That finishes the "Encyclical Letter Laudato Si' of the Holy Father Francis on Care for Our Common Home" except for the prayers which I discussed with the first entry.
Pope Francis having an incredible grasp for the dynamics of the climate crisis has brought his authority to the forefront of stemming the damage to Earth. He wants the planet safe for his flock. He is willing to accept all populous of Earth as God's children and stressing the importance of the right of live to exist. Just exist. He is not transforming every population into some kind of emerald city, he just wants people to exist to make their way through a longevity provided by their Creator.
In his message he not only defends the troposphere of Earth, but, every living thing as a pathway to understand God's mind. He doesn't make light of the faith that is required to understand God and find his favor. There is every reason to find a profound friend in him.
As anyone who visits this blog knows, recently I have been concerned for members of a variety of pagan faiths. Their was a real tragedy within a Wiccan coven in Florida that drove a faith practitioner, according to Florida, to use three members of one family as human sacrifice. I read this article on the NPR website and began to realize there are all kinds of activity that pagans could embrace as a religious sign of some kind. They need to stop and realize how valuable their lives are right here.
Pope Francis is concerned for all people and would never ignore the misguided sacrifice.

...Gaffney (click here) adds that the discovery "has significant implications for our understanding of Stonehenge and its landscape setting."
The survey that found the slightly curved row of large rocks hidden beneath the banks of Durrington Walls used ground penetrating radar and other technologies to find evidence of an earlier phase of building at the site.
Researchers believe the newly discovered stones were pushed over and covered by a large bank as part of the super-henge – an incident that might have helped preserve some of the stones.
"In the east up to 30 stones, measuring up to size of 4.5 m x 1.5 x 1 m, have survived below the bank whereas elsewhere the stones are fragmentary or represented by massive foundation pits," says Professor Neubauer, director of the Ludwig Boltzmann Institute for Archaeological Prospection and Virtual Archaeology.
The new find is the most shocking of several revelations made by Gaffney and his colleagues in the Stonehenge Hidden Landscapes Project. In 2010, they uncovered a "shadow Stonehenge" less than 3,000 feet from the famous monument. And last year, Gaffney described finding 17 ritual monuments in the same area....
