God and Climate Change

25 Nov 2010

Josh Marshal (full story):

Rep. John Shimkus (R-IL) is running to be the head of the Energy and Commerce Committee, which has a key role in climate policy. And he created a stir a couple weeks ago after he reiterated his belief that global warming is not a problem because God has promised he wouldn’t destroy the Earth again after Noah’s flood.

We should not elect public officials who believe we can do whatever we want - and then count on "God" not to let us screw things up too badly. Even if you are a Christian I think this verges more than a bit on fatalism.
