Check out the story about Ira Einhorn, co-founder of Earth Day, in the Philadelphia Bulletin. Thanks to Rush for pointing this out.

It's a religious festival meant to glorify the creation rather than the Creator.

"For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who suppress the truth in unrighteousness, because what may be known of God is manifest in them, for God has shown it to them. For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead, so that they are without excuse, because, although they knew God, they did not glorify Him as God, nor were thankful, but became futile in their thoughts, and their foolish hearts were darkened. Professing to be wise, they became fools, and changed the glory of the incorruptible God into an image made like corruptible man and birds and four-footed animals and creeping things.

Therefore God also gave them up to uncleanness, in the lusts of their hearts, to dishonor their bodies among themselves, who exchanged the truth of God for the lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen." - Rom. 1:18-25

A day for rednecks to come together and burn all their old pick-up truck tires.

Earth Day, Green Week, Global Warming, Cap and Trade, Radical Environmentalism, Gaiaism.  These and similar beliefs are rapidly becoming a state sponsored religion.  This is a worldwide religion, not just an American movement.  The end goal of this religion is to halt the industrial and economic advance of man, and to make man subserviant to Gaia, the earth as a living super-organism:  Earth as God.

Obama is making his move on Cap and Trade.  There is no scientific proof regarding CO2 and global climate change, yet based on this religion, the government seeks to tax the very air we breathe.  This will be a hidden tax.  A regressive tax that will be passed along to consumers in the form of higher prices for everything they use.  The type of tax that Democrats are famous for.

Let's throw another virgin in the volcano.

since Earth Day was just a day.

FACT: The First Earth Day; April 22, 1970 was the 100th Anniversary of the Communist Mass Murderer Vladimir Lenin's Birthday (April 22, 1870)

Earth Day - Earth Day Going from Red to Green (FrontPage Magazine)

"Might it be mere coincidence that Earth Day [April 22] falls on Lenin’s Birthday? No, this link was apparently intended from the beginning. Sincere environmentalists who objected that Lenin’s Soviet Union was a despoiler of the natural ecology of Russia, a dammer of rivers and polluter of ecosystems, have been ignored or silenced."

Obama: "Cap & Trade Will Cause Electricity Rates To Skyrocket"

Sounds great...though I think I could commune with nature a little better with a nice prime rib ;>)

. . .indoctrinate the children and young people with eco-fascist ideas.

And to bloviate, as Barack Obama did today in Iowa.

Wonder how much his carbon burden was to use that jumbo jet to fly to and from Iowa from D.C.?

Doesn't matter, because he invented carbon and his CO2-equivalent burden doesn't figure into the global greenhouse-gases burden, does it?

Just like Algore's and his jet-setting tribe's also don't, right?

Hypocritical twits all.

Nuff said.

...have replaced yesterday's environmental idiots.

In 1968, professor Paul Ehrlich, former Vice President Al Gore's hero
and mentor, predicted that there would be a major food shortage in the
U.S. and "in the 1970s . . . hundreds of millions of people are going
to starve to death."

I think we should celebrate Human Day. It will be our victory over nature party. Nature is brutal and unforgiving. Got a limp? Food for the carnivores. Not enough foliage or prey? Sorry for the mass starvation. The bigger animal ran you out of the area? Hope you don’t freeze. Nature says, sorry, too bad, no help for you.

When we go ‘camping’ or to the ‘national park’ we don’t strip naked, forage for berries, and dig holes to sleep in under some twigs and leaves. We bring warmer clothes we made with huge machinery. We have canned food so it won’t spoil. We have guns because chasing down a deer or even a rabbit and choking it to death is really hard! Foraging? Waste of time. We plant, cultivate, and harvest. Much more efficient than nature.

So when we ‘enjoy’ nature, we are celebrating out mastery over it. Yes, we need nature. But we need fire, too. We don’t need it out of control, though.

So on Human Day, strike a match. Admire a piece of stainless steel. Compare your shorts and t-shirt to your thermal coat and pants and say, ‘hey, I’m human and can live anywhere! Nature will not dictate my existence anymore!’

Or, if you love Earth Day so much, rid yourself of your man-made possessions and live in the woods. Good thing it’s Spring. Good luck this Winter.
