What Happens When "Earth Day" Falls On Good Friday?

ADDENDUM:
To be clear, not all stories in the Leftywhore media are decidedly anti-Christian. This one in today's USA Today is a postitve one about a now unique form of worship in the United States.

Well, it is another attempt by the Obamawhore-Leftywhore media to mock Good Friday and Easter, of course!
As Ed Morrisey notes over at Hot Air, the Leftywhore media is fawning over Earth Day, the dirt-worshiper's Christmas and Easter all rolled in one.
In the article that Ed linked from the Media Research Center, Erin Brown takes Holy Week 2010 to make the seemingly obvious point. That the media will use the most important celebrations in Christendom to bash the faith. Whether it is Roman Catholic bashing, favorite sport of the Leftywhore media, or ignoring the religious aspect of Easter, leave it to these people to be on that side. The side of the heathens.
Now, let me ask you what will be covered intensly tomorrow in the Obamawhore-Leftywhore media. And what of the two events will be brought to a postitive light?
I do not have anything against celebrating nature. And yes, we are obligated to be good stewards of what, I believe, God has given us. But let me be clear. "Earth Day" is a day that does not celebrate nature as much as it is propaganda to promote meaningless environmental extremism. Here is from the Hot Air link:


“And on this Earth Day we told you about the plastic lying around the earth,” Sawyer said on “World News.” “Well what if you could take it and turn it into an answered prayer for some children? One woman did just that. It’s the American heart.” …

“As we said earlier, this is Earth Day, the 40th anniversary, in fact, of what’s considered the birth of the modern environmental movement,” anchor Brian Williams said on “Nightly News.” “On this Earth Day there was this item in the news today, a way to remind us all to take a fresh look at something we look down and see just about every day: cigarette butts. Not only are they the most common form of litter, they are filled with toxins, every one of them that can leach out into the environment and make their way into drinking water supplies and pets, among other things.”


BLEECH!
Yes, I know, and I think that most people know that litter is a bad thing. However, may I give an example of how it is dealt with here in Pasadena every New Years?
The Rose Parade is held every New Years Day* and people camp out on New Year's Eve. They are "allowed" from 12noon on New Year's Eve on. Many start early that morning.
Well, imagine the fact that there is tons of trash left behind. Colorado Blvd is one five-mile long parking lot. By New Year's evening, thanks to our rubbish removal, one would not know that there was a parade and big camp out the evening before.
The point is that there is good and common-sense ways to be environmentally consious and aware. I never, ever have seen a story about that in the Leftywhore media. And it is an amazing act to clean up essentially a whole mini-city in mere hours.
I believe that would be a great story sometime.
Good Friday is the most solemn day on the Christian calendar. It deserves coverage that is at the very least non-confrontational. Same with Easter being the most joyous day on the Christian calendar.
Yet it seems to be an occasion to bash the Roman Church, and mock Christians in general in the Leftywhore media. And now, it will be used to elevate a faux holiday, Earth Day.
