What about God our Father? Perhaps the pope is imitating his namesake and inspiration, St. Francis of Assisi, rather than embracing some sort of "creation" spirituality. We should acknowledge creation as a gift from God; still, can one find similar rhetoric in the Eastern saints? Does he sufficiently acknowledge God as origin of creation, and how one has a greater responsibility to Him than to His creation?
