Churches continue their spiraling fall into apostasy by joining league with earth worshipers. Last Sunday, many across the world not only pledged to participate in Earth Day activities today, but have increasingly been sacrificing their Sunday worship services to Gaia to show their devotion. Billed as Ecumenical Earth Day, church goers at Christ the King Lutheran Church, Dalton, Ga., instructed their children in the art of making idols for the Earth Goddess; beginning their induction into the craft as young as three years of age.

While both the price and difficulty of fashioning gold no doubt figured in the church’s decision to opt for paper and plastic recyclables to fashion the sacrificial “pig,”¹ it may not be long before the congregation begins melting down their earrings and demands that the pastor cast for them a golden calf. Or will that be a golden globe?

Examining the roots of Environmentalism reveals a religious creed unlike any world view in the history of civilization. It departs from Christianity, humanism, and the philosophers (who gave us logic) by turning the pyramid of all things upside down and placing mankind at the bottom. Here, the lowest rung is not merely a poor showing on our part that can be improved upon with development. Mankind represents, for Environmentalists, the scourge and cancer on the earth that must be eradicated in order to redeem–the earth. In Adam Kirsch’s book review of American Earth, he shows that Environmentalism’s history points to a religious following that truly believes in, and desires to practice, human sacrifice to appease their goddess.

The first jackboot of Global Warming fanaticism hit the floor down under when Australian professor Barry Walters revealed plans for penalizing people who refused to circumscribe their lives by the doomsday theory of global warming. As is usually the case when political factions can’t win the day with facts, they campaign to force their views through punitive taxation coupled with special exemptions for extraordinary compliance. Thus Walter’s $800 annual carbon tax per child for families who surpassed the states two-child limit could be offset by carbon credits earned from voluntary sterilization.¹

Since the Walters leak last December global warming faithful have been scrambling for a microphone and an outrageous new proposal to make. While the competition has been fierce, it appears that New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg has pulled ahead of the pack by renewing his call for global carbon taxation, and adding new penalties for suspected global warmers.

The mayor pitched his worldwide carbon tax plan at the UN’s “Addressing Climate Change: the United Nations and the world at Work” conference. There were few surprises in his call for the UN to punitively tax countries, including America, to create an incentive for them to tow the global warming party line (he wants Americans to levy the tax on themselves, and then turn the revenues over to the UN). The other boot dropped, however, when Bloomberg began drawing parallels between suspected global warmers and terrorists.

Bloomberg likened suspected global warmers to terrorists as having “the same potentials of destroying the planet we live on.”² While the mayor used the tactic of place card switching, substituting the verb of global warming for the people actually in his cross hairs, his vociferous call to action against those who fail to subscribe to the theory of global warming must have been unmistakable to the crowd at the UN. Then Bloomberg got to the point in his discursive sophistry which was to declare hunting season on these enemies of the UN State. “We should go after terrorists every place in this world, find them and kill them, plain and simple,” said the rising master of double entendre.³ To make sure his double meaning was not lost, Bloomberg artfully avoided mentioning that the real terrorists are Muslim, and this no doubt gave the UN despots some villains they could finally draw sabers against.

Quick to lace up and jump on board with Bloomberg in the hunt for suspected warmers was airline mogul Richard Branson, owner of Virgin Atlantic Airways. Branson pledged the financial might of his Luftwaffe, to the tune of $25 million, for scientists to find a “solution” for heading off the impending environmental catastrophe.⁴

This search for a final solution seems to be an eerily recurring theme in the Green Reich, and Branson might be letting slip that he is poised for military maneuvers, of sorts. In what may be an effort to unleash his air force by official UN sanction, Branson hinted at the formation of a global UN situation room form where, presumably, targets could be assessed and air strikes could be launched. “We need a war room,” Branson told the UN attendees, who by that time must have set in rapt euphoria, listening to celebrities and members in United States government competing to find out who could click their heels the loudest. It will be interesting to see in the next round of fanaticism how heil they can go.

Briton’s Environmental Agency has issued guidelines for what to do in an emergency arising from exposure to toxic mercury. This threat is deemed immanent due to British environmental laws forcing the replacement of tungsten bulbs with Compact Fluorescent Light bulbs, or CFL’s, by 2014.¹ Exposure could result when a CFL is broken, releasing 6 to 8 micrograms of mercury.

