Re: "Church dumps Enbridge stock in pipeline protest," Aug. 29.
It's encouraging to read that Unitarian Christians are taking a proclaimed stand against Northern Gateway insidious tarsands-oil twin-pipeline project.
As one who's spent some early years extensively consuming much evangelical and fundamentalist Christian preaching and teaching (from the Christian radio station situated in Blaine, Wash.), it's crystal clear to me that such theology does not at all concern itself with a healthy, pristine Earth eco-system.
For, according to the Book of Revelations, Earth is to eventually (perhaps, in many believers' minds, sooner than later) be laid complete waste for a considerable period of time-if not permanently (depending on biblical interpretation).
So, really, why the hell worry about an unhealthy state of the planet's environment-especially when there are so many jobs to be had?
