Global Warming: Tool of Satan?
"If I decide here as the pastor and our deacons decide that we're going to get caught up in the global warming thing, we're not going to be able to reach the masses of souls for Christ, because our attention will be elsewhere, " televangelist Jerry Falwell said in Sunday's sermon at Thomas Road Baptist Church in Lynchburg, Va. "That's pretty wise for Satan to concoct."
Falwell, according to Ethics Daily, quoted a scientist saying the west Antarctic ice shelf has been retreating two inches a year for 10,000 years. "I would back it up to 6,000," he said.
Falwell predicted that his sermon, "The Myth of Global Warming," would prompt 500 letters to the editor from "tree-huggers."
Only attacks on gay rights, apparently, can win souls for Christ.
