Two hilarious but sad things from the FRC

Article on the FRC trying to get pastors to do "civil disobedience" and tell them not to vote for Democrats.

And....if you're not crying or laughing enough....

Here's an article from them saying "Down to Earth Day." Because any action to protect the environment is "environmental extremism." My favorite quote though is, "The crisis du jour is global warming, but even that is just another excuse to fund "Planet" Parenthood and similar groups. Stewardship of God's creation is the responsibility of every Christian. But we must realize that there's a greater threat to the environment than climate change or scarce resources--and that's the threat of environmental extremism that elevates the planet above people."

Since when do we not LIVE on the planet????
