Rockers Sing "Love Song to the Earth"

Paul McCartney recently led a group of rockers in singing “Love Song to the Earth” in support of the United Nations Climate Change Conference that is scheduled for this December. Joining McCartney were Jon Bon Jovi, Sheryl Crow, and others. The proceeds to the song go to “the work of the U.N. Foundation to inspire international action on climate change” (“Artists Release ‘Love Song to the Earth,” Breitbart, Sep. 9, 2015). The United Nations cares nothing about climate change. It is a hypocritical and greedy institution that cares preeminently about power and money, and that is what the climate change movement is all about at the higher echelons. It is hypocritically driven by evolutionists who supposedly care about saving the earth while believing that everything is the product of blind chance, that there is no ultimate meaning to life, and that the universe is destined to die as the effect of the second law of thermodynamics works out to its ultimate conclusion. How can such people with any reasonable conviction care about saving the earth? According to their own humanistic philosophy, Paul McCartney, Jon Bob Jovi, Sheryl Crow, the leaders of the U.N. Foundation, et al, are meaningless products of blind chance. They will soon die, and when they are dead they are dead. They came from nothing; there is no ultimate meaning to their lives; and they return to nothing. This isn’t a philosophy or a cause to get excited about. I thank the Lord for that wonderful day 42 years ago when the Lord shined light into my hippie-ized, Beatles-loving, spiritually-darkened heart and my blinded eyes were opened to the truth of the gospel of Jesus Christ. This lovely gospel teaches that life was made by an almighty, compassionate and holy Father God who loves man even in his rebellion and has provided salvation for His creatures through the sacrifice of His own Son on Calvary. I’m not talking about Christianity or religious tradition; I’m talking about the truth of an infallible Bible and new life in the resurrected Jesus Christ. This gospel is rejected and mocked by the rocker-U.N. crowd, but it is as vastly superior to their philosophy as light is to darkness and as life is to death, and I will not be intimidated by them.
