How to get Christian Conservatives to Conserve Life?

A. Do you agree that Christian Conservatives in the US are

- killing millions and millions of born and unborn children worldwide through their ignorance of global warming.

- conducting gradual mass euthanasia by their mass rejection of publicly managed health care.

- allow themselves to be manipulated by businesses and politics who know how to speak their language.

It has been established that citizens in countries with government funded health care lower costs and live longer lives (http://us.cnn.com/2009/HEALTH/06/11/life.expectanc...

B. What is the motivation behind their support for private agenda that lobbies against public health care and resolution of global warming issues?

Why do they allow themselves to be influenced and persuaded by groups who are clearly driven by greed?

C. Is greed driven Capitalism so important to the Evangelical system of salvation that they run profusely to its defence?

They give the excuse that global warming and social issues should not divert their attention from the business of "saving souls" but somehow they manage to find time and money to fight against, rather than for, resolving these issues?

Are they really pro-Life or a bunch of hypocrites?

Why? Is it because they themselves are the antichrist and the beast that their theology has prophesied that would destroy the world?

How can we get you to change your mind and open your eyes?

Update:

If you purport to have no time for global and national issues at least do not support Palin's and Gingrinch's using religious language against global and national issues. At least, do not spend time to support people who are against global and national resolutions that are pro-Life.

    Why lump all Christians into the same political box - what makes you think all Christians are first of all pro-life according to anti-abortion claims. Has it never dawned upon you that maybe the pro-lifers are louder??

    I am unsure where you get the notion that all Christians deny global warming or are against government run health care - Much to your error not all Christians are republican

    By all means do not satisfy your ego by pretending to know whom and who I should not support politically. I look at their stance on the issues and do my best to pick some one who is the closest to my own ideas. I do not look at theology, religious affiliations nor do I look at political parties. I do however look at past political records, legislative voting records should that be applicable and things that will indicate weather or not this candidate is being honest or is just blowing smoke

    Being capable of thinking for oneself is amazingly independent of political and spiritual beliefs. There are Christians who are incapable of thinking for themselves just as there are pagans and atheist who are not able to formulate an independent thought. Stupidity is a universal phenomenon that can be found through out humanity without regards to economic, spiritual, political or cultural barriers

    When I was a Christian I found it distasteful when preachers would get behind the pulpit to degrade other faiths or spread falsehoods about other spiritual paths, as a pagan I continue to find the practice of spreading stigmas distasteful

    If you want to know why Christians believe as they do then try setting your ignorance aside long enough to objectively learn for yourself.

    Generalizations are never accurate . . .

    A. If global warming is such a concern, then the entire American population is partly to blame. Why aren't liberals giving up their foamy lattes, iPods, iPhones, high fashion and every other luxury they have in this country that consumes hundreds of thousands of tons of fossil fuels and other resources? This "blame the conservatives" crap is getting old.

    And why stop there, we may as well include all of Europe, Australia, Japan, S. Korea. Since most of the citizens in those countries live pretty luxurious lives compared to most of the world, and consume mass amounts of fossil fuels to satiate their appetite for comfort. And then there is also China and India who pollute more than the US, trying to attain the level of comfort and luxury we and the rest of the global north experiences.

    Government managed health care is a disaster. Government and big pharma corps will manipulate you with government run health care and ration it.... duh!!

    B. Greed and lust for power is just as rampant in the public sector as it is in the private sector. The difference between the two is that the private sector is infinitely more efficient than the public sector. Pry the big government teat from your mouth and look at the world through an unbiased lens for once.

    A. Global warming does not exist. Al Gore might as well be called a false prophet.

    Nationalized healthcare actually kills more people (not that I care to worship at the altar of aesclypius anymore).

    People have been manipulated by the lies of the world since Cain and there is nothing new under the sun. That being said, we were told to obey God in all things as Christians, therefore we should have no part in worldly politics.

    B. Christians should not lobby, participate in government, kill people, etc.

    C. We were told as Christians not to care for the riches of the earth as a man may only serve one master for if he attempted to serve two masters he would adore one and despise the other. We must choose God or mammon.

    If you really want to see more love, you should encourage all Christians to read the Bible and obey the commandments of the Lord from the heart not for appearances' sake.

    Faith cannot be legislated, for the state churches have proven that such is false which does not come from the heart but only from the mouth.

    May the Lord bless you and open your eyes that you might see His glorious truth, as expressed through the words of His only begotten Son Jesus Christ.

    3:14 And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up:

    3:15 That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life.

    3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

    3:17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.

    3:18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.

    3:19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.

    3:20 For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved.

    3:21 But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.
