Anti-theocracy

There is a mix of approaches here. From the libertarian influence on Reconstruction, they have no real objections to caring for the environment, but they do not think doing so is the role of government; it should be the responsibility of Christian community leaders and business owners. They posit (rather naively) that both 'Christian ethics or charity and the free market will regulate such things.

On the other end of the spectrum on this issue is the firm belief that mankind cannot change the environment or the climate. This does leave them with the awkward problem of having to account for the obvious changes we see happening. However, they have an explantation: the gays. No, really. Our culture's acceptance of homosexuality (and abortion0 causes God to speak through nature to express his displeasure. Case in point, a woman named Cindy Jacobs attributed a large die-off of black birds in Arkansas a few years ago to the repeal of 'Don't Ask, Don't Tell,' the policy that allowed gays to serve in the military only if they never admitted they were gay. When that was overturned, allowing gays to serve openly, she claimed, the result was this mysterious natural event.

Similar claims have been made about severe hurricanes, floods, and other anomalous weather patterns. They have also attributed large-scale national crises to demonic activity, such as when Peter Wagner, a prominent figure on a group called the New Apostolic Reformation claimed that Jaan's stock market crashed because the Emperor had had sexual relations with a demon. (This is on video, and is another resource I will try to make available.) (There will be more on this (Including the video of Jacob's claim) in the section in Dominionism.)

Finally, there is a thread of rhetoric in the general conservative end of American Christianity that holds 'environmentalism' to be a false or satanic religion. Sometimes referred to as the 'Green Dragon" (I could not possibly make this up), it is something to be feared and shunned, much like yoga, fortune telling, or Dungeons and Dragons.

These groups, incidentally are working hard to bring their brand of Christianity to the world. In particular, they have aggressive presences in South and Central America *where they preach that the Catholic church is evil and their saints are demons or idols), Africa (where they have been associated with a number of anti-homosexuality measures, such as a law enacted in Uganda that criminalized homosexuality), and Eastern Europe....
