To defend the radical practice of mountaintop removal coal mining, the Kentucky Coal Association has placed the following Bible verse on its web site http://www.kentuckycoal.org/Mountaintop%20Mining/Issues%20-%20Responses.htm: Every valley shall be filled in, every mountain and hill shall be made low; The rugged land shall be made a plain, the rough country, a broad valley. Then the glory of the Lord shall be revealed, and all mankind shall see it together; for the mouth of the Lord has spoken.
