That is what The Bible says.
The sniggering of some idiot USA Republican on the announcement that there is being enacted "A Bill of Rights to Life for the Earth" showed his ignorance and defined the reason such a Bill of Rights is neccessary. I'd love to ignore politics, but you insult my intelligence and my morality.
They have no respect for the very thing which sustains all life on this planet, themselves included. Yet they claim to be "Chrisitian". Obviously, they have either never read the Bible, never comprehended it's wisdom, or just plain old don't give a damn. God gave man DOMINION over the Earth, to tend it and keep it, not DOMINATION, or the wanton destruction and abuse of every aspect of it from humans to animals to plant life, to terrain or the things which the Earth contains within itself. How much "blood" can be extracted from anything before something collapses? How much can you suck out from under the crust of the Earth before it collapses, causing tidal waves, earthquakes, disarrayed resultant weather patterns?
If you haven't seen the latest statistics on the Gulf of Mexico oil spill, check out this quarter's "Wildlife" Magazine (Defenders of Wildlife). It gives the stats.
There is also a very easy to understand page about chickens and eggs. I will not purchase any eggs which are not "free range" or "cage free". Beyond the anger at the cruelty, it should by now be well known what happens when geese are kept penned in tight to create liver pate. Chickens are not egg machines. The people who employ the caged (dubbed "conventional") tactics are not farmers, they are manufacturers. I do not know what chemical changes happen in the bodies of chickens whose lives are confined, but I do believe it has much to do with why the eggs may now be harming humans.
My "Oma" raised chickens. Her eggs were sought from kilometers around. They were the tastiest, with the darkest, most nutritious yolks. They won awards and took top price at any time. They had shells which would withstand riding in a basket on a bicycle for at leat 12km. She got up at 5 AM every day, cooked their special mash, and clucked to them to come out of their hutches. They roamed free. I'm from farm country where the roads were not cluttered nonstop with cars and convenyances not required for real organic farming. I tasted the difference in the food from day one in the USA. Everything tasted the same, like cardboard. Is it any wonder then that Americans use too much salt, too much sugar? It's gotta taste like something more than it does. Nothing. Even tomatoes don't taste like tomatoes. Nor does lettuce, nor do strawberries; in fact I don't buy what I should at the grocery store because it costs way too much for something that just causes disappointment. And usually, these items have no shelf life, even refrigerated. They rot before they can be eaten. And that's in winter in New Jersey. How did we keep our potatoes, cabbages, apples, thoughout an entire winter when they don't even last two weeks here? The only answer I have is that ours were fully organically farmed; that's right, they used manure for fertilizer, has special "lockers"(not refrigerators) wherein these things were kept. The buildings weren't made of chalk and paper. We had shutters on the windows, not for decoration, but to close them. They keep out not only bad weather and conserve heat in winter, they also allay intruders. America is bare by comparison. Despite all the landscaping, there still are not in place the most elemental of things of survival: shutters on the windows and construction which is self-insulation. In other words, concrete blocks.
So when are you smirking egotistical capitalists going to get smart? Not in my lifetime it seems. With everyone in the world and especailly the US government calling on everyone to conserve oil, aka gasoline, one of his first official acts as Governor of New Jersey was Christopher Christie cutting subsidies to public transportation. What could be more anti-American? And you idiots think he'd make a good President?
God save America. Because you are too stupid so far to save yourselves and the rest of us are tired of trying to get you to "get it" and copy off our answers. I hope the woes the Bible refers to befalls those to whom it is due. Before it's too late to save the rest of the world. God only promised he would never again destroy the entire world by use of water. That leaves a lot of options. If you don't destroy everything yourselves before he takes you out from among those who are truly his-I don't care if you call yourself Muslim, Jewish, Hebrew, Palestinian, Agnostic, or that Hollywood thing. We all live under the same roof, in the same Universe and on the same planet and the same rules apply when it comes to living things and life. Stop destroying it. Maybe then the rest will find less reason to want to destroy you. God included. There is no excuse for your abuse.
I do my best not to lose patience with you. Psychometric testing WHILE I HAD A MASSIVE HEAD INJURY indicated that even then. when I was feeling "much stupider than usual", placed my intelligence level in the top 20% of the nation. What I blurted at the time was "So I don't just think they're stupid, they really are that stupid?" And he said "That's not even considering the ones who fall below the 50% margin." God help me. You people ate not competent to decide who and what governs me. And certainly not who or what governs the remainder of the world. I give up. Destroy yourselves. But leave me and the other innocents out of your wanton, ignorant destruction. Because I don't know how you managed to graduate from school, much less college, but you've been to dumb to understand what you were taught and I do not have the patience to teach. You are heading for disaster and my only regret is that I'm stuck in it because of your greedy, jealous, egocentric ignorance.
