Global Warming Splits Evangelicals

An article (but not a particularly good one) on the split within the Evangelical community over Global Warming, with a new group, the ECI (Evangelical Climate Initiative) coming out in favor of the science behind GW, and in favor of taking action to reverse its effects. Another, better article, which I have linked to before, can be found here.

Clearly, this split signals an opportunity for the progressive community and the parties associated with it to reach across the usual political boundaries and appeal to non-standard constituencies. In the Canadian context (but the analogy is not perfect) you can see this with Lib Leadership candidates courting the environment friendly but socially conservative supporters of David Orchard, with Stephane Dion finally coming up with the endorsement.

Busy day. This might be it for posts. Will see what happens with the Tory Teen Lesbo Sex Manual tomorrow.
