.

He is right.

Thank you, Father Casey. It has always saddened me why a lot of people do not understand what Pope Francis is saying in his book. You have explained it in the clearest way possible. Thank you very much. Father, so many of my friends have left the catholic faith and became born again (christians/protestants/baptists/pentecostal/evengelists) they tell me in so many ways that our baptism is not from God and not at all mentioned in the bible. They keep quoting the verse about Peter saying about being "born again in water and spirit" they tell me also that the Holy Rosary is a form of Buddhism and witch craft. I do not know how to defend my catholic faith when they question it. I know that the Catholic Church is the true Church and I will never leave it. Father, can you please defend Mama Mary and the Holy Rosary. Thank you and God bless you always.

I think automation is good as long as it allows people to move upward to find a job that not only satisfies their material needs but also their intellectual and spiritual. Many factory jobs have transformed persons into machines for the sake of maximizing productivity

In New Age movements we do find a wide diversity of people, varying from those who believe cancer to be a self-inflicted problem in terms of the so-called personal karma, to people that got lost, discouraged by rusty conversations with and evil deeds by the church, but still are on the search for genuine spirituality. Among them, we both find extremists in selfishness, as well as people of good will. Words, spoken about those who consider themselves affiliated with such movements rather should come with a warm invitation instead of a judgmental label. It's here that we touch a deeper problem. In our discourse, we become schematic for the sake of understanding structures and streams. The danger, however, is that, by doing so, we also are prone to disregard the human context of each individual. People are contextual beings, by definition, in terms of their cultural backgrounds, their upbringing, their gender, their faith, etc. I am happy, Father Casey, that in one of your other vlogs, you quoted Mother Teresa when she was asked about her opinion about homosexuals. She immediately put homosexuals back into their most sacred context: "Beloved children of God". Shouldn't we do similarly toward those who are roaming around in certain areas such as the New age movement (which, btw, is an unprecise "umbrella term".)? Catholic church might find quite a lot of sheep out there, desperately are longing to rejoin the flock again.

Amen

This is very good, i think some things weren't fully covered so right now, I'm going to read that.

Words are powerless when looked at individually but they have the potential for good or evil, when someone who can properly use them to his or her advantage. That is what Nathaniel Hawthorne quote means, and I fully agree with him. An example of words being used for evil could be a dictator trying to convince his people that he is best for the country. An example of words being used for good could be a civil rights activist trying to persuade people to get along and to treat everyone with respect no matter what race they re Though words can also be used for evil by anybody just by using profanity. Those words can make someone furious and the person succeeded in insulting them. The same goes for words used for good, anyone can give a compliment and can make someone happy. Words are innocent when looked at individually even Nathaniel Hawthorne states that they are powerless and just stand in a dictionary. Words cannot effectively be used for good or evil when they are individually used, but when they are combined they become different. An example could be the word filth, it means dirty but when used with you and are, they become an insult which can hurt anyone’s feelings. Words are pointless if you cannot have other words used with them to create a good or hurtful statement. Like how I showed, words are effective only with other words and if a person who knows how to effectively use words can easily use them for a good or evil cause. Throughout history, words have been used for both good and evil purposes. A good example of words being used by a man who knew how to use them for evil purposes was Adolf Hitler. With his speeches he was able to convince Germany that Jews were evil and that they needed to create the perfect race. The effectiveness of his words caused much pain and suffering to innocent people, but if he did not know how to effectively use words, nobody would have listened to him. A good example of words being used for the good of America during oppressive times was Martin Luther King, Jr. He was able to persuade people to treat everyone equally no matter what color their skin was. He was able to effectively use words to support his cause and because he knew how to use them, he became a civil rights icon. Words can also be used to persuade someone for a good or bad reason. The reason could be minor things from trying to make you buy a product to making you do something you might later regret. I have been persuaded many times throughout my life for both good and bad because somebody was able to use words effectively. One time I was persuaded into believe that taking a dollar or two from my mom’s purse was okay because she would give me the money anyway. The person (my brother) was able to use words for evil and made me believe something that wasn’t good and for him to buy ice cream. A time I was persuaded for good was when I was helped my aunt move her belongings when she bought a home. My mom used words for good by making me do something that would benefit my aunt. Words can also be used for good or evil on any advertisement. Advertisements try to persuade you to buy a product, whether its for a good or bad cause depends on your beliefs. Commercials try to make you buy any product from food to cars they are not doing anything evil, but if you do not like something that they are trying to sell, like fur coats, then you may believe that they are evil. Advertisements can also be on magazines, newspapers,etc., and they also want to make you buy or join something. It depends on what is being advertised to determine if its good or evil like an ad for the armed forces, patriots would think its good, while other who hate war will think its awful. The words used in the advertisements have to be effective or else no one would support the cause or buy the product. Persuasiveness has also affected my life in both good and bad ways. My mom is easy to persuade because I can use words that can make her believe that she is doing the right choice, so if I want something I just have to use the right choice of words and I always get what I want. Like the time I was able to get my PS3 only a week after I got The Wii. My mom being easy to persuade has also had its bad times. My father was able to persuade her to get a two door car even though there was four members in my family. It was annoying doing the extra work to get into the car just because he used the right words so he could have a more appealing car. Words have also affected many stories like the book I recently read called Bel-Ami by Guy de Maussapant. The main character George Duroy used words to seduce married women for his selfish desires. He did the same thing to two married women and a soon to be married wealthy woman. He told the three of them that he was madly in love with them and that his heart desired them. He was able to pretend to care for them but he only wanted to fulfill his needs. He was a successful writer for a newspaper called the Vie Francaise, which gave him the ability to use words for his benefit. When he needed to get rid of his wife to marry a wealthy women he caught his wife committing adultery with the minister of foreign affairs. He had two mistresses on the side but being the way he was he was furious and wanted to destroy the minister’s credibility so he did it with a simple article and after that he was of no importance. Speeches and everyday conversations can be good or evil because they can end in an argument or to a happy talk. Speeches are usually written to persuade or inform and they have to be written by someone who can use words, so they can either be good or try to persuade you to go against something. Everyday conversations can be good or bad. When couples are just talking and one of them says something they didn’t mean, it can start an argument which is not good. They can also be good, like during a conversation someone could give another a compliment and it can have good results. The quote has some significance in my life because I want the ability to make people believe what I say. If I could use words to my advantage I could persuade people to do things I want and make them feel like they are doing the right thing. As of today though I have very little persuasive power. I am very easy to persuade when it comes to peer pressure because I like to please people especially if its something that would make people laugh. But when it comes to more serious matters I am rarely persuaded. Also words really do not affect me because I really do not like talking as much as I enjoy fighting. Nathaniel Hawthorne’s quote makes sense to me and I can support it with personal experiences. Words have been used for both good and evil purposes throughout history. The quote does have some significance in my life but not much.

