The social gospel has found its savior

Intellectual Conservative

by Thomas E. Brewton

 

"Regrettably, well meaning Christian ministers like Rick Warren are

supporting Mr. Gore's junk scientism and the power of man over the

earth, rather than sticking to faith in the one True God as Creator

and Regulator of the cosmos.

 

In so doing they are verging perilously

close to the social gospel, a phenomenon of the late 19th and early

20th centuries. The social gospel reflected the rising popularity of

the secular political state and its presumed capacity, when properly

structured on the socialistic model, to produce earthly salvation

without need for God and the Holy Spirit." (01/02/08)

The idea that global warming is caused by man is indeed junk science IMO or as many scientists are calling it 'science by concensus'. It's quite apparent to me that it's just yet another issue that certain people/groups are using to gain even more control of our lives. I despise many secular folks with that bent every bit as much as I do those religionists who feel they should rule the world also. There are a good number of pet issues of the so-called 'left' out here I am against just as I am the christian 'right'. There's no exclusivity with me there. Everybody today seems to have an agenda, whoever they are. Usually the more liberal issues themselves I have no trouble with, it's the way they seem to often be going about things by a form of force that I am growing more and more opposed to. I won't tolerate some s.o.b. at the UN attempting to enforce their ideas upon me any more than I will some lout in a church.

Yeah, idiot scientists. Pouring garbage into the atmosphere and toxins into the water is good for us. What'a those damn liberals know.

No doubt that goes on, and always has. But scientifically, one cannot just find something 'bad' going on and draw a straight line to the conclusion that man is causing global warming. I myself am so-called 'liberal', but I hate labels and 'camps', because just like the fundy Christian 'camp' there are 'liberal' 'camps' of people who draw conclusions based upon emotional reactions. And unfortunately, there are scientists who do the same thing. I may not be christian, but I don't connect a vehement disagreement with the secular worlds conclusions about global warming to any particular religious beliefs. I just have done my research and found out a whole lot of insidious BS about these people just as I finally did about the religious side of things in my life. There's alot of malarkey flyin' around. However, for those who buy the whole 'man made global warming' theory, fret not, it appears to me you'll have your wish. Our government and many others around the world are hurredly passing laws based upon something that we keep hearing 'the jury is out' on daily. Something smells fishy about that to me and not a little disturbing. Just one man's opinion.

"There's alot of malarkey flyin' around."

 

IMHO that's because we should've taken notice decades ago, and as usual the powers-that-be have waited until the situation has gone to shit before noticing anything amiss. Or, more pointedly, waited until it made a political difference and brownie points before addressing the issue.

BTW, I'm a transplanted buckeye myself. :D

You may be right par, as of yet I am just not convinced. BTW, where from in Ohio? Cincinnati here.

Born in Dayton, lived in Miamisburg. Moved to Charlotte area young (Dad's from here) but went back to Cincy area, Blue Ash, for a while in the 80's. I was a cable tv system designer, and worked on the Qube system when it was brand new.
