I don't want to over react. People can write whatever the hell they want, but I was annoyed to read Bill Moyers' most recent article (registration required), who writes in the Star Tribune:

Go to Grist to read a remarkable work of reporting by the journalist Glenn Scherer -- "The Road to Environmental Apocalypse." Read it and you will see how millions of Christian fundamentalists may believe that environmental destruction is not only to be disregarded but actually welcomed -- even hastened -- as a sign of the coming apocalypse. [Emph. added]

Do people really think that the political religious right wants to ruin the environment to bring the second coming? What worries me is that people might believe this kind of stuff, especially since this article is written in a fairly mainstream publication AND it was linked in Planetizen, an urban planning website that highlights important planning articles. Bleh. I'm over it.
