Thank God for the Christian Right, and the fiery fortitude that fuels its furious ferreting out of the ever-wily ways of the enemy.
Guess who God’s new avowed enemy is?
No, not the gays. Pfft. C’mon. The gay issue is so 2010.
Now our heroes in the crusading vanguard of the Christian right have in the focus of their eagle eye the soul-destroying cult of environmentalism.
Recycling is for the damned, brothers and sisters! Fuel-efficient cars are the devil’s work! The only alternative energy that environmentalists will ever know are the fires of hell!
Oh, you question this? Really? So the devil already has you grasped in his slimy green talons, has he? Well, it’s not too late! If you are so shamefully unfamiliar with God’s will that you doubt environmentalism is “one of the greatest threats to society and the church today,” then go right now to the website Resisting the Green Dragon. There you will find the fruits of the labors of “some of the top Christian leaders and scholars in America,” who have selflessly given of themselves, so that you might be able to purchase from them, for the special, 10%-off, pre-order price of only $71.90, the 12-part DVD series, Resisting the Green Dragon, “A Biblical Response to One of the Greatest Deceptions of Our Day.”
Yes, you have to poke around the site quite a while to discover that it’s really only four DVD’s. But it’s twelve half-hour lessons that you can use in your church’s Sunday school classes, adult-education classes, Bible classes, and small group meetings. And it comes with a 30-minute “bonus documentary”! And a book that’s sure to contain a great many complete sentences. If that whole eye-opening package isn’t worth $$71.90 plus shipping and handling, then I’m a monkey’s uncle.
The video below will show you what Resisting the Green Dragon is all about. (Take particular note, during the video’s heart-poundingly frightful opening, of the image of the Soviet sickle and hammer, fleetingly shown at the end of the intoning voice-over’s “… environmentalism is striving to put America, and the world, under its destructive control.” Hit the pause button at 0:09, and the truth will be revealed to you: that’s no hammer inside that sickle! It’s the propeller of a wind-powered electrical generator! Why, if that’s not further proof that Obama is a socialist, I don’t know what is.)
Remember, friends: If you don’t think environmentalists are in a Satanic cult seeking to undermine everything that good Americans hold dear, then you’re just not thinking at all.

Well that video was 3 minutes of my life I’ll never get back.
When did wrecking the environment become a holy mandate?
almost a couple years ago, this article (by a professor i don’t remember) was emailed from my college:
http://www.visionandvalues.org/2010/01/a-moment-of-illumination/
it bothered me even more than their attempt (by a guy i thought was one of the more intellectual profs in the whole place) at a charitable reading of Sarah Palin’s memoir/ personality/ intellectual values. (http://www.visionandvalues.org/2010/02/the-education-of-sarah-palin-a-review-of-going-rogue-an-american-life/)
it may feel like a difference of opinion, and maybe it is… but the first time i plugged in some LED christmas lights, i was delighted by the fact that (1) they wouldn’t get hot so if they were next to a curtain it would not start a fire, (2) i could leave them going every night and it wouldn’t run up the electric bill, and (3) they were *SHINY*, which, even though i was sort of trained to not celebrate holidays, i still have always loved the shiny. i feel like this guy is just saying what he thinks he ought to believe about LED lights, if that makes sense.
meant to say, after those 2 articles i never could manage to take the V&V mailings seriously again. the emails from the school are NOT living up to the level of critical thinking that was instilled in me in my GCC education.
I just learned that if you have small birds like chickadees in your bushes, old fashioned heat wasting lights may help them live through winter.
But I much prefer the safety of LEDs myself, I bought them for my parents, who just can’t seem to wrap their heads around the idea that Christmas trees are flammable.
Maybe I’m a disciple of Satan, but I prefer the blue hue of the LED to the sickly orange of incandescent
@ marilyn: that’s a misconception. The pagan religions simply do not make the distinction BETWEEN the Creator and the Creation that the JudaeoChristian religions do. Ie, Divinity (by whatever name) is immanent – here, with us, present in the Creation. The Creation is the body of the Creator.
that’s actually a really neat idea when you put it that way.
Cat, I read your posts with admiration. You have a wealth of knowledge. Thank you for using humanity’s history to put things in perspective.
