PRAISE THE LORD! Evangelical Climate Initiative!!! It Is About Time!
Edited on Fri Mar-17-06 06:55 PM by leftchick
I am shocked....

http://evangelicalclimateinitiative.org/


"For by Him (Christ) all things were created: things in heaven and on earth." (Col. 1:16)


The same love for God and neighbor that compels us to preach salvation through Jesus Christ, protect the unborn, preserve the family and the sanctity of marriage, and take the whole Gospel to a hurting world, also compels us to recognize that human-induced climate change is a serious Christian issue requiring action now.

To make clear our views and commitment, as evangelical leaders we have issued the statement Climate Change: An Evangelical Call to Action. We invite you to read and reflect upon it and share your views with us.

We also encourage you to take action today to address climate change. We believe the problem is serious, but that cost-effective solutions are available that will also create jobs, clean up our environment, make us more efficient, and reduce our dependence on foreign oil, thereby enhancing our national security. Working together, and with God's help, we can make a difference.

3. What pisses me off the most about them...
...is how nothing seems to matter to them unless it becomes a "Christian" issue. What if they were, lat's say, bankers. Would you put up with people who said they didn't care about anything unless it was a "banker's issue"? I'm happy they've finally come out of their stupor, but taking care of the earth is a matter of responsibility, and they have dodged responsibility all along.
