Interview : Mark Musser : Nazi Oaks - The Green Sacrifice of the Judeo-Christian Worldview in the Holocaust,


Mark Musser, who is a good friend of the IFB and from time to time a writing contributor to the IFB had this very insightful interview done at The Mind Renewed website on the topic of  radical environmentalism (past and present). Mark also spoke about radical Nazi environmentalism, America's own radical environmental movement and Israel's past Baal worship and the many similarities. This interview was very insightful and informative and we  wanted to share it with our IFB audience.

From TRM website;

Could it be that "the highway to modern environmentalism passed through Nazi Germany"? We are joined by Pastor Mark Musser, author of the book Nazi Oaks : The Green Sacrifice of the Judeo-Christian Worldview in the Holocaust, who explains how the worldview of the Nazis, which led to the abominations of the Holocaust, was deeply-rooted in the ecological undercurrents of the anti-Semitism, anti-theism, and anti-humanism of the early German green movement. Gathering together the strands of a bewildering number of influences, from Romanticism to existentialism and Social Darwinism, this ecology served to rationalise (in their eyes) and invigorate their racist and eugenicist 'purification' of land and people. But lest we consider all this history, we should note some significant parallels to that ecology within modern-day extreme environmentalism, and remain vigilant.
