A different take on 'climate change'

Glen Scrivener asks, "And really – who’s running this show? Christ or carbon?"

Glen also shares another incisive observation about the Gospel of Climate Change:
Walking through a London train station yesterday I had to weave my way through hundreds of protestors. . . . And at least 20 000 gathered in the capital to remind us of this: we’ve got the whole world in our hands.

Maybe it’s coincidence but it’s pretty close to a Guardian headline this week that said, regarding Copenhagen, “Our destiny is still in our hands.”

Wouldn’t we love that to be true!? How we long to be this world’s solution! And therefore, however costly it might be, we are eager to cast ourselves as the problem. . . .

The cost we seem willing to pay to keep ourselves at the centre beggars belief.
Indeed.
