We were told to subdue or to conquor this world. Meaning we have been commanded to tame the wild things, to destroy our predators to harness the forces He put into place in this world and have them work for us.
For God and his people all these things are a good things.
For hippies and people who hate God they have no eternity to look forward to, no 'New Heaven/New Earth to live in. This is all they have. So, as other poorer nations enter into the industrial age, resources become spread too thin. So inorder to perserve their hippy way of life, a segement of the self righteous calls the rest of the population to set a better example so that these population rich resource poor nations do not consume everything in sight as 'we' did through our industrial age. If they did their would not be enough resources to go around.
Which again is a problem if this world in your only home.
Dirch look at it this way imagine your building something and its a great wonder and you want people to like it and take care of it. you come back its trashy its ruined no one is really taking care of it and those who are doing a okay job at it. trashing the earth and leaving it trashed is a bad thing because if god did exist he would be angry that so much is going on and that humanity just really dominated the earth pretty much pushing nature back and deforesting doesn't help we need trees and plants to live oxygen doesn't make itself. I care about the environment but who knows when i'm gone i wan't some to enjoy living and breathing clean air.
Seriously?
Read what you responded to again!
My point was to say one man's Trashing up the World, Is another man's treasure!
Do you understand? Just because you can see trash, does not mean God see trash.
