And it’s not that they want climate change for the apocalypse.
It’s that death cults always think the end times are about to happen. And if their God is going to turn earth into hell and save only them in their own lifetimes, it doesn’t matter what shape the planet is in when that happens.
They know fossil fuels are fucking the environment, but Texas Republicans are in office because of money from the fossil fuels industry, and talking about it hurts their donors profits which hurt donations.
They blatantly said that in the article.
Their issue with teaching about climate change is fossil fuels companies in Texas may make less money
A good number of religious organizations and people in the US want that.
Take my father, a non denominational ex preacher. Practically every day he’s planning for the end of the world and claiming it’ll still happen in his lifetime even though he’s in his 70s.
The rot of religion is not confined to one group here
While I’m sure there are some evangelicals who believe climate change is 100% real but they think it’s also good because it’ll mean Jesus returns sooner…by far very few evangelicals actually are of that mindset, lol.
Most just adopt the Republican narrative that climate change is fake and an excuse to regulate the economy more.
It’s about money, not religion, for 99% of deniers.
If you are looking at this from a religion angle they literally want the end of the world to happen. It’s mostly just greed though.
Well, that’s just the Evangelists…

More than the evangelicals want the world to end.
