It might have been more beneficial for congregations to get help becoming Christians.

"This is an opportunity for us to send a message out that we care for the world" - is this the only thing you can think of doing to get that message across??

Still an organisation of it's size buying solar panels might help the eco-economy and their own fuel bills if nothing else.

Does this mean that they are turning Kafflick?

Christians have the choice
to put their faith in God and Jesus the maker of heaven and earth who said "Take no thought for tomorrow, what you should eat or drink but first seek the Kingdom of God and his righteousness and all these things will be given you aswell"
or
put their faith in a group of scientists who do not fully understand how the climate works and are only partially sure they know what is going to happen in the future based on models that only include the bits they do understand.

Putting faith to work or being politically popular? What would Jesus do?

#4. But did Jesus (if he existed) REALLY say that?? How do you know?? Or was his ghost-writer putting words in his mouth? Or was it only an attribution? Don't say it was a divine revelation cos that every bit as hard to swallow as blind faith!

Yes, I do believe that Christians are called to 'make disciples of all nations' - but we are also stewards of creation. Whether or not you believe that the case for global warming accelerated by human factors has been proven (which I do, as it happens), we need to look after the buildings in our care and do so as economically as possible. I don't want to waste congregational funds on heating that could be much more efficiently and (in the long term) cheaply provided by renewable means.

Why not burn all the corrupt, child-molesting vicars, priests and the people who shelter them and make excuses for them ... enough fuel there to keep a power station going for centuries.
