They exchanged the truth of God for a lie,
and worshiped and served something created instead of the Creator,
Romans 1:25 HSCB
There are 2 groups of the GREEN Religion: (akin to "Mainline" & "Fundamentalist" Christians)
The "Mainline" Greens: (eco-modernists DENOMINATION)
"On one side are the pro-energy, pro-density humanists. They call
themselves ecomodernists and are led by the Breakthrough Institute, a
centrist, Oakland-based environmental group. On Wednesday, it released
what it describes as an “ecomodernist manifesto,” a document that, at
root, states the obvious: Economic development is essential for
environmental protection."
The "Fundamentalist" Greens: (climate justice DEMONINATION)
"On the opposite side are the anti-energy, pro-sprawl absolutists.
Their views are evident in the ongoing protests this week in Harvard
Yard. A group called Divest Harvard is pushing the Harvard Corporation,
the school’s governing body, to divest the school’s $36 billion
endowment of any investments in companies that provide coal, oil, and
natural gas to consumers. This group’s
manifesto, issued in February, demonizes energy use.
manifesto, issued in February, demonizes energy use.
The absolutists like to use the squishy term “climate justice.”
They believe that the threat of climate change trumps all other
concerns, including the welfare of people living in energy poverty. For
the absolutists, the only path to salvation is through the exclusive use
of renewable energy.
The anti-energy, pro-sprawl absolutists — a designation that, in my
view, fits the Sierra Club, 350.org, Greenpeace, and Natural Resources
Defense Council — are anti-nuclear, anti-hydrocarbon, and anti–hydraulic
fracturing. They routinely peddle slogans such as “fossil-free” and
continually claim that we can rely solely on increased efficiency and
renewable energy. They push these claims despite overwhelming evidence
from Germany and Japan that shuttering nuclear power plants and relying
too much on renewables results in higher electricity prices and
decreased reliability."
