And another thing...

Check out this op-ed piece in last Saturday's Atlanta Journal-Constitution, wherein the spokesman for the Southern Baptist Environment and Climate Initiative notes that some younger evangelicals are actually turning away from the Republican Party (horrors!) and are voting Democratic (anathema!). While he does make a few good points and he is helping bring the Baptists around to the issue of environmental stewardship, Mr. Merritt's arguments still ring a bit flat to my ear. 

Stay tuned for my brief response, which hopefully will be published in said newspaper soon - once that happens, I'll opine more long-windedly here.
