Protecting God's Creation VATICAN CITY (CNS) Polluting or destroying the environment is like telling God one does not like what he created and proclaimed to be good, Pope Francis said. The Bible says that after every stage of creation, God was pleased with what he had made, the pope said May 21 at his weekly general audience. "To destroy creation is to say to God, 'I don't like it.'" On the other hand, he said, safeguarding creation is safeguarding a gift of God. "This must be our attitude toward creation: safeguarding it. If not, if we destroy creation, creation will destroy us. Don't forget that!" Continuing a series of audience talks about the gifts of the Holy Spirit, Pope Francis said the gift of knowledge helps people see creation with God's eyes, recognizing its beauty and seeing it as a sign of God's love for men Nick Sessa Friends at 7 am Communion Service Aurette Rivera Tina Edelmann Ernest Abad Tina Edelmann Thomas Engelhardt Pat Roda & Joe Stella Mike Shannley Joe Stella Jimmy Dupree Joe Stella Jude Tyler Kathleen Castle Loretta Dempsey Kathleen Castle Colleen Castle Kathleen Castle Thomas J.

The gift of knowledge helps people recognize that all things that are beautiful both things found in nature and things that are the result of human ingenuity speak of God, he said. "The Spirit leads us to praise the Lord from the depths of our heart and to recognize, in all that we have and all that we are, a invaluable gift of God and a sign of his infinite love for us."
