Quote by: Chancellor How many other places where people gather socially do likewise?

I know it's an uncomfortable subject to have thrown in your fce, but try to resist the urge to get me to change the subject, OK?

Quote by: Chancellor Do they really consume "vast amounts"? Do they really heat/cool empty buildings? What about all these damned skyscrapers that have the heat/cooling and lights on over the weekend when the buildings are practically empty?

I believe they do consume vast amounst of energy. The bulk of the huge mega-churches in our area are ancient relics of times past, and it's common sense that old buildings are not energy efficient. There are vast numbers of these building spead across the Midwest.


As for the skyscrapers, I'm right there with you. WTF indeed. These are the people putting out the "conserve energy" propoganda while they ship goods to China to be assembled, and shipped back. WTF indeed!

Quote by: Chancellor This shows you really don't know what the hell you're talking about and I am really sick of all these damned threads intended only to express animus toward religion!

Tough cookies, it's a discussion forum, and I have my axes to grind as well. Don't like it, don't look.

Quote by: Chancellor I don't know of any church that runs heating and air conditioning seven days a week if the building is only used part of one day a week.

Like I said, in Northern Ohio you run the heat, or your pipes explode.

Quote by: Chancellor What He would likely want is for people like you to stop creating threads with the intent of showing your animus toward Him and His Church.

Again you get the tough cookies comment. If He doesn't like it, He can Lump it. Omnicient my ass.

Quote by: Chancellor More of a right than you have to lecture Christians about anything when your lectures are based on wrong information.

And you have proven me wrong where exactly?

Quote by: Chancellor Besides, the only "Christians" I know of that might be lecturing you on your use of resources are liberal ones that have essentially abandoned the core doctrines of the Christian faith (and, thus, have ceased to be Christian). If you have a gripe, take it up with the World Council of Churches!

I try to minimize my contact with the clinically insane.

Quote by: Chancellor Why should religion be more eco-friendly and who are you to dictate to religion what it must do?

Do you see me setting dictates, or mandates? No you don't, you see me observing what is, and asking why? Guilty conscience? It certainly seems like you are taking the attack personally, yet, I don't see a single instance where I typed in Chancellor, or made a specific reference to your church.


As I articulated to Helio abve, this was a question of why the churches spend their resources as they do, and what ramifications we can expect from these actions gown the line. ( If you believe in man made global warming, or peak oil. )
