Fundamentalist Christians are often known for breathing fire, but it turns out they also want to breathe clean air. The New York Timesreports today that the National Association of Evangelicals, a nonprofit organization that includes 45,000 churches serving 30 million people across the country, is circulating among its leaders the draft of a policy statement that would encourage lawmakers to pass legislation creating mandatory controls for carbon emissions.
It is about time that these right wing groups address real issues that affect millions of people. Perhaps, they are finally learning that there is more to life than gay bashing and abortion protests. These divisive issues may raise them lot's of money, but if they would expand their outlook, they might actually be a force for good. The National Association of Evangelicals should continue to broaden its horizons. If evangelical groups would get their noses out of bedrooms and their eyes out of key holes, they would discover a wide world in need of their assistance.

Christians are so well organized, I agree that it is a shame that they can't focus their energy on the greater good, rather than spreading hate.
