Please watch this to the end, sign up for the campaign, and, dare I say. recommend this please.

This could be vitally important if it gains enough momentum.

1. This is a great venue for him, he has a wonderful speaking voice

and is easy to understand. This is a perfect niche for him, he comes off totally differently than we usually see/hear him. Great message well said.

[HeresyLives]

2. Good ad.

Using his position for something that matters.

3. NICE!

He's got great resources, eh?

:bounce:

5. It is good to see people getting involved in campaigns

to help protect the environment.

However, I am surprised at their choice of symbol, it is a bad choice for millions of 'end of days' believers in a few different denominations. In Revelations it uses the term frogs as a symbol for unclean spirits.

I know many people believe differently, and things can be interpreted many ways, and the Prince of Wales even says what he considers the symbol to be. I am not saying that is what I think it means either, but I do know there are millions in the USA that would probably flinch on that one. I even remember a conversation once with a person on that topic about the Muppet Kermit on SNL(seriously).

The idea in the clip seems to be good people working for a good cause. and I think some worry about the end times too much, sometimes with fear or self righteousness. I don't worry about the end times, nobody knows the day of the Lord, and until then every day is just another opportunity, with its own challenges and things to work on.

One of those things to work on is the environment, so it seems good that the Prince of Wales and others in the video are getting involved in a good cause.

8. for real?

I mean, who really cares what end time believers think?

[RandomThoughts]

12. Well I think I care about what everyone thinks. In some way.

Since the way people think, effects the way they act, which theoretically could effects parts of the world. But that might be a bit pompous to say.

Maybe its better, in that it might help some think on how they interpret.

9. The actual quote is

"And I saw three unclean spirits like frogs come out of the mouth of the dragon, and out of the mouth of the beast, and out of the mouth of the false prophet."

Note the word "like". The idea being that the unclean spirits look like frogs, not that frogs are unclean spirits.

Frogs are one of the planets barometers of health - one of the first species to respond (negatively) to changes in environment. The Amazon is also full of frogs with many many unique species. Some are even medicinal. All are very beautiful.

11. I do not believe the frog symbolism in the video is the same as in Revelations,

and the Prince of Wales even directly mentioned it was a symbol of ecology.

I was only commenting that there are lots of people that will see it from the point of view they want to, and will take a bad take on it. Its interpretation, something that happens, most times because of the way people want to think.

I just wanted to point out a side effect of the choice of symbol with some groups.

[SemperEadem]

14. and that is why I said what I said

there are lots of people that will see it from the point of view they want to, and will take a bad take on it. Its interpretation, something that happens, most times because of the way people want to think.


who cares what they think? People are going to think whatever they want to think--but it doesn't change the truth of the matter. If they want to stop their analytical processes at the sight of a frog, then anything they think after that has been discredited and their opinions aren't worth the time it takes to listen to it.
