Identity of the BEAST: Those "birds"?

Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, 
and is become the habitation of devils, 
and the hold of every foul spirit, 
and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird....
For all nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her fornication, and the kings of the earth have committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth are waxed rich through the abundance of her delicacies…..for thy merchants were the great men of the earth; for by thy sorceries were all nations deceived.
Revelation 18:2,23

*Just a sidenote---Interesting that Francis of Assisi is the patron
saint of birds and he is what the current push targeting the
merchants and governments of the earth is based around-- the Green Movement....it's the name the architect of the movement has named himself after....


From Papal Encyclical Laudto Si'-----
"I do not want to write this Encyclical without turning to that attractive and compelling figure, whose name I took as my guide and inspiration when I was elected Bishop of Rome. I believe that Saint Francis is the example par excellence of care for the vulnerable and of an integral ecology ... He is the patron saint of all who study and work in the area of ecology, and he is also much loved by non-Christians.....The urgent challenge to protect our common home includes a concern to bring the whole human family together.....The climate is a common good....Humanity is called to recognize the need for changes of lifestyle, production and consumption, in order to combat this warming or at least the human causes which produce or aggravate it....Everything is related, and we human beings are united as brothers and sisters on a wonderful pilgrimage, woven together by the love God has for each of his creatures and which also unites us in fond affection with
brother sun, sister moon, brother river and mother earth
....An integral ecology is inseparable from the notion of the common good, a central and unifying principle of social ethics.....Interdependence obliges us to think of one world with a common plan....As Benedict XVI has affirmed in continuity with the social teaching of the Church: “To manage the global economy; to revive economies hit by the crisis; to avoid any deterioration of the present crisis and the greater imbalances that 
would result; to bring about integral and timely disarmament, food security and peace; to guarantee the protection of the environment and to regulate migration: for all this, there is urgent need of a true world political authority, as my predecessor Blessed John XXIII indicated some years ago”..... In calling to mind the figure of Saint Francis of Assisi, we come to realize that a healthy relationship with creation is one dimension of overall personal conversion, which entails the recognition of our errors, sins, faults and failures, and leads to heartfelt repentance and desire to change. In this way, we will help nurture that sublime fraternity with all creation which Saint Francis of Assisi so radiantly embodied....Saint John of the Cross taught “all things are God”....On Sunday, our participation in the Eucharist has
special importance.
Sunday, like the Jewish Sabbath, is meant to be a day which heals our relationships with God, with ourselves, with others and with the world. Sunday is the day of the Resurrection, the “first day” of the new creation, whose first fruits are the Lord’s risen humanity, the pledge of the final transfiguration of all created reality. It also proclaims “man’s eternal rest in God”. In this way, Christian spirituality incorporates the value of relaxation and festivity......And so the day of rest, centered on the Eucharist, sheds it light on the whole week, and motivates us to greater concern for nature....Everything is interconnected, and this invites us to develop a spirituality of that global solidarity which flows from the mystery of the Trinity."

So the Question Arises, 
Q: Could the Papal Encyclical of Laudato Si' (the Green Papal Encyclical) be used to assist in the push of forming Spiritual Babylon?
The Modern Environmental Movement is old fashioned Mother Earth Worship wrapped up for the sophisticated modern man.
The Merchants of the Earth (Global Corporations) and Kings of the Earth (Politicians) seem to be drunk on the Wine of it (Climate Change).
Laudato Si' calls for honoring a day for Father God and for reducing our so-called carbon footprint for mother earth.
--A foot in both camps--
For those who think the world is to secular, to divided to enforce a counterfeit Sabbath Globally in the name of the Christian God--there is a way on the Political Landscape--
--one side could do it to honor an "angry Father God" during calamities and 
--the other could appease an "angry Mother Earth" to reduce our so-called Carbon Footprint---hence COMMON GROUND FOUND---this is just a personal observation.

It will be declared that men are offending God by the violation of
the Sunday-sabbath, that this sin has brought
calamities which will not cease until Sunday observance shall be strictly enforced, and that those who present the claims of the fourth commandment, thus destroying reverence for Sunday, are troublers of the people, preventing their restoration to divine favor and temporal prosperity
E.G.W.
