Pat Robertson: I’m ‘A Convert’ On Global Warming, ‘It Is Getting Hotter’
Yesterday on the 700 Club, evangelical Pat Robertson declared himself “a convert” on global warming. Robertson said that he has “not been one who believed in global warming in the past.” But now, Robertson said, he believes “it is getting hotter and the ice caps are melting and there is a build up of carbon dioxide in the air.” Robertson implored, “we really need to do something on fossil fuels.

I don't know whether to laugh or cry about this one. Pat and I on the same side, what is going on here. There has been a merging of the green and the evangelical movement over climate change the last couple years but I didn't think it included Pat. Its good to see that he is on board, he has the ear of lots of people and using religion to fight global warming is a great strategy. It will really be interesting to see if Tony Perkins and James Dobson jump on board but I don't see that happening, they are too concerned with gays and protecting the sancity of marriage.
