Why are the vast majority of Christians against conservation?

You've read way to much nonsense into what Drich said, you might want to consider that what he said meant we are to be caring custodians of this plant. Besides it's the big, very big corporations and governments that have created this problem, why do you blame Christians for the shape it's in. Where is you proof that Christians are solely responsible for the mess. The way I see it is the uncaring money hungry selfish people that are of the greatest responsibility, note what I just described is not a Christian.

I agree. Who says all atheists and non-christians are wonderful, caring protectors of the earth.

Atheists aren't compelled by dogma to believe that the earth is a special gift from the creator of the universe.

I don't mean to condemn all Christians but I think you've conceded there is far too much of Drich's attitude among Christians. I never said atheists are immune to an unhealthy disregard for the well being of the planet. We're all over the map. But there is nothing about atheism which endorses such an attitude, whereas there are plenty of dipshit fundamentalists who see eye-to-eye with drippy.

[Drich]

We were told to subdue this world, to work the ground and to rule over it and all in it.

So all the other animals and plants were created merely as resources for the one and only creature -us- God is concerned with? So mass extinctions is not a problem. Depletion of resources is not a problem. Sustainability of the interactive webs of life is of no concern because God will provide once we burn through the yolk sack provided by every other form of life? This doesn't make you stupid so much as damnable. It is certainly one of the reasons fundamentalist Christians can't be treated as full adults.

Oh and look how effortlessly I judge you as morally deficient without reference to any objective standard. All of that is obviously bullshit given how little good it has done you.

No, that's a pretty fair assessment. Let's burn it down, and usher in the end times.

That is why I drive a 7.5 liter big block that gets 6 to 8 miles a gallon. I have to off set all these stupid hybrids and try and keep us from another ice age.

Hmmm if I could only fit that on a bumper sticker..
