Christian Right leaders: Want to protect the environment? You are serving Satan!
A who's who of Religious Right leaders have come together for a 12-part series called "Resisting the Green Dragon" which seeks to expose how the environmental movement is out to control the world and destroy Christianity:

Resisting the Green Dragon is therefore particularly timely because it not only refutes the scientific case for dangerous manmade warming and other "crises," but also exposes how environmental organizations use sophisticated media campaigns and even seek increased global governance to promote their agenda among policy makers, religious leaders, and youth.

"One of the greatest threats to society and the church today is the multifaceted environmentalist movement," says Cornwall Alliance founder and national spokesman Dr. E. Calvin Beisner. "There isn't an aspect of life that it doesn't seek to force into its own mold."

Many well-known Christian leaders agree. Focus on the Family's Tom Minnery joined Family Research Council's Tony Perkins, the Southern Baptist Convention's Ethics and Religious Liberty Commission's Richard Land, Concerned Women for America's Wendy Wright, Home School Legal Defense Association's Michael Farris, National Religious Broadcasters' Frank Wright, WallBuilders' David Barton, and radio talk-show host Janet Parshall in filming introductions and commentary for the 12-part DVD series, which started shipping last week.

1. Because the Creator must love seeing millions of barrels of oil
being spilled into the oceans and killing the Creatures He made. That would make sense.

3. This proves once and for all that the religious right is, itself, satanic
One of mankind's missions is the stewardship of the earth.

4. Some Christians are simply insane, as far as I can tell.
Edited on Tue Nov-30-10 07:20 AM by mwb970
This is crazy nonsense. Why do "good" Christians put up with so much crap being spewed in their name (and Christ's)? It is appalling to me.

Let's play the word association game. When I was young and heard the word "Christian", the first word I thought of was "church". Now, when I hear the word "Christian", the first word I think of is "intolerant". (There's a battle for second place: "Hateful"? "Unhinged"? "Delusional"? It's a tough call.)

How did this happen? Christians didn't use to be like this. The change seems to have paralleled the descent of the republican party into idiotic partisan malarkey. What is happening to these poor sods?

:shrug:

8. I think this track is going to bring the movement down
A lot of you people will not put up with this line of thinking. At least I hope so.

9. How can you complete Revelation if you haven't made a Lake of Fire big enough for most of the world?
It's got to contain "the cowardly, the faithless, the detestable, ... murderers, the sexually immoral, sorcerers, idolaters, and all liars". And Satan. C'mon, guys, these everlasting torments don't get themselves made. And remember, the alternative for the Nice People is a city. Not fields, forests, mountains and oceans. A New Jerusalem, built out of jewels and gold. Not just any old gold - transparent gold. Gold fit to clothe house the New Emperor.

Obviously, any environmentalist that isn't busy hoarding gold, setting fire to the land, and building the most expensive buildings imaginable, is trying to delay the day when Jesus gets to come back and defeat Satan in a worldwide cage fight.

16. Wasn't Earth part of "God's creation" too?
And didn't he specifically say that man was to be its steward?

Another reason conservatism and true Christianity don't mix...
