Now, in Laudatio Si, Francis quotes the passage in the Gospel of Luke, in which Jesus says of the birds that “not one of them is forgotten before God.” Francis then asks: “How then can we possibly mistreat them or cause them harm?”
如今，在《赞美你》中，方济各引用了《路加福音》的内容——耶稣说鸟类“在上帝面前从未被忘记。”接着，方济各问道：“那么，我们如何能够虐待它们，让它们受伤害？”这是个很好的问题，因为我们确实在虐待它们，并且是大规模虐待它们。
