Pope Francis: Earth Is a 'Pile of Filth'

The earth, our home, is beginning to look more and more like an immense pile of filth.

What?

We've put tons of environmental regulations in place.

We recycle now.

This isn't 1971.



We've done things to supposedly protect the environment that have resulted in the deaths of millions of people. We banned DDT.

Let's talk about environmentalism run amok, its politicization, and the catastrophic consequences.

Protect all life.

That means don't kill millions of unborn babies every year.
