I do.

I don't know what the process will be any more than anyone else. But I find no reason to believe golbal warming, manmade or otherwise, has anything to do with the 2nd coming.

Perhaps those young polar bears are drowning just to show their liberal agenda.

Man-made global warming appears to be, like so many politicized "science" issues today, another unscientific theory. Looking at who gains from the promotion of such an unsound idea we find that...

* the idea of a threat justifies or excuses more laws to be passed to "protect" us. Governmental power thus increases and reaches further into our lives even to the point of a secular religion.

* like other such ideas, it is used to set up a mentality of self-righteousness among less-minded people. It sets those who take such an attitude against those who question it. It causes division and ultimately will cause persecution. This is already beginning to happen. This again plays into the hands of those who would wish to control our lives.

We've had enough clues from the fraudulent and baseless teachings of the environmental movement; the fact that a top Green Movement woman turned whistleblower and wrote a book about the real nature of the movement ("communism with a face lift" was how she described it) should alone have been enough to make thinking people wake up and stop being hoodwinked by the same perverse philosophies simply because of a change in name and stated focus. But people never seem to learn from history

I'm not a rampant greenie, but I think wise stewardship is commonsense. If it's practical and useful to do things that are going to make the environment in which you live a nice place then why not? I don't think we need to live in a world without technological advances in order to do that...but I'm bothered by the idea of doing whatever you like. Extremist millitant greenies also bother me and I've heard enough about Al Gore for one lifetime...but anti-evironment is just not productive...I'm pro having a nice spot in the world to live. After what's happened to the Murray River in our foodbowl agricultural area I just don't think anti-environment is sound reasoning. Eating is good. Why would anyone have a problem with that?

I agree - the gospel teaches us that we should be tidy, clean, respectful, love God's creations, use them as was intended, and be wise stewards.

Most extreme movements and false philosophies and practices use good things like this (as a goal) to justify their methods. But in the methods they seek to accomplish something very different...

Being wise stewards requires having a stewardship - it is critical. But bad environmental movements teach that we should have less of a stewardship (property) by either having government take it from us or pass regulations that place it beyond out full control (ownership is meaningless if you cannot control your property).
