Papa Francesco, #Fratellitutti, paragrafo 45

> “Power is meaningful only if it becomes a form of service,” Francis said, admonishing authoritarianism and greed.
> “Torn by war, the Democratic Republic of the Congo continues to witness within its confines conflicts and forced migrations, and to suffer from terrible forms of exploitation, unworthy of humanity and of creation,” Francis said.

RT @Pontifex: #SaintFrancis of Assisi, who saw himself as brother to the sun, the sea and the wind, sowed seeds of peace everywhere, and walked alongside the poor, the abandoned, the infirm, the outcast, the least. Let us follow his example! #FratelliTutti #SeasonofCreation

Franziskus I: Der heilige #FranzvonAssisi, der sich als Bruder der Sonne, des Meeres und des Windes verstand, säte Frieden aus und ging an der Seite der Armen, der Verlassenen, der Kranken, der Ausgestoßenen und der Geringsten. Folgen wir seinem Beispiel! #FratelliTutti #ZeitderSchöpfung https://twitter.com/Pontifex_de/status/1577244639769333760

> The #marketplace, by itself, cannot resolve every problem, however much we are asked to believe this dogma of #NeoLiberal #Faith. Whatever the challenge, this impoverished and repetitive school of thought always offers the same recipes... There is little appreciation of the fact that the alleged “spillover” does not resolve the inequality that gives rise to new forms of violence threatening the fabric of society.

#PopeFrancis #FratelliTutti after #LaudatoSi #Catholic

RT don Mattia FerrariIn #Libia nuovi #raid contro persone colpevoli di essere #migranti e quindi catturati e messi nei #lager. Il sistema di respingimento e contenimento dei migranti appaltato alle milizie libiche (@rgowans) è una vergogna epocale. Altro che #FratelliTutti. Con @RefugeesinLibya.Refugees In Libya: Yesterday the so-called security forces violently raided homes of refugees living at the #airport_road About 100+ were arrested followed by arbitrary detentions.Their properties all stolen, Libya seems to enjoy these notorious inhumane acts on people, while the world is silent 😶

> The right to laugh without sin had to wait until this day in 1182, when a baby named Francis was born in the town of Assisi.

> Saint Francis of Assisi was born smiling and years later he instructed his disciples, "Be happy, Avoid sad faces, frowns, scowls..."

@alienskyler @thamesynne Coming from the U.S.A. and a Catholic background I got a feel for the attitudes in those surveys. So I've been surprised to enjoy Pope Francis's writings #LaudatoSi' and #FratelliTutti. It took a few years: since Naomi Klein talked about Laudato Si' on DemocracyNow! in 2017, and then a Ukranian environmental journalist woman mentioned her organization of the same name more recently, and #AmitavGhosh, Juan Cole: https://mstdn.jp/@bsmall2/108384113649365311

> ..speak of the need to care for our common home.. planet.. appeal to.. consciousness and mutual concern.. still.. in people’s hearts. Those who enjoy a surplus of #water yet choose to conserve it for the sake of the greater human family.. attain.. a moral stature that allows them to look beyond themselves and the[ir] group.. marvellously human! The same attitude is demanded if we are to recognize the rights of all people.. beyond our own borders.

> We have only one heart, and the same wretchedness which leads us to mistreat an animal will not be long in showing itself in our relationships with other people. Every act of cruelty towards any creature is “contrary to human dignity”

> Life without.. gratuitousness becomes a form of frenetic commerce, in which we are constantly weighing up what we give and what we get back in return. .. he “makes his sun rise on the evil and on the good” (Mt 5:45)..“When you give alms, do not let your right hand know what your left hand is doing, so that your alms may be in secret” (Mt 6:3-4)...“Without cost you have received, without cost you are to give” (Mt 10:8).

@bsmall2@nerdica.net Potatoes for #TheStranger. #SimoneWeil wrote about how education could provide peasants/farmers with ancient words to accompany their work: sowing seeds with Jesus's parables. After #NaomiKlein and #AmitavGhosh got me into #PopeFrancis with through #LaudatoSi and #FratelliTutti, I appreciate Mimata while thinking of the #Bible as an ancient farmer's almanac. I'm also learning that a #Friendica account is great for longer posts, for grouping quotes. #MiyazakiKEn #MimataChou #宮崎県 #三股町

In peace and harmony (peace and harmony), ooh
Instead, we're fussing and fighting (fussing and fighting)
And them workin' iniquity (.. iniquity)

> For “the future is not monochrome; if we are courageous, we can contemplate it in all the variety and diversity of what each individual person has to offer. How much our human family needs to learn to live together in harmony and peace, without all of us having to be the same!”
> Other cultures are not “enemies” from which we need to protect ourselves, but differing reflections of the inexhaustible richness of human life. Seeing ourselves from the perspective of another..

> In the world of that time, bristling with watchtowers and defensive walls, cities were a theatre of brutal #wars between powerful families, even as poverty was spreading through the countryside. Yet there #Francis was able to welcome true #peace into his heart and free himself of the desire to wield power over others. He became one of the poor and sought to live in #harmony with all. Francis has inspired these pages.
