So You Thought I Was Kidding
Under the "I told you so" heading, I saw the following article today in Religion Today Summaries from CrossWalk.Com. The crazy type of "earth consciousness" that is being raised by the global warming advocates borders on religious fervor and devotion. Many have forsaken our God given stewardship of the earth (Genesis 1:26) for the worship of the earth.
'Earth Worship' on the Rise among Evangelical Youth
OneNewsNow.com reports that Janice Crouse of Concerned Women for America is saying that many young people in evangelical churches are disturbingly experimenting with Wicca. Crouse warns that Christian parents and leaders must be ready to counter that growing interest. Wicca involves nature worship and stresses moral autonomy, which are appealing tenets to many of today's youth. Crouse cites an article in Religion Journal which said youth pastors in the Southern Baptist Convention were worried about large numbers of evangelicals taking part in Wicca. "They don't want the church telling them that there are boundaries, [that] there are things that they can't do," Crouse explains. She believes interest in Wicca can be traced to recent books featuring witchcraft and similar topics.
