Global warming gap among evangelicals widens - CNN.com:

Why do we even listen to these people?
"We have observed that Cizik and others are using the global warming controversy to shift the emphasis away from the great moral issues of our time, notably the sanctity of human life, the integrity of marriage and the teaching of sexual abstinence and morality to our children," said the letter, which was signed by prominent religious conservatives such as James Dobson, Don Wildmon, Paul Weyrich and Gary Bauer.
These people make decisions believing The Rapture is nearly upon us. Thankfully the decision makers in this story chose the right path. But so much in the above article just defies logic. Abstinence only education does not work. The part that really bugs me is that anything about evangelicals makes the news. I don't care what kind of internal debate they are having. These people don't consider reality when it comes to policy. They should not be listened to.
