More good news. A prominent Australian scientist says that global warming stopped ten years ago. Is she right? I have no idea, because I'm not a climateologist. However, like I've said before, Southern Baptists had better read this one and think twice before signing that statement of environmental responsiblity, because Christians will have egg on their face if they keep going along with this new, "hip" environmentalist movement taking place in evangelicalism... It is not to last, I'm sure of it.

These are the same people who agreed on their convention floor to prohibit drinking by their pastors and deacons. So nothing would surprise me.
ReplyDeleteI remember watching the debate on that issue: one man would stand up against the issue and would quote scripture and make exegetical arguments, one man would stand up for the issue and say, in effect, "we now know." "We now know" theology kills us every time. That is something we DO know.a
I believe one of the leading Evangelical, Reformed voices in the realm of Global Warming and Economics is Dr. E. Calvin Beisner. Dr. Beisner has published some excellent articles and books on both subjects - particularly how to approach stewardship of the environment from proper, sound, biblically-centered economics - you can read many of them on the Cornwall Alliance website. Of particular note is Dr. Beisner's article, "Global Warming: Why Evangelicals Should Not Be Alarmed".
ReplyDeleteHe is spokesmen for the Cornwall Alliance who has authored the The Cornwall Declaration on Environmental Stewardship. I commend the preceding links to you for further info.
His background: He has served as associate professor of historical theology and social ethics at Knox Theological Seminary, Ft. Lauderdale, Florida, teaching church history, logic, apologetics, comparative religions, ethics, and the history of political thought, and as
associate professor of interdisciplinary studies at Covenant College.
