Warm-up For Jesus

The documentary “An Inconvenient Truth” about Al Gore’s one-man crusade against global warming got a frosty reception from some Seattle parents recently. The film was to be shown to a seventh-grade class in a Seattle suburb, when protests arose over the “propaganda” film. One parent voiced his anger and was successful in stopping the viewing.

It turns out this parent’s complaint was not that the film argued that global warming existed but instead he had a problem with the premise that pollution was the cause. His belief is that the warming of the planet has nothing to do with the burning of fossil fuels, etc. but is actually being caused by God as a prelude to the return of Jesus to the planet and a Day of Judgment as predicted in the Bible.

Apparently, the planet is being warmed to make it a little cozier for Jesus.
