| 520 | |a Many Judeo-Christians have seen environmental concerns as a way of renewing the contemporary relevance of the doctrine of Creation. This article argues that, set against the decline of Christianity in the Western world, modern environmentalism is a rival, not an ally, to Judeo-Christianity.

The article concludes with a brief analysis of the deficiencies of environmentalism as a religion. | ||