THANK YOU :) This is such a current and very important subject. I trust most of us are aware and together we can make a difference.

Love how you explain this! I had no idea there was so much here. I've Always wondered how several highly compassionate people who I deeply respect are fine with abortion but won't touch honey because bees are people, too. (Eating plants only is great, it's just that people who say they quite seriously hold those two sorts of beliefs at the same time confuse me so much!) I want to read the whole document now!

Coming from one of the most affected poor countries by climate change, the Encyclical also challenges rich nations who don't take responsibility on how they have deStroyed the environment and in effect my country.

It is good for us to care about the environment just like it is good for us to care for our own bodies which is part of the elements as well. And our bodies are also the temple in which the Holy Spirit lives in. Notwithstanding, we are to Love the Creator more than the creation, evil people will love the creation more than God. God the Holy Spirit tells us in the Holy Bible "They exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshiped and served created things rather than the Creator-- who is forever blessed. Amen. Romans 1:25🌿📖🌿 🌿 And Christ also said_ the universe and Earth will pass away, but my Words will never pass away.

Good video, but one minor nitpick: your use of the word "technocratic" =/= how the term is normally and traditionally used, and could be confusing--I prefer using Bp. Barron's neologism of "scientism" as the modern world's cultural obsession with the sciences and fallacious belief that science is the supreme or only form of truth. Technocracy was/is a specific form of totalitarian government regime that was proposed in the US and, like Fascism and Marxist/Stalinist Communism, gained traction during the Great Depression, though unlike them has never been accepted by any actual regimes and, while popular in Science Fiction, as a real political movement died out quietly during the Cold War. Like how Fascism took the ideas of us-versus-them Nationalism and Social Darwinism to its logical extreme and Marxist/Stalinist Comunism took the ideas of Class Warfare and Redistribution of Wealth to theirs, Technocrats advocated for taking militarized bureaucracy, academia and technical expertise to their logical extreme by granting control of all aspects of society to technical experts rising through a military-style ranked hierarchy on the basis of aptitude tests, skill assessments by their superiors, and data analysis, plus an emphasis on self-sufficiency and isolationism of each new technocratic state. While the root fallacy used to justify the technocratic worldview, scientism leads to a wide variety of other political philosophies as well, so it seems weird to name the fallacy after just one of those groups, particularly when the name of the group literally means 'rule by experts,' not 'rule of science'.

Wow! Loved to read what you have written! Thanks! Last line - 'rule by experts' versus 'rule of science' is really the big difference, and no wonder scientists and their way of how world should work, hasn't been able to gain as much traction, at least in India (place where I come from).

Is there a possibility for some scientists to practice Astro-ecology? Thanks;) God bless you;)

Thank you finally truth be told on this page ☺️

Fr Casey I have a big doubt on vocation , please guide me , tell me where to contact you like email or ....

In the very first chapter of the Bible, we learn that God created the world and all the animals, and said they were good. Who are we, then, to decide they're actually worthless and disposable?

We need to care for the environment because in revelation Gods kingdom comes down with all the spirits.

