I wonder how many of the Progressive parishioners drove their fossil fueled vehicle to the church?
Progressive churches are singing rewritten Christmas carols to fight climate change
Some progressive churches in Australia are teaming up to fight climate change this Christmas season — and are singing rewritten Christmas carols to get the job done.
Check out the Pitt Street Uniting Church Singers croon new versions of “Joy to the World,” “Hark! The Herald Angels Sing,” “Silent Night,” and others..
The rewritten version of “Joy to the World” they sing in the clip goes like so:
Cool down the world / the time has come / for targets tight and fairÂ
Let petrol, oil, and coal / prepare to goÂ
Let’s fund renewablesÂ
Let’s fund renewablesÂ
Let’s fund, let’s fund renewablesThe Pitt Street Uniting Church’s website describes the congregation as a “progressive faith community of justice-seeking friends in the heart of Sydney.”“We still sing traditional carols and celebrate Christmas!” says thevideo description of church singers belting out the new carols. “We also believe that God wants us to care for the earth. 97% of climatologists believe that climate change is real, and that it is in part caused by human activity.”
The Lord also says you should practice what you preach
Another video featured “people of faith” singing the carols in Brisbane “to remind ourselves, the public and elected leaders of our responsibility to look after our common home, planet Earth. The Very Rev. Dr. Peter Catt, Dean of Brisbane’s St. John’s Cathedral said that in this climate emergency we must stand up for urgent action against coal and support renewable energy projects especially in Queensland.”
The Very Rev. should hearken back to 2012 when the party in control rammed through all sorts of ‘climate change’ measures then lost so badly during the Queensland elections that they did not have enough seats to be a formally recognized political party.
