Evangelicals are not immune from dilusion.

Looks like the Salvation Army is off my list of charities now.

And if it turns out that global warming is a phenomena that occurs naturally due to a combination of solar activity, earthly trajectory through space, cyclic transactions between various components within the atmosphere, and all are substantially greater than any human-caused contribution...what then?

The earth has shown to increase and decrease in temperature for billions of years on a cyclic basis. (See Ice Age)

What these guys should do is STFU and stop generating all that hot air.

To bad they don't have the time to pump up some emotion on Darfur. Millions there "ARE" dead.

Sorry to hear that about the Salvation Army. I used to contribute as generously as I could. That's finished. No support to anyone who follows the global warming cult.

Yea, verily, let him who expels not hot air cast the first stone.

Maybe they should stick to something they are supposed to know.

A group of 86 evangelical Christian leaders are reportedly supporting a major initiative to fight global warming.

They are going to stop giving sermons? ;)

"cost-effective, market-based mechanisms" means rewarding companies that emit less carbon monoxide. As opposed to "mechanisms" proposed by Leftists that put liens and higher taxes on non-compliant companies.
If companies want tax breaks to lessen their emissions, so be it.

Makes about as much sense as asking a movie "star" about an opinion about the war. Why would anyone consider these people "experts?"

Global warming is the religion of choice of algore - a divinity flunky. I guess this shouldn't surprise me.

...the leaders include the presidents of 39 evangelical colleges...

It will be interesting to see how many of those evangelical colleges
take a hit in their endowment funds when this gets major press.
(and yes, some will probably get increases)

The inclusion of Rick Warren's name is enough to keep me from supporting them and to doubt the credibility.
