But who believes him?

Here we have “empowerment of women”, “global industry”, “damage being done to our environment” and “running out of a world to live in”, all of which were secular obsessions long before the church even noticed them. The Anglican Church has taken its cue from secularism ever since it abandoned proclaiming Jesus’ uniqueness in being the only way to the Father in favour of the foggy ambiguity of the fatuous “Five Marks of Mission”.

The Chair of the forum, Archbishop Rowan Williams, agreed saying that environmental issues were bound with issues of moral courage such as land ownership, empowerment of women and global industry.

He said that, considering the damage being done to our environment, “running out of a world to live in is a mark of our unfaithfulness,” adding that Christians should not consider environmental issues “a secular fuss imported into the church”. Followers of Christ should not “shrug our shoulders when we are asked why there is not sufficient food or safe, clean water…That is not what Christians should be. That is why this is a matter of faithfulness to our creator and redeemer.”
