Why USA a predominantly christian population is the biggest polluter in the world? Why does it's foreign policy stink? It is afterall a democracy and these majority christians vote these governments in who screw the rest of the world for the USA's material gains! They literally rape the world of it's resources with their greed (An american uses 4 times as much energy as anyone else on the planet) and then give bits and pieces to poor people in the name of christian missions to create more misguided people who think they are very charitable!
Is your christian guilt on vacation when you vote the US govt. in with full information of their portfolios?

Melanie girl i don't have to live in the US to know their energy consumption, their greed and their vote for the warmongers on the rest of the world! These figures are known to everyone. Its time you opened your eyes and stopped assuming everyone who's not american or christian is basically stupid!

Why does your christian conscience change when you go for the vote?

Mr Slave to JC if you did take math at school you can work out per capita pollution. In your top twenty per capita list china and India don't even figure. That itself proves the greed per capita of western world including US of A. Overall with population 5-6 times US of A china and India are still at the back of the list. So by your own admission how greedy is each american compared to the rest of the world, you work it out! I'll wait i know americans aren't very good at math and accountability in particular!

If you don't know how multiply per capita with the total polulation. These are just averages. I'd appreciate if you had overall figures for a country!

Why is a predominantly christian population the biggest polluter in the world? Because they think God will save them. They abandon all responsibility and live how they please - safe in the knowledge everything's gonna be made all OK for them

I believe that just because someone says' "I'm a Christian", doesn't mean they really are a Christian! Also, keep in mind that our gov't is not totally run by Christians, there are lots of other powerful religious groups who have control over issues, ( not to mention them by name, so as not to offend!)
The Constitution of the US was written so as to be able to have religious freedom, among other things. At that time, God blessed the US, ( great weather, religious freedoms, good land, etc) and the blessings were for the US gov't and people to be obedient and to be righteous.Well...anyone can see how corrupted and too powerful our gov't has become, much to our downfall, as God has stopped blessing the US as a nation. There is dishonesty, power out of control, fraudulence everywhere, from the top of the gov't down...to individuals.
There is no solution to this, but it's not only the Christians. There are powerful representatives in Washington, from all major religions. Corruptness is not exclusive to just, so called Christians. Take a look at who runs the media, and how they control what we see on the news! Get real! Actually a REAL CHRISTIAN wouldn't even be involved in politics. It's too dishonest for a true Chrisitian, and God tells us to seperate ourselves from it.
BTW.. I don't vote and put any of those idiots in! It would be like choosing which crook I want in; what a decision.!

The US does not rape the world of its resources without the consent of the businessmen and leaders in every country including yours. And China and India are rapidly gaining as polluters of world class proportion so get off your anti USA rant and look at what is going on in your own back yard.

I'll tell you why christians do like they do. They can not ever pass up their leader[pastor]. These preachers don't preach the gospel which is the cross of Christ, neither do they preach on the Holy Ghost. Nothing will be right until this is done. We can never change without the Holy Ghost changing us, But it was paid for at the cross. Faith comes by hearing the Word so the people are not hearing the word.

Because, when self interest comes along....sincerety to do what God wants, leaves the scene.
