People don’t say the world is ending all the time. Religious conservatives do. That’s what they don’t see. I grew up in a religious conservatives community and pretty much every Democratic president was labeled the anti Christ, heralding the end of days. Saddam was also the devil who was gonna end the world, and Arafat, and Osama, and Benihana, etc
My pastor growing up said we don’t need to worry about pollution and climate change, because Jesus is going to return any day and after he wins, god is going to renew the earth. Magically I guess.
It’s an excuse I always heard for not doing anything about it
