How do they square this with the Christian concept of Stewardship! I think that every time Americans are faced with a challenge, rather than face it and buckle down and WORK to achieve an established result, we would rather go to a meeting (church?) and be told that there isn't much we can do so it must be the will of GOD. Always very convenient! The rest of the world however, would rather we get off of our dead asses and do something to reduce our over polluting footprint. I also think that the totally worthless Congress is probably a true reflection of the electorate, a collection of totally confused knuckle draggers in search of GOLD!
