Brian McLaren - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia: "In one interview, he explains, 'We were taught to expect the return of Christ very soon, which entailed the destruction of the earth as we know it, with some new beginning on the other side, a new beginning characterized by radical discontinuity with this history. To care about earth's long-range future, then, became an act of unfaithfulness to God and the Bible. To invest in the earth's long-term survival seemed like a "humanist" thing to do. Thankfully, some Christians found ways to counteract this attitude of abandonment toward the earth and its history even within the 'left behind' interpretive framework, but others of us still weren't satisfied."
I am way intrigued by this guy's ideas.
