Just as evangelical representatives, including bishops from the Catholic Church, are drawing attention to climate-change issues, right-wing preacher Jerry Falwell is decrying global warming as "Satan's attempt to redirect the church's primary focus" from evangelism to environmentalism.
"Naive Christian leaders," in fact, have been duped—DUPED, I say—by dirty hippies like Al Gore. "An Inconvenient Truth?" HAH, it should be called "A Convenient Untruth," Oscar be damned! (See what he just did there?)
Falwell also told his Baptist congregation in Lynchburg that the Bible teaches that God will maintain the Earth until Christ's second coming, so although Christians should be responsible environmentalists (eh?), they shouldn't devolve into what he calls "first-class nuts." ::WRIC Richmond News
