Bryan Fischer: "God let us kill the Indians so the US could be a Christian Nation"

Somebody throw a net over this guy!

Fischer: It Is 'Ignorant, Ignorant, Ignorant' To Think Human Behavior Can Impact The Climate

Submitted by Kyle Mantyla on Friday, 9/13/2013 3:38 pm

As he does every day, Bryan Fischer began his radio program with a Bible reading and discussion, in this case, a passage from Psalm 135 which he cited not only as proof that God struck down the Native Americans so that the United States could be established by Christians, but also as proof that there is nothing that human beings can do to influence the climate.

Verse 7 of the Psalm declares that "He makes clouds rise from the ends of the earth; he sends lightning with the rain and brings out the wind from his storehouses." As such, Fischer said, "that's why it is dumb, dumb, dumb; it is stupid, stupid, stupid; it is ignorant, ignorant, ignorant to think that there is anything that man can do to control the climate through human behavior."

"If you want to do something about the climate," Fischer said, "you want to do something about the weather, there is only one thing that we can do to affect climate or affect weather and that is to pray to Yahweh":

He says the Earth is too resilient of our actions to be negatively affected in a lasting way. As far as the comment about the Indians goes, it reminds of RWers I've heard who say that slavery was a gift to the Africans. If they hadn't been enslaved, they never would have been converted to Christianity and all would've gone to hell. They'll say anything to justify their sick point of view. They've built a religion/party around it.
