Problem is, there's science to back up environmental protection. The biological basis for homosexual preferences is being studied.Very questionable science. It can be shown however the data is twisted to promote an idea. That said, Scripture is scripture. There's no scientific evidence that "God created the Earth and Man after that", nor that there's a "Personal responsibility given by God" to promote Environmentalism, or prevent Homosexuals from having sex with each other. Whether you agree or disagree with either of those things, is irrelevant, as scripture shouldn't be allowed to flow into government policy or ideas either way. If it's wrong for one, it's wrong for the other. If one person states he sees religious purpose in protecting the environment, all that is is a rallying point for other like minded people to participate. It is not a policy mandate And if a religious right wing nut uses scripture as a rallying point for other like minded people to not support gay marriage, it's no different. Again, just because you agree with the result, doesn't mean Scripture should be used as a reason to do anything. It is not entirely driven by religious dogma either, since the science behind it is sound to 99% of the community. No it's not. And again, quoting Genesis to promote Environmentalism is no better than Quoting Genesis to promote creationism. You can't pick and chose when to use Scripture, depending on your liking of the end result. |
