Climate Denial is Immoral, Says Head of US Episcopal Church
The Guardian ^ | March 24, 2015 22:29 GMT | Suzanne Goldenberg

The highest ranking woman in the Anglican communion has said climate denial is a “blind” and immoral position which rejects God’s gift of knowledge.

Katharine Jefferts Schori, presiding bishop of the Episcopal church and one of the most powerful women in Christianity, said that climate change was a moral imperative akin to that of the civil rights movement. She said it was already a threat to the livelihoods and survival of people in the developing world.

The words "denial", "immoral", "global warming", and "episcopal" in the same sentence is rather comical.

Bet they find sodomites parading naked in the name of hedonism and anonymous hookups to be A-OK.

Didn’t you get the word, lady? The Episcopal Church doesn’t do morality any more.

"climate denial"

A weird expression. They have gone from "global warming" to "climate change" to "climate denial", making the "crime" more and more ambiguous and more and more false. NOBODY denies climate change, and "climate denial" means absolutely nothing. If anyone thinks it is possible to prevent climate change, it is progressives, who think they can do it by passing laws.

“... which rejects God’s gift of knowledge.”

That is very rich coming from these apostates.

"Well I for one will not deny there is climate."

Touché. "Climate denial" is an absolutely meaningless expression that refers to the beliefs of no one on earth.

I read his report, I think the recommendation is that if you find yourself having trouble keeping your mind off of global warming denial, try some gay sex to help you get your mind onto something else.

Does this "climate denial" prevail among rank and file Anglicans/Episcopalians?

These are the type that were in charge during the witch trials. It is all about being in control of others.

My guess is the Russians, Chinese and Indians will nuke these immoral crony oligarchs for cooling the planet and sending billions of their people into an Ice Age.

Now,now, we shouldn’t be calling the moonbat priestess nutso. That would be immoral. After all, how dare we question science when it’s superior to outdated nonsense we call “The Word of God”.

She’s a phony Christian, all else that follows is merely liberal conjecture.

Those affiliated with ACNA led an exodus of theologically conservative Episcopalians under the watch of Jefferts Schori, who upset conservatives with theological statements on things such as salvation. In an interview with Time magazine, she was asked, “Is belief in Jesus the only way to get to heaven?” She replied, “We who practice the Christian tradition understand him as our vehicle to the divine. But for us to assume that God could not act in other ways is, I think, to put God in an awfully small box.”

In 2009, Jefferts Schori denounced “the great Western heresy — that we can be saved as individuals, that any of us alone can be in right relationship with God,” which angered evangelicals and church traditionalists.

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/03/27/katharine-jefferts-schori-episcopal-church_n_1380572.html

The movement toward legalizing same-sex marriage and the acceptance of gay people as clergy and lay members of religious groups is “a done deal” that represents “phenomenal” progress, the top figure in the Episcopal Church told The Huffington Post during a recent visit to its newsroom.

...She also said the Episcopal Church “has taken a very nuanced approach on abortion. We say it is a moral tragedy but that it should not be the government’s role to deny its availability.”

The bishop said that much of the conflict over sexuality among Episcopalians and Anglicans — and more widely, among Christians — comes from their differing interpretations of scripture. She warned against taking a strictly literal approach to the Bible.

I wonder what climate science has to say about the great flood of Noah?
