Evangelical Christians are being offered free tickets to go see Al Gore's movie, An Inconvenient Truth. The tickets are available at the Inconvenient Christians website. The evangelical magazine, Christianity Today, is also encouraging its readers to go see the movie. It is good to see evangelicals broadening their list of social concerns and this should have political consequences for the Christian Right-Republican alliance. |
Al Gore, Preacher ManWith the urgency of a Baptist preacher with a judgment day sermon, the former politician is spreading the bad news of global warming--including in a new film. Christians would do well to listen up.
Al Gore is back. Not as a political candidate, but as a Baptist preacher with a moral message. His favorite sermon is about the judgment day that will come upon us if we do not mend our ways and stop contributing to global warming. [ ]
I write as someone convinced by the scientific warnings about climate change; other evangelicals have also taken note. I've listened to some of the world's best presenters on this issue and gotten to know Sir John Houghton, the retired climate scientist who for decades led the scientific panel of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC). And because I've been exposed to such careful arguments in favor of taking action against climate change, I found a few things about former Vice President Gore's material disturbing. [ ]
The film ends with two exhortations. One is to visit the film's official website (www.climatecrisis.net). The other is to pray. But when you pray, it says, quoting an African proverb, move your feet.