Mercury exposure from CLF’s will pose a risk to existing medical conditions such as skin and repertory ailments, and can also cause migraine headaches. Health officials are concerned over mercury because repeated and long-term exposure can cause damage to the nervous system, the kidneys, and eventually result in birth defects. A level considered hazardous starts at about 2.8 micrograms in blood test results (2.8 ug/dL).²

This warning from across the pond is of interest to Americans where similar legislation enacted last month virtually replaces the incandescent light bulb with CFL’s in all American households by 2020.

Interestingly, a study published in the Journal of American Physicians and Surgeons in 2006 showed that an increase in mercury-containing vaccines administered in the 1990’s increased neurological disorders in children, including autism which “skyrocketed.”³

Precautions to mercury toxicity include evacuating a broken CFL site for at least 15 minutes, using rubber gloves and sealable plastic bags for cleanup, and avoiding any activity that might contribute to the toxin remaining airborne, such as using a vacuum cleaner. After cleanup, all residues must be taken to an official recycling station.

The mandated death to the incandescent bulb is another example of how Environmentalists continue to profit by the Global Warming message of doom at the expense of the public’s health. The cost of special handling for disposed CFL’s in Briton currently hovers at $1,300 per recycling bin.

For the Global Warming faithful, technology and religious fervor are combining to provide new means for adulation. In order to reduce carbon emissions caused by jet travel, Prince Charles will attend the upcoming World Future Energy Summit in Abu Dhabi via hologram. His three dimensional image will be beamed to the stage and deliver a five minute talk, thus marking a first for the royal family, and pleasing environmentalists.

Charles is not the first world figure to employ the technique of reduction and reanimation. Last year Al Gore made a holographic appearance at a Live Earth gathering at Whembley Stadium.

That the religious faithful of environmentalism readily receive their Icons in obvious simulation, at what amounts to their worship services, is telling for the condition of the world.

Technology and human behavior are showing Bible prophecy to be less a product of metaphysical language and symbolism, and more the literal word of God; explicitly detailing the future. Bible passages that were once wondered at with some perplexity now seem to specify circumstances and events that fallen religious man will easily acclimate to.

Prophecy speaks of two world leaders who are yet to come on the stage of human history and rule by both civil and religious authority. One of them will serve the other in capacity of prophet, magnifying him with miracles:

And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live. (Rev 13:14)

His boss, identified as the Antichrist, will have survived an assassination attempt prompting this religious display. And just as members to the Green Reich are mandating their observances into law today, penalties will also be established for dissidents in the near future:

And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed. (Rev 13:15)

Many in Christendom allegorize these end-time prophecies found in The Revelation, or claim that they were fulfilled by the destruction of Jerusalem in AD 70 by the Romans. But the reality of unfolding world events continues to contradict that view. While no one knows the identity of the coming two leaders, the world is proving ready to follow them when they are finally revealed.

Nothing is sacred to Greens, except their own religion of environmentalism. Every year they become bolder in their attacks on any expression relating to the God of the Bible. This year they’ve set their sights on Hanukkah with a campaign which promotes striking the eighth candle from the menorah. The Greens hope to reduce carbon dioxide emissions, and influence the next generation, by replacing the candle with a global warming infomercial delivered by the parents who are to explain that the candle is being sacrificed to save the earth from global warming.

Hanukkah means “dedication” in Hebrew, and it celebrates the purifying of the temple after it was defiled by Antiochus Epiphanes about 161 BC. Antiochus, angered after hearing that the Jews celebrated after hearing reports of his death, captured Jerusalem and slew over forty thousand people. Then he sacrificed swine on the altar in the temple.

The Maccabees rebelled, and three years later recaptured the temple and rededicated it. In the purification process there was found only enough olive oil to light the menorah for one night. Miraculously, the oil burned the eight days necessary for new oil to be pressed, and the feast of the dedication celebrates this miracle. The story is recorded in the Apocrypha in Maccabees I and II, and is also mentioned in the Bible:

And it was at Jerusalem the feast of the dedication, and it was winter. And Jesus walked in the temple in Solomon’s porch. (Joh 10:22-23)

A confrontation ensued between Jesus and the religious leaders at the feast, just as there is confrontation today between the religious leaders of environmentalism and those who would acknowledge the God Heaven and Earth. One wonders how the Greens would respond to being asked to light a candle for Earth Day.
