im not into holy wars here, but if you look at what he said, we all are toast then. whether you like it or not every living thing on this planet contributes to its demise, i dont care how lightly you tread on it and how many precautions you put in place its still going to happen.

anweis, we are the caretakers of the earth, as your Revelation quote suggests.  A verse taken out of context must be read carefully.  "those who destroy the earth" are the evil ones of satan.

If you accept that verse, do you also accept 11:15 - "And the seventh angel sounded and there arose loud voices in heaven, saying "The kingdom of the world has become the kingdom of our Lord, and of His Christ, and he will reign forever and ever"?

No man on his deathbed ever said "I wish I'd made more money".

Revelation 11: 17-19.
 
Those of you who are religious and wait for Jesus to solve your problems or help you escape them: don't you think that this is a bit unfair, to try to escape your own responsibilities? What if Jesus himself does come and judges your for not paying heed to what you did to God's Creation? What if he says "God made polar bears and you caused them to go extinct, and God made 10,000 kinds of birds you destroyed most of them?" 
 
 
 
 
We aren't waiting for Jesus to come back so that He can fix all the problems.  We are waiting for Him to come back because He said He was going to come back!  It just so happens that when He comes back, He is going to fix all the problems!  That's just a bonus.   I don't intend to be "part of the problem".  If you ain't expecting Him, or if you're not anxious to see Him......  well, you'd better make yourself invisible.

But why do you need God and other religions and the fear of eternal damnation and the promisses of eternal happiness and life to be good people?
Can't you just be good for the sake of good?

Why certainly.  But that ain't gonna get you into Heaven.  That's why we believe in the Lord.  I'm not afraid of eternal damnation.  But if you don't know Jesus you surely ought to be afraid.  Eternity is a real long time.

We already have a Heaven, Ed. Right here, on Earth. God made it for us. Now, look what we did to it.
I still don't get the Jesus part. You're telling me to be afraid of him, but he's such a good and loving person.

anweis, as Ed said, it's not about being good; none of us can be good enough.  And if you believe, as you seem to, that God did create this earth, then you've got to be awed by Him.  None of us, however "good" we are, are worthy of His presence.  It took the ultimate sacrifice, Jesus, for that.
Yes, we've made a lot of stupid mistakes in caring for this earth, and yes, we do need to be better caretakers.  But that's not the most important thing.  Revelation talks about a "new heaven and a new earth" where we will have no tears or the cares of this world (and Jesus did say that if you follow Him you will have MORE troubles, so true followers aren't hding behind their "religion").  I'm going to be as ready as I can be for that.
 
That's all I've got to say.  I'm for moving on to something fun, too.

It is the year 2025 Today is the 15 year anniversary of the hanging of the top 500 leaders of the Democratic party for Conspiracy and TREASON for allowing Obama to be allowed to be put on the ballot for President in 2008.
Folks ain't got a sense of humor no more. They don't laugh they just get sore.

Need to follow the rules. Just hard to determine which set of rules to follow
Now the rules have changed again.
