Baptists, Catholics Becoming Crazy Tree-Huggers

Both the Southern Baptists and the Catholic Church are taking public steps to promote the crazy idea that the Earth is worth trying to keep clean and perhaps even save.

All of this despite the coming rapture.

The Catholic Church has come out and listed "causing environmental blight" as one of a set of new modern sins (never mind the weirdness of coming out with new, more modern sins).

Southern Baptist leaders have declared that the church has a biblical duty to stop global warming. In addition to this positive development they threw in a little caveat that supporters should not promote sinful activity such as abortion for population control (!) as a way to combat global warming.

Hmm...I was wondering about that population control effort because it's a really great idea!
