A review of the book "American Fascists" by Chris Hedges. In it he notes that televangelists like Robertson, Benny Hill & others "rule their fiefdoms as despotic potentates" which some adherents might think isn't God's way of doing things.

.. it seems to me that those who resist creation care sometimes are motivated by a misreading of scripture. He goes on to name three other factors that have led to this conservative opposition to protecting our earth: a "profound mishandling of science," an "inordinate loyalty to laissez-faire capitalism," and an "inordinat
