Global Warming a Myth ?

Jerry Falwell has done it again. Sometimes I wonder who is worse, this guy or Pat Robertson. On Sunday, Falwell delivered a sermon in which he called global warming a myth. According to him, it's a dangerous area that Christians should stay away from. The only thing we should be concerned with, he said, was saving souls. In other words, save people from hell, but to hell with the planet itself. It reminds me of the homeschool scene in the movie Jesus Camp, in which a parent instructs her child that global warming is just something those evil liberals made up.

Though you can find a link to this story on any number of news websites, I liked this one from a blog, which actually quotes Falwell in detail.

God says . . . ?

Pat Robertson is in the news again. This time, claiming that God spoke to him of an upcoming disaster to hit America this year, possibly killing a million people. How many times is this guy going to do this ? What really worries me is that there are actually some sincere people in our country who will really believe that God spoke to him. What happens when they want to turn this into reality? Scary !

I guess that I haven't realized how much I have changed over the past several years. Anyone who claims to be so certain and absolute about anything, especially faith and religion, frightens me.
