eChurch Christian Blog

I have already posted on this blog, regarding the utter madness of the case, whereby a Judge has declared that ‘climate change’ is legally akin to a religion, here:-

JOYFUL BBC – CLIMATE CHANGE IS A BELIEF….

Pop across for a great article on this theme, from Ruth Gledhill over at the Times :-

When care for the environment is a religion

I particularly liked this comment, which is an issue I highlighted in my previous post:-

If environmentalism is a new religion, one of its adherents is the Archbishop of Canterbury Dr Rowan Williams, who in an interview with The Times urged a return to the ‘dig for victory’ grow-your-own veg lifestyle.

(I commented on a previous article on this blog, that the church exists to spread the Gospel, not shrubbery and a very quick witted commentator said, that we should be sowing seeds in hearts not mud)

And now compare all of this, to a new press release from Christian Concern for our Nation:-

Lord Monckton warns public about dangers to fundamental freedoms at forthcoming UN Copenhagen Summit

Lord Monckton has warned the public in Europe and the United States that the upcoming Copenhagen Summit in December this year will use global warming hype as a pretext to lay the foundation for a one-world unelected ‘communist-style’ government with enormous powers.

Lord Christopher Monckton, a politician, business consultant, writer and former policy adviser to Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher, told a Minnesota Free Market Institute audience at Bethel University in St. Paul, Minnesota on 14 October 2009:

‘At Copenhagen, this December, weeks away, a treaty will be signed — your president will sign it. Most of the third-world countries will sign it because they think they’re going to get money out of it. Most of the left-wing regimes around the world, like the European Union, will rubber-stamp it. Virtually nobody won’t sign it.

‘I have read that treaty and what it says is this: That a world government is going to be created. The word ‘government’ actually appears as the first of three purposes of the new entity.

‘The second purpose is the transfer of wealth from the countries of the West to third-world countries in satisfaction of what is called, coyly, a ‘climate debt,’ because we’ve been burning CO2 and they haven’t and we’ve been [messing] up the climate. We haven’t been [messing] up the climate, but that’s the line.

‘And the third purpose of this new entity, this government, is enforcement’, Lord Monckton added.

The UN Framework Convention on Climate Change is a treaty that most world governments are expected to sign in Copenhagen in December 2009 – including Britain and the United States.

A 181-page working document of the treaty does not mention the words ‘election’, ‘ballot’, ‘elected official’ or ‘vote’ anywhere in it. According to Lord Monckton, by signing this document, all the industrial countries, including the United Kingdom and the United States, will forever take responsibility for the ills of other countries.

Page 6 of the document states:

‘PP.15 Further acknowledging that developed countries have a historical responsibility for their disproportionate contribution to the causes and consequences of climate change, reflecting their disproportionate historical use of a shared global carbon space since 1850 as well as their proposed continuing disproportional use of the remaining global carbon space … Warming of the climate system, as a consequence of human activity, is unequivocal.’

Page 38, ‘28. The adverse effects of climate change and response measures, due to the historical cumulative GHG emissions of developed countries, constitute an additional burden on all developing country Parties (particularly low-lying and other small island countries, countries with low-lying coastal, arid and semi-arid areas or areas liable to floods, drought and desertification, and developing countries with fragile mountainous ecosystems) in reducing poverty, developing strategies to address social vulnerabilities and attaining sustainable development and a threat to achieving the United Nations Millennium Development Goals.’

Page 122, ‘17. (a) Compensate for damage to the LDC’s economy and also compensate for lost opportunities, resources, lives, land and dignity …’

Page 27, ‘(b) Particularly vulnerable populations, groups and communities, [or] All vulnerable groups whose adaptive capacity is low, [or] Groups requiring special protection …’

Page 43, ‘41. (a) Assessed contributions of at least 0.7% of annual GDP of developed country Parties.’ These funds will go directly to governments and ‘community organizations.’

Page 39, ‘33. [The financial burden] must be at least USD 67 billion (in the range of USD 70-140 billion) per year.’

The commitments of the developed countries are ‘economy wide.’ Page 58, ‘7. (a) Mitigation commitments by all developed countries are legally binding economy wide and absolute quantified emission reduction commitments.’

‘(b) Mitigation actions by developing countries are voluntary …’ (Emphasis added.)

Lord Monckton, who disputed whether global warming is man-made, has repeatedly challenged Al Gore to debate him on the science of global warming and asked the High Court to acknowledge nine of the number of errors in Gore’s work called An Inconvenient Truth. Addressing Mr Gore, Lord Monckton said, ‘and if you don’t dare, I want you to remain silent about that subject forever from now on’. Mr Gore did not accept the challenge. Other scientists have also asked Mr Gore to debate the science of global warming and he has consistently refused to do so.

James Delingpole, a broadcaster and journalist for The Daily Telegraph, wrote:

‘You have to be careful when talking about ‘One World Government’. Sooner than you can say ‘Bilderberg’, you’ll find yourself bracketed with all the crazies, and conspiracy theorists and 9/11 Truthers. But I don’t think you need to be mad to be concerned about the issues raised by Lord Monckton in this speech.

‘I don’t know how accurate he is on the specific details, but Monckton is certainly right in principle. The climate fear industry is, I believe, the single greatest threat to national sovereignty (as we’ve already seen under the EU, with its directives on carbon emissions, landfill etc) and individual liberty of our era.

‘I don’t believe in conspiracy theories. Unfortunately, the Climate Fear Industry isn’t a theory,’ he added.

Earlier this week, the Swedish EU Presidency said at the Washington DC meeting with President Obama that ‘the climate negotiations in Copenhagen must not fail’.

In the United Kingdom, environmentalists are celebrating a second tribunal decision confirming on 3 November 2009 that strongly held views on climate change deserve the same level of protection as religious faith.

The Court of Appeal ruled employers should no more discriminate against workers for being green than for their religious or philosophical beliefs.

The new religion of ‘climate change’ really is in the ascendancy and is about to go global and take over the world, by the looks of it.

However, the real worry for me, is that half of Christendom seems to be buying into all of this political ‘climate change’ nonsense and actually promoting and siding with this new ‘religion’. Is it possible that Christians who do this, may actually find themselves riding upon a beast? Human salvation comes from Jesus Christ, not from turning off a light bulb.

Last Friday, global warming’s poster boy, Al Gore, spoke to the Society of Environmental Journalists’ convention in Madison, Wisconsin. After his speech to this flock of propagandists, there was a rare Q and A session. Among those asking a question was Irish filmmaker Phelim McAleer, director of Not Evil, Just Wrong, a movie critical of the global warming movement.

The Global Warming Movement (AGW) has taken on the worrisome attributes of a pseudo-religious cult, which operates far more on the basis of an apocalyptic “belief” system than on objective climate science.

The global waming fear mongers are increasingly being challenged as their predictions are not panning out and their thesis is being questioned by large percentages of the populations in various nations. In a new documentary “Not Evil Just Wrong,”
