Easier to say it's our place to rule the earth as we see fit and keep driving our Hummers.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4595253270791554701.post-46417916096136986352008-12-03T14:39:00.000-06:002008-12-03T14:39:00.000-06:00Hi lovely brother!

Of course, it all lies in the interpretation of Biblical passages. If "stewardship" translates to "mastery," then what's the big deal? Mastery over the over the beasts and forests seems to imply that we have complete control over them, and can do what we please. Then, too, is the oh-so-obvious fact that mankind was created in God's image. As such, he is the indeed the master--the most godlike form on Earth. After all, God in his infinite benevolence supplied a stocked pantry just for the needs and wants of man. Why <I>shouldn't</I> he partake? And since God is not only benevolent but also all-powerful, if mankind inadvertently screws up the environment (as if that's even possible, since it was all created in perfection for his use!), well, God will take care of it. <BR/><BR/>Is that the logic?Mozarthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06098420179804637111noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4595253270791554701.post-85058879285488159652008-12-02T18:48:00.000-06:002008-12-02T18:48:00.000-06:00Nice new site, Mark!
