Today Pastor Tom suggested that it is scary that some people believe in global warming and have the crazy notion that they should modify their behavior in some way.
OK, so I'll concede that the mercury in the compact fluorescent bulbs presents a disposal problem, but they certainly do significantly reduce electricity usage. I'll also agree that a single sheet of toilet paper is insufficient for the task most of the time, but how is using more than you need (of anything) a good thing?
And then there are the tangerines from afar...Exactly how is it a bad thing to choose to eat more of what is local so that transportation and storage demands are reduced? Is God pleased when we blithely continue consuming all that we want simply because we can? Is it too little to have an impact? Surely no act of kindness, or justice is too small or ever too late.
Blog you later,
Pastor Ian
This blog is a direct response to Pastor Tom's Engaging Your World (Click on the title of my post to read his post for that day) I do this not to be contrary or reactionary, but simply to demonstrate that conservatives do not have an exclusive claim on Christian proclamation. When I want to raise an issue instead of responding to Pastor Tom, I do so at my other blog, Culture Dove
