Look, I'm not gonna get into a debate about God and evolution.
I'm merely pointing out that the same people who believe that every change in the environment is "destroying the delicate balance of nature" also believe in the evolution of life to adapt to changes in the environment. Yet, they want us to curtail our activities in such a way as to freeze that same environment in place. And just for fun, they set up Christians as a convenient strawman.

Environmentalisim is as much a religion as any. Just because it's the religion of many in the media, don't mistake it as "science".
And there are plenty of climatoligists that dispute global warming. And plenty of scientists who would relish the chance to study the evolutionary changes it would bring about if GW turns out to be true.

Christians are being blamed for pollution? That's one I haven't heard before. (Seems like the desperate victimology of certain sects is resulting in some pretty imaginative persecutions.)
