Southern fried Global warming hysteria takes first prize
The Southern Baptist Convention leadership is now supporting global warming hysteria. They say the threat is too grave to wait for perfect knowledge about how people contribute to the warming trend. Apparently they think Baptists need to provide support to this junk science inducted hysteria that will cost the world trillions of dollars and put everyone under the management of the world’s control freaks. They say, “Baptists have a Biblical duty to stop global warming”???? Are they nuts??
I would like to know what is so grave about the warming? The .7 degree rise over the last 100 years that might have been reversed last year? Is that grave?? Or is the grave threat to the planet the junk science computer model horoscopes that cannot even model known past climate, yet predict future climate? Should Baptists consider junk science to be a grave threat?
Here, I thought sin was the grave threat to the earth and that Jesus is the radical answer? No. the Baptist leadership tells us the grave threat to the planet is CO2 levels!
Which all proves to me that the Southern Baptist Convention leadership has little discernment on world issues, yet spiritual issues. No wonder they are buying into postmodern theology. Who asked them to tell Southern Baptists what they should support on environmental issues anyway? Next, they will be telling us like the Pope that there is significant evidence for evolution so we we should believe that as well, as long as it does not conflict with our own version of biblical truth.
While I am on my soap box let me just say that the papacy of Nashville already says way too much about worldly issues. They often put their womanly world views in every quarterly magazine used in almost every Southern Baptist Church. Listen you Southern Baptist pastors, have you ever tried teaching the Bible on Sundays in your church without Lifeway’s input? That link will give you much more about what I have to say on that issue.
My suggestion to the Southern Baptist leadership is to get back to teaching the truths of the Bible and stop spending your time trying to help the dead bury the dead!
NEW YORK — In a major shift, a group of Southern Baptist leaders said their denomination has been “too timid” on environmental issues and has a biblical duty to stop global warming.The declaration, signed by the president of the Southern Baptist Convention among others and released Monday, shows a growing urgency about climate change even within groups that once dismissed claims of an overheating planet as a liberal ruse. The conservative denomination has 16.3 million members and is the largest Protestant group in the U.S.

The latest is that apparently the South Baptist Convention have not switched their position on Global warming. These Southern Baptist leaders do not speak for the Convention. What follows is their own statement of clarification.
“For the record, there has been no change in convention policy and despite the media blitz that suggests otherwise, there does not appear to be a groundswell of support for change,” explained Will Hall, vice president for news services for the SBC, a member of the executive committee and executive editor of the Baptist Press. “Jonathan Merritt does not speak for the Southern Baptist Convention. Unfortunately, his use of ‘Southern Baptist’ in the title of his declaration misinforms the public and misrepresents the Southern Baptist Convention.”
