In other articles (abortion) on this website Richard Land seems to put priorities on children that we can’t directly help over those who need our help now (those in poverty).  It is a shame for this site to exploit the “needs” of the poor by trying to vote down a seemingly increasing threat to our earth.  Why can’t you be consistent?

A shame.

At some point we need to just leave it up the God, and use some common sense.  All this legislation is like trying to lasso a tornado!
