It is high time Evangelicals did find a strength in Environmental Justice.
The frequent and devastating Nigerian Oil Spill.
People get cancer from being exposed to crude oil on their skin.
It is carbon.
It is absorbed by the body. The carbon of oil is absorbed through the skin readily.
If Evangelicals are finding purpose in environmental issues, I am not surprised. After all we live on God's Green Earth. Earth is currently under assault by human misuse and greed. I suppose that is stating misuse twice, now isn't it.
The following are articles that are worthy of attention to people who morally value Earth. We don't need oil. We need a healthy planet and a benevolent way of living with it knowing there are over 6 billion people alive today. The expired carbon dioxide of those respirations need to be respected and not the profits of oil companies that thrive in war torn and police state areas.
