A new series has come out actually claiming the green movement is false religion. Interesting.

Of course, there are disclaimers that creation care is good, but “radical environmentalism” (as they define it) is bad.

So where is the line?

Let’s start with the basics. God made everything. He called it good. He expects us to take care of it. I think that pretty much sums it up.

There are certainly extremes in the green movement as with any large movement, but I would rather side with recyclers than those who call caring for the environment as false religion.

What do you think? Please sound off and comment below. Thanks!