Speaking on behalf the pope in "Laudato Si" and his defense of our environment is a noble exercise. However, when you point out the pope's mindset in "Laudato Si" when he says "We must be like the saint who saw all of God's creatures not in regard of their utility but as ends in themselves", I find a hypocrisy in his position of silence on the subject of the Chinese government's abuse of 1 million Uighur Muslims according to a signed document by 70 faith leaders from across the world. Pope Francis did not sign. See RNS Religion Service 8/11/2020 article by Claire Giangrave. This silence about the plight of these people according to FP News "Pope Francis's Silence on Xinjiang Speaks Volumes, a pope dedicated to human rights has said nothing on China, thanks to a secret deal with Beijing", appears to fall into the category of using them in regard of their utility. One could argue that he's saying these Muslims are not God's creatures (referencing back to the "Laudato Si" statement).

If we love God, we will love his creation too.

Can you be the next pope, just get 50 years wiser and become a cardinal.

While I appreciate your explanation of the Pope's "meaning for the world" especially chapter 3 I do not like the globalist view by world leaders. America needs to do better in chosing leaders that avoid the globalist view, puts faith and family first again and then the love of all of God's creation can become second nature.

@Michel Martinez the problem with inclusion is that once we go down that road we end up excluding the very people and ideas that founded the church. Christ did not go to brothels and other sinful places to call taxpayers and prostitutes. They came to him because they were tired of the pleasure they were seeking not giving them the fulfilment they were yearning for, the vast majority of tax payers and prostitutes in jesus' time did not come to him because they were still caught up with the pleasures of their sin and had no desire within them to seek him. Today the modernists would have the church water down its message to make sinners feel at home with their sin within the church rather than encourage the sinner to change his ways and that is the ultimate goal of inclusion.

@@laetitiaprotais6326 You missed my point. I did not say Jesus did not go to them I said Jesus did not go to the BROTHELS and call them. Not to say that Jesus cannot manifest his presence in even the most sinful of places but that while He was incarnated on earth he did not go around begging for people to follow Him and making His message more palatble and acceptable so no one would feel excluded. He knew He was the truth, the way and the life and people genuinely seeking that would seek Him, and he would meet them, and even if it seemed that he went to them, in reality they went to him, they responded to the call of God to seek him and he met them where they were, and then called them to a higher standard. Those who were still enjoying their life of sin and had no desire for change were not going to seek him no matter what, He would not and still will not mess with free will. This by its very nature is exclusive by default. The Church has always recognised this and any attempt to make this message more "inclusive" by watering-down the teachings of Christ and the Magisterium to either make it ambiguous or more "acceptable" is a rejection of the very nature of Christ Himself. Christ call is a call to come out of a life of sin and a complete transformation rather than just a superficial sentimental crutch. He did not compromise his message to the death, and entrusted it to us, it is absolutely shameful when we simply throw that away because we want others to think better of us.

'Laudato Si' is a fine document . For a human government or a dedicated environmental organization. It is not a worthy mission statement for the Church Universal.

I’m just going to go ahead and assume you haven’t read it. Only someone who hasn’t read it would think that it’s an “environmental document” and not rooted in the integral dignity of the human person and responsibility to be stewards of creation, of which we are all interconnected in God. It’s a profoundly Christian document.

A jolly good attempt to save a rather poetical yet deeply flawed pontifical teaching e.g. 'Enforceable international agreements are urgently needed, since local authorities are not always capable of effective intervention. Relations between states must be respectful of each other’s sovereignty, but must also lay down mutually agreed means of averting regional disasters which would eventually affect everyone. Global regulatory norms are needed to impose obligations and prevent unacceptable actions, for example, when powerful companies or countries dump contaminated waste or offshore polluting industries in other countries.' Francis, Laudato Si', 173. When these political arrangements are agreed and then enforced, yet contrary to Catholic Teaching, which shall the Church follow - the global regulatory norms or the principles of moral reason that is the Faith .... if the recent worldwide malaise is an example it must always be the enforceable international agreements not least on local communities; a lesson few have bothered to consider let alone learn.

Using Machines simply does not remove the need for work. If that was true the unemloyment would be higher in less developed countries than in the poor countries. But it's actually oposite. Machines support human work and allow for more efficiency and productivnes. Se everyone rich and poor are better of thank to industrialisation.

💖💖💖💖💖👍

cool video

But Fr. Casey, surely the Bible teaches that Man is to be Steward over all Creation and thus, is Lord over all Creation? Was that not Adam's responsibility? Laudato Si seems to be attempting to remedy Man's disregard for Creation's dignity by arguing that we are equal with Creation but I think the issue is not that Man sees himself as superior to Creation. I think the issue is that Man believes that because he is superior, he can do as he will, disregarding the very question of whether or not Creation has a dignity to be upheld. The remedy to Man's abusive Lordship should be the request for a benevolent Lordship, not an abandonment of Lordship in favour of equality. At least, that's how I see it. Interesting video, nonetheless.
