I'd like to see some reasonable, well thought out analysis comparing environmentally conscious folks to say, the crusades, where christians murdered millions of "pagans" in the name of religion. Or the strife in N. Ireland where it is christian against christian. Or modern Iraq, etc, etc.<br /><br />The fundamental principles of Earth Day may have changed over the years, but how can you argue against clean air, clean water, and a better, healthier environment for everyone? Unless of course you personally profit by being a polluter, or enjoy seeing your family and friends suffer from illness cause by the effects of increased pollution and exploitation of our resources. But them you always were a pretty narrow-minded and short-term kinda guy ... Have a nice Earth day.swamper88noreply@blogger.com
