From the article:

"Humans must be proactive and take responsibility for our contributions to climate change--big and small."


With all due respect, what in the world?

Certainly the Southern Baptists did not write that government speak what-ever-that-was-supposed-to-be.

Attention all Baptists:While you are being “proactive”, make sure to keep your hands out of my pockets.

It's probably boilerplate text lifted straight from Agenda 21.

The SBC already did their part to combat global warming years ago when they went along with St. Paul and told their wimmin folk to shut up.

*running*

I do not understand how these and other idiots can adopt the tenets of the GoreBull church when there is more and more scientific evidence that comes out everyday and refutes the high priests tenets

Uh...why are Southern Baptist leaders concerned about the Global Warm scam at all. Shouldn’t they be focused on saving souls rather than engaging in junk science politics?

Always comforting to see that stupidity is non-denominational.

Anyone here old enough to remember Hadacol?

"Hadacol was a patent medicine marketed as a vitamin supplement. Its principal attraction, however, was that it contained 12 percent alcohol. . . ."

Big seller in dry regions of the Border States and the South where beer and whiskey were not allowed. No one knew about that 12 percent thing -- or didn't care. It made them feel good.

The Federal Trade Commission complained that Hadacol's leeringly prurient ballyhoo ("The Hadacol boogie makes you boogie-woogie all the time") is "false, misleading and deceptive" in representing the nostrum as "an effective treatment and cure for scores of ailments and diseases."

Does just feeling good for awhile count?

Don't know why I thought of Hadacol. . . .

There are some good guys on that list. Also some very notable absences. Glad the absences abstained from getting involved in the propaganda.

Never trust anyone who uses the word ‘proactive’.

It's morally apprehensible to spread fear and cause undo economic stress.

Looks like LEftist have infiltrated the Southern Baptists as well. Fight them. Don’t let them use this wedge issue to get a toehold.

The signatories pledged to do their part to fight global warming "without any further lingering over the basic reality of the problem or our responsibility to address it. Humans must be proactive and take responsibility for our contributions to climate change--big and small."

It looks like the Southern Baptist leadership needs "adult supervision." They cannot recognize a hoax and fraudulent claim. This is not to say that we do not have a responsibility for responsible environmentalism. We do have a requirement to husband our resources, but accepting the scientifically UNSUPPORTED premise that mankind is responsible for global warming is sad indeed.

Several prominent leaders in the Southern Baptist Convention said Monday that Baptists have a moral responsibility to combat climate change -- a major shift within a denomination that just last year cast doubt on human responsibility for global warming.

Forty-six influential members of the Southern Baptist Convention, including three of its last four presidents, criticized their denomination in a statement Monday for being "too timid" in confronting global warming.

"Our cautious response to these issues in the face of mounting evidence may be seen by the world as uncaring, reckless and ill-informed," the statement says. "We can do better."


Late to the party as always. They need to stop aping the world.
