The environment is again an important election issue. Some candidates have claimed religious support for their views, but there is no single "Christian" perspective on the environment. It is a question of fact and prudence, not theology. ...more

The CBS program "60 Minutes" aired the "Age of Warming." It was an attempt to scare everyone into the global warming camp. I believe there is more theory than fact in the presentation. They should have given equal time to those scientists who disagree with the theory they presented. CBS also went out of their way to blame the administration for editing some of the reports. The reporter even said he could hear the ice melting. What he heard was water running. I don't believe you can hear ice melting. You can hear water hit something solid when dripping. ...more

As one who has preached the gospel for over 40 years, I could not agree more with Dean Johnson's letter of Dec. 6 concerning global warming. Dean writes: "God controls the world's temperature not man. God controls the climate, the earth's eco-system and our environment, not man. Dean questions why evangelical Christians are caught up in trying to save the earth. I also question that. The one verse of Scripture, known by more people than any other, is John 3:16 "For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish, but have eternal life." The word "world" does not refer to the planet earth but "people." God has called Christians to save people from their sins not to save this earth. ...more
