At least some in the evangelical movement, which I left behind years ago in part due to its knee-jerk conservatism, seem to get it when it comes to respecting the Creation. I met Richard Cizik, who's mentioned in the article, many years ago, and was deeply impressed by both his sincerity and intelligence. He didn't hold against me* the fact that our political orientations were different, because we agreed on matters of faith. If anyone in the evangelical community can make inroads in political progress on environmental issues, it's him. Let's hope--and pray--for the best over the next two years.
*Edited August 31, 2011 to add "against me."
