Evangelicals take on global warming?
Please let this story from the Denver Post be true:
A national poll of 1,000 Americans who identify themselves as evangelical or born again indicates strong support for environmental protections. Three out of four of those surveyed support policies to reduce global warming or prevent destruction of wilderness.

Wow, I would love for this to be true, but it just seems so unlikely, given what I know about Christian folk...
Taken from Donald Miller "Searching for God Knows What"...
"The person who believes the sum of his morality involves gay marriage and abortion alone, and neglects health care and world trade and the environment and loving his neighbor and feeding the poor is, by definition, a theological liberal because he takes what he wants from Scripture and ignores the rest."
"Does the contemporary evangelical model of sin and morality reflect the teachings of Christ? As a flea is a part of a dog, but not to be confused with the dog itself....Does Jesus like liberals more than conservatives? He will be nobody's flag."
Unfortunately the political evangelical platform has hijacked what many of us Christian folk live and believe, don't lose hope that this statistic might just have some truth to it.
