The letter is signed by top officials of the National Council of Churches, the Islamic Society of North America and the political arm of the Reform branch of Judaism.

I thought the article said the letter was signed by religious people?

Further on...Rev. Joel Hunter, a board member of the National Association of Evangelicals, also signed the letter, though that group has not officially taken a stance on global warming due to opposition from some of its more conservative members.

Christian, Jewish and Muslim leaders

Most Christians are lead by Scripture. I don't see global warming in scripture.

I find it arrogant when I hear them regurgitating this pablum, replete with all the Libspeak, leading the sheeple to believe it is written in stone. The Martian ice caps are also melting and unless they can put SUV’s on Mars; Houston, we have a problem. Perhaps a little more research is needed before we go “chicken little” on this. :)

Religion is man’s attempt to reach God on man’s terms. I believe the people who signed the letter fall into that category.

...the changing climate is a "moral and spiritual issue."

It's a geologic issue, not spiritual. The earth's temperature has been rising and falling since long before the advent of either politics or religion, or for that matter, man himself.

We'll be back in the stone age at this rate. A few thousand years from now, the universe will have gone through billions and billions of changes....and we just sit here pondering how to change it some more with so little knowledge of how it really works except for what we can see or think we see.

Can someone tell me what happened to the "scientifically predicted" hurricane disasters the year after Katrina....that never happened??

It's May and we're still freezing in Upstate New York!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
