Climate Religion Released on Mount Sinai

 This recent news almost has to come from the "Can't Make it Up!" archives. A whole bunch of religious leaders and climate activists decided to go to Mt Sinai in Egypt and fire up some new commandments for man to follow in order to save the planet.  Remember that Mt Sinai is where Moses got the original 10 Commandments.

Here are the folks who were scheduled to talk;

Speakers were His Excellency Metropolitan Serafim Kykotis, vice president of the Pan Africa Council of Churches;  Bishop Andreas Holmberg of the Stockholm Diocese of the Church of Sweden; James Sternlicht, founder and CEO of Peace Department; Rev. Susan Hendershot, president of Interfaith Power and Light; Rabbi Yonatan Neril, founding director of the Interfaith Center for Sustainable Development; Fr. Eduardo Agosto of the Laudato Si’ Movement; Nigel Savage, founder and global ambassador of Hazon; ; Dr. Fachruddin Majeri Mangunjaya, Chairman, Centre for Islamic Studies, Universitas Nasional, Jakarta; Imam Saffet Catovic of Islamic society of North America; Matthias Boehning of the World Evangelical Alliance; Sr. Maureen Goodman and Valeriane Bernard of Brahma Kumaris; climate scientist Paul Beckwith; and Regina Valdez of the Center for Sustainable Development at Columbia University. David Miron Wapner, chair of the Interfaith Center for Sustainable Development, moderated the sessions.

Oh goody!!  We have all sorts of faiths represented because in the woke world of today, all faiths (or no faiths) are all equal!  To the uninformed, the Muslim praying to Allah is the same as the Hindu praying to Krishna is the same as the Catholic praying to Mary is the same as a follower of Christ praying to Jesus.

Let's continue.

Following the Sinai event, we intend to launch a series of educational initiatives that will flow from it. The materials produced by religious leaders participating in the event will be converted into study materials, that will serve the religious communities and the community of climate activists, in special seminars and ongoing teaching situations. 

We are now engaged in planning for a robust faith presence at COP 28 in Dubai, United Arab Emirates.

Founding Partners: The event will be coordinated by a coalition of organizations:

The Elijah Interfaith Institute and its Board of World Religious Leaders brings together some of the world’s most prominent religious figures from Judaism, Islam, Christianity, Buddhism and the Religions of India. The London climate repentance ceremony involved world religious leaders, primarily from the Elijah Board of World Religious Leaders. 

The Interfaith Center for Sustainable Development reveals the connection between religion and ecology and mobilizes people to act.

The Peace Department is a US non-profit designed to solve global coordination failures by making philanthropy and impact investing effective and scalable.

Climate activist Yosef Abramowitz serves as special advisor to the initiative. 

Other Partners: The UN Environment Program’s Faith for Earth Initiative works to strategically engage with faith-based organizations and partner with them to collectively achieve the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) and fulfill the objectives of the 2030 Agenda.

And now we can shift to what a Prophecy Watchers author reports on this;

Dawn broke crisp and clear over Mount Sinai on Sunday morning, as half a dozen climate activists gathered to adorn their cause with religious overtones. They chose the site based on its proximity to COP27, a global climate summit now underway at Sinai coastal resort Sharm El-Sheikh, but once chosen they couldn't resist conscious parallels to Moses receiving the Old Covenant. 

Organizer Yosef Abramowitz, a solar energy CEO who stands to profit from a global commitment to green energy, was convinced he had received a heavenly sign to "proceed with the climate covenant, the 10 climate commandments." Participants took turns reading out the "commandments" -- or rather, "principles," more like guidelines than actual rules -- before Abramowitz smashed two stone tablets on the ground, in clear imitation of the prophet Moses.

Yet the imitation lacked the weightiness of the original. In this ceremony was no "blazing fire and darkness and gloom and a tempest and the sound of a trumpet and a voice whose words made the hearers beg that no further messages be spoken to them" (Hebrews 12:18-19). Once so holy that Moses must walk unshod (Exodus 3:5), the mountain is ordinary, if ruggedly beautiful without the manifest presence of God; these activists needed not, and did not, bother to remove their shoes.
