\I like the earth, I want to take care of it. Today my mother screamed (literally) at me for caring about the environment. She claimed that it is a useless care to have. I told her about those chapters in Job where God talks about how much he loves all the animals and the earth. I told her that makes me love it as well. She continued thinking I was a foolish teenager with thoughts that don't exceed that of what clothes I wear. She also told me that I need to form my own opinions rather than take everything that everyone else says as truth...but I think she really meant that I need to conform to her opinions. (but, i am just a teenager...so I will probably spontaneously combust if I think that much)
I have very little knowledge, but I don't think it is good to see everything in the earth as a resource that benefits ourselves, and then proceed to use all of that "resource" for our own needs...without thinking about future generations, or animals that use that resource.
