Gianfranco Cardinal Ravasi on Nature and the Year of Mercy

Gianfranco Cardinal Ravasi, President of the Pontifical Council for Culture and President of the Pontifical Commission for Sacred Archeology, today declared * In this year of Mercy, Our Holy Father desires we speak words of Mercy, Kindness, Compassion, and Love and The Holy Father has extended that intention to all men, to all creatures, and even to Nature herself who, says The Holy Father, no longer, may be said to "abhor a vacuum," but who, it must be recognised , actually welcomes any foreign entity or thingy or whatever that chooses to fill that vacuum whether it be a bee a butterfly or the questionable smell of some creepy poopy pants who has just landed at Lampedusa.




* We at ABE Ministry have been assured by ABS that those are the actual words of the Cardinal even though we remain somewhat skeptical.

Says ABS, Look do you think this is just something made-up or do you think that he said those words or, at the very least, has thought about saying them?
