    Re: climate change times are a changin'

    Do Republican bibles just not have all that stuff about taking care of the poor? In their version, do the moneychangers whip out AK-47s in Matthew 21:12 and blow Jesus away?

      It's expected that people take the initiative themselves and not force the care upon the government.

      "One does not simply walk into Mordor. Its Black Gates are guarded by more than just Orcs. There is evil there that does not sleep, and the Great Eye is ever watchful. It is a barren wasteland, riddled with fire and ash and dust, the very air you breathe is a poisonous fume." Boromir

          That was just a cop out so he wouldn't be turned over to the Romans for treason.

            So we're to read Leviticus literally, but take Jesus's own words with a grain of salt. Got it.

              No, I'm saying to take it all wit ha grain of salt. Just look at the situation he was in when those lines were uttered. He's responding to the Pharisees, who were, more or less, the ruling Jews at the time. He's a challenger to them as a religious authority, so he states that he's interestd in God's works, not the governments. He's not giving them any ammunition to go to the Romans to have him declared treasonous.

              Also, I'm an atheist, so I'm looking at this from a purely practical means. God schmod, he was saving his own a**.

                          Interesting this thread has gone into religious talk. Seems fitting since climate change depends a lot on faith of models projecting things out beyond our lives, much like the bible.

                                Good news, everyone. The voters have figured out how to solve climate change.
