Kirchenführer kritisieren den christlichen Eigentümer von GB News wegen der Klimaangriffe des Senders

You know I’m starting to suspect these millionaire chaps may not have our best interests at heart.

The church leaders’ narrative (net zero as a great economic opportunity with the UK in the vanguard of enlightened countries that are all part of a shared movement taking action against climate change) still resonates with a fairly large part of society, but it just sounds increasingly naive to me. I’m in favour of renewables where they have a role to play, but they’re only part of the solution to sustainability and security in a world that will remain drenched in fossil fuels for decades to come (naphtha, fertiliser, dispatchable energy, etc). The “net zero utopia” view just doesn’t hold up when most other countries are doing very little and our energy prices are so high that they’re starting to destroy our industrial base. It will be interesting to see if there’s a split in the electorate on this when prices remain high in spite of government action.

As a Christian, I am often reminded of the fact that the Bible has pretty unambiguous instruction to be stewards of the planet. Jesus also had plenty to stay about attitudes towards money and helping the poor, so it really is quite tonedeaf of a multimillionaire investor (someone who makes money out of other people’s ideas and hard work rather than having any of their own) and Christian to say that it’s net zero policies that are impoverishing the elderly and poor.

Why is this channel still allowed to be on the air again?

As always for these people, “Christian” needs to be in quotes

This channel is losing money. It is being pumped by foreign entities which should send alarm bells ringing
