How can a person who believes in a God rationalize
   
that it is OK to destroy God's creation? How can they believe they love their children while leaving them a polluted trash heap? How can they believe they care about life when they care nothing about anyone other than the unborn. How can they not be concerned with the limits of the Earths resources?

My God, just how stupid can they get?
Do they actually believe that us freepers want to destroy the planet?
Do they really think we want poisoned water and air?
I have news for you morons, we live on this planet too. Just because we don't believe that SUVs and cow farts are destroying the world, does not mean we are out to destroy this planet. In fact just look at the difference between when we have our protests and you have yours.
We pick up our trash and leave the place nice and clean, you goons trash everywhere you gather, and many times have left behind costly damage. I would think mother earth worshiping hippies would at least put their used water bottles in recycling.

5. i hope people realize that millions of christians haven't believed in
   
the false choice between science and their faith for ages.

for me the fault -- in part -- lies with the reluctance of christians not being willing to criticize unaffiliated evangelicals like billy graham some time ago.

they should have -- they didn't.

I am not personally a Christian but, the ones I know believe in actual science. Not the made up bullshit that is nothing but a scam to make some people very rich all based on false guilt that you goons eat up. Not one of you can explain to me how paying carbon credits will do anything to fix the earth.

24. They justify it in accordance with Genesis 1:26
   
Genesis 1:26 Then God said, "Let us make man in our image, in our likeness, and let them rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air, over the livestock, over all the earth, and over all the creatures that move along the ground."

Because God gave man dominion over all the earth, man can do whatever the hell he wants with it.

That is their justification.

If you mean doing whatever the hell he wants means actually using natural resources, then you are right.
This whole notion that anyone on the right wants to **** up the planet is so stupid it's not even funny.




I may not lock my doors while sitting at a red light and a black man is near, but I sure as hell grab on tight to my wallet when any democrats are close by.

“Don’t vote for the person who tells you you deserve something. Just don’t do it if it’s something other than life, liberty, or the pursuit of possible happiness. If everyone is telling you you deserve something, vote for the one who is promising you the least. Be suspicious of the man or woman who tell you deserve everything. Because you don’t.” ---Mike Rowe

The Velveteen Ocelot said concerning conservatives, "Because they're all gonna be raptured this May."

Well.....the DUmmies will be ruptured this May because all the taxpayers will be gone..... :lmao:

My Spidey Sense tells me that DUmbat RegieRocker just got some new and very powerful pot.
When you are the beneficiary of someone’s kindness and generosity, it produces a sense of gratitude and community.

When you are the beneficiary of a policy that steals from someone and gives it to you in return for your vote, it produces a sense of entitlement and dependency.

You realize just how simplistic their world view is when you read a thread like this. Good lord, have these people lost all sense of nuance?

Lack of nuance implies naivete and naivete implies innocence of motive.

Good lady, I cannot subscribe to your theory.
According to the Bible, "know" means "yes."

Speaking of Job, the Stephen King mini-series "Storm of the Century" has a quote about Job that always makes me laugh for some strange reason: "When his life was ruined, his family killed, his farm destroyed, Job knelt down on the ground and yelled up to the heavens, "Why god? Why me?" and the thundering voice of God answered, There's just something about you that pisses me off."

A person who believes in God knows Who made those natural resources and gave them to mankind.  If God didn't intend us to use them, why would He make them?   :lmao:
