Can anyone explain this to me?  Found on the wall of an Evangelical church building site, this poster reads "Global Warning: The Son Will Return"

Now, is it merely apocalyptic froth of the regular sort?

Or is it a suggestion that climate change is, in fact, punishment for Man's sinful ways?

Or is it saying that Jesus is coming, so stop with the recycled hemp light-bulbs and get with the prayin', hippies! 

(This particular approach to environmentalism, that we'll be Raptured before it all falls apart and Jay-sus wants you to drive that SUV, is particularly morally repellent)

And is it really suggesting that solar forcing is the primary reason for climate change, or am I reading too much into a crappy pun?

I don't understand evangelists.

I think you're reading way too much into it. Most of the ones I encounter think they're terribly clever to make that sort of side-ways pun. It appears to make them feel both morally and intellectually superior.

I think it's just the basic *he's coming* propaganda.

Dude's been nearly coming for ages now. Who ever knew that JC was an edger?
