Just my personal assessment, but I think the "save the earth" heavy environmentalism mantra is basically a religion, as is "evolution". These are alternate gods to worship: "anything but the LORD, the CREATOR of the earth!! It is part of the New Age movement (New Spirituality/religion of Oprah) where all is one, the earth is a spiritual entity (Gaia) and you are part of the cosmos spiritually, etc. It is simply, IDOLATRY, the breaking of the first and second commandments, and fulfilling Romans 1.
It is also my understanding that the original meaning of the symbol of the "peace sign" is/was actually an occultic symbol of the broken, upside down cross of Christ, representing the defeat (they wish) of Jesus Christ.
But He will defeat all who hate him and His sheep! (us).
Praise Jesus, the creator of the earth, the creator of all things, our salvation!
Thank you Lord, for the cross. Praise Jesus!!

You asked- is there a driving force behind this--- yeah, satan, the god of this world.

Your personal assessment is wrong, and you're a retard, as is everyone else who thinks that environmentalism is some sort of dirty word. I am sick to fucking death of you idiots using the Rapture as an excuse to trash this planet, which IS the only home we'll ever have unless we colonize another planet. You are a fool and you are damaging my environment (and perhaps contributing to my crippling asthma) and ruining the place for your children and their children and their children.
AND WOULD YOU QUIT WITH THE FUCKING PEACE SIGN BULLSHIT, I'VE BEEN A PAGAN FOR 24 FUCKING YEARS AND YOU. ARE. WRONG. SHUT UP!
"Just my personal assessment"
Given that you are an admitted member of a whacked-out death cult, no one cares about your personal assessment of ANYTHING, from other peoples' sex lives, to the inner workings of the hadron collider.
"It is simply, IDOLATRY"
You are simply, a liar or a fool, or much more likely both.
"It is also my understanding"
Shut up. No one cares about your personal delusions. If you refuse the mental health care that is available, just go and be sick if you must, but don't bother the rest of us.
"But He will defeat all who hate him and His sheep!"
The delusion of thinking that your hateful, selfish cult is the 'one true religion'!
"Thank you Lord, for the cross"
The cross the rest of us have to bear, living on the same planet as you assholes?
"Just my personal assessment..."
This from a typical Christian bigot who then parrots the prejudices of its handlers. You need read no further.
seeHimsoon: Holdyourbreath!
Just because YOU can't imagine a life without religion doesn't mean that everything important to non-Christians is a religion. And, not every non-Christian symbol is anti-Christian.
Of course, I find it amusing that your religous symbol is an instrument of torture and death. Lenny Bruce pointed out that if Jesus had been killed in the 1950s, Catholic children would be wearing electric chairs around their necks.
"I think the "save the earth" heavy environmentalism mantra is basically a religion"
I do not wish to wallow in, or breathe nothing but, unadulterated crap.
Why do you think I chucked in religion?
Or maybe we just think we should take care of the earth (it's the only one we have, after all; and you can't tell me there aren't any problems with the environment -- like massive amounts of human caused extinctions), much like your Bible says to?
Or maybe it's a stupid person's interpretation of a symbol advocating for nuclear disarmament and its original purpose reworked to a more general meaning of peace?
You might as well give up, you're not convincing anybody except people like you.
"It is also my understanding that the original meaning of the symbol of the "peace sign" is/was actually "
Your understanding is so inadequate that you think the environmental movement is a religion, so what you "understand" is meaningless.
But....I thought that Satan hated the earth and wanted to destroy it! How does he also possess environmentalists, too?
...well, it explains the crazy brand of environmentalists who firebomb labs that test on animals and throw bricks at people's cars because they work at those labs, but still!
There's a logical disconnect there, with Satan wanting to destroy the earth because people live there and then wanting to save it...Do they not see it?
GAAAAAAH!
*my head asplode*
Oprahism won't be a religion for another several hundred years! How did you get to this century?
Oh, wait, you're not a Futurama character, you're just making stuff up. Never mind.
Who's afraid of de big bad WOOF,
de big bad WOOF,
de big bad WOOF....
To put it in perspective, the biosphere is to the planet as the film of a soap bubble is to its contained volume.
Why didn't seeHimsoon choose a mainstream religion, like voodoo or oprahism?
Also, what's with the sudden volume of "true meaning" of the peace sign quotes recently? Did the fundies just spin the wheel of misinformation and must include whatever it lands on in their posts somehow?
So, any set of ideas that isn't Christianity is a religion, and, because that religion isn't Christianity, automatically bad ? Man, you guys are good at using your presuppositions to make anything and everything that isn't shoved neatly within preconceived meme-packages sound like horrible wrongs. I mean, you even tie in the idea that any "religion" that isn't yours is a religion set up to a fictional entity within your own belief set.
The fact is that environmentalism stems from a very basic idea: we live on the planet, so if we fuck it up, we're fucked. No earth worship involved (they can dip into paganism if they want that). And the peace sign is based on symbols for nuclear disarmament, not your glorified "t".
Just my personal assessment
Followed by a bunch of words that you obviously don't know the definitions for.
It is also my understanding
Followed by something you clearly don't understand.
"Why grandma, what massive fail you have..."
Or you're just an idiot who's forgotten that your bible clearly states "In the beginning God created...the earth...and it was very good."
Or as I would put it, "In the beginning, the gods created the earth, and it was great until those morons with their factories started fucking everything up."
Funny how Pagan religions were around way before Christianity, Hinduism is the oldest practiced major religion, Siddhartha has records of his existence 500 years before Jesus every appeared.
But of course arrogance takes over and "MY RELIGION IS CORRECT!, ALL OTHERS ARE FALSE"
For people who claim to understand the Bible and Christianity you all have no exhibit a total misunderstanding of what a God, Worship, Spiritually or Religion is.
Concern for our planets well being is like upkeep on your house. Stop trying to equate your obsession with a fantasy with scientific consensus
