You Misunderstood

Poor Nance. She’s getting taken to task over her Earth Day biblical quotation.

The Bible tells us in the Old Testament, “To minister to the needs of God’s creation is an act of worship. To ignore those needs is to dishonor the God who made us.” On this Earth Day, and every day, let us honor the earth and our future generations with a commitment to fight climate change.

The problem, of course, is that those who are searching for the quote are looking in the Christian Bible. The actual source is Goracle Bibliotecha.

Claptrap 3:4 “To minister to the needs of God’s creation is an act of worship. To ignore those needs is to dishonor the God who made us.”

But don’t ignore the context.

Claptrap 3:5, 6 So smite the denier and shun the unbeliever. Ignore the ignorant opposition and worship the Goracle from whom all wisdom flows.

See. It was just a misunderstanding.
