LITERALLY?

The Arizona Replublic published an article on 12/28/2008 about the new Green Bible that's meant to encourage Christians to take better care of the environment. Of course, the Fundies don't care for it:

But others fear the new Bible, which has been endorsed by secular groups such as the Sierra Club and the Humane Society, will mislead Christians.

"I am concerned that many who call themselves Christians, or intend to speak for Christianity, don't interpret the Bible literally," said James Taylor, a founding elder and Sunday-school teacher at Living Water Christian Fellowship in Palmetto, Fla. "These groups don't have a religious focus; they have a desire to spread their environmental message."

Taylor, who is also a senior fellow of environmental policy at the Heartland Institute, a conservative Chicago-based think tank, said there is a healthy amount of "skepticism" among mainstream evangelicals toward the new Bible.

If Taylor is so big on literalness, I wonder if he called for Sen. Ensign to be put to death? If you are really curious, send him e-mail: jtaylor@heartland.org
