Bush officials plan to dial back environmental protections
By Renee Schoof | McClatchy Newspapers

WASHINGTON — In the next few weeks, the Bush administration is expected to relax environmental-protection rules on power plants near national parks, uranium mining near the Grand Canyon and more mountaintop-removal coal mining in Appalachia.

Well, George W. Bush says he's a Bible-believing Christian. What does he think about the following?

"…destroy them which destroy the earth." — Revelation 11:18

Comment Rules Update: Effective Thursday, April 2, 2009, 03:21 PM Pacific Time: +/-

Comments are moderated.

Please use your real name (first and last; not a trade name or product name, etc.) and be clearly on topic concerning either the post/page or comment-thread content. One-liners likely will be disapproved especially for first-time commentators. The RLCC wants to avoid having this site turn into a collection place for those building nothing but back-links. We want this site to be used by people who really care about the RLCC and Christian Commons and who seek to help.

Comment Policies (Some Protection against the Frivolous and Litigious):

Each comment must be approved before it appears. Please be patient.
Cite source(s) of copyrighted materials. (When in doubt, cite the source.)
Know your terms (definitions and connotations). Clarify your full context.
Do not incite violence.
Do your best to avoid committing libel. "If the meaning conveyed cannot by its nature be proved false, it cannot support a libel claim." Concerning "public figures," do not publish (post commentary) "with either knowledge of falsity or in reckless disregard for the truth." [Tom Usher of this website, for example, is a public figure.] "Accusing a minister of unethical conduct" is libelous unless true. The burden of proof rests with the person leveling the charge.
If you are libeled on this website, ask for a retraction. Be specific.

The Church is not in a position to fact check all comments. It is not libel for any comments publish by others on this website that (which comments) the Church does not know are libelous.

Religious expression is protected (albeit under indeterminable qualifications) under both freedom of speech and freedom of religious exercise. What constitutes false, damaging, malicious expression is fluid in secular interpretation. Freedom of religious exercise is not absolute under secular law. Branches of government shift the fulcrum for balancing supposed democratically derived rights. What is permissible one day often is retroactively and wrongfully punished the next.

Debate is welcomed on this site. Devolution into fruitless quarrelling is not.

Commentators who show a pattern of ignoring points and direct questions will be cutoff — not approved.

Neither do I tell you by what authority I do these things.

The Church reserves the right to edit comments (spelling, punctuation, removing links, removing profanity, etc.) but is not responsible for statements of commentators.

Commentator's comments are subject to the level of copyright protection set by the Church.

These rules are subject to change at the sole discretion of the RLCC.

Thank you for contributing and for your patients and understanding.

Real first & last name:

Common nicknames, such as "Tom Usher" in lieu of "Thomas Usher," accepted
