re: #136 Fat Bastard Vegetarian

Gosh. Pretty harsh.

A group of kids from my church are now in the Appalachian mountains… ready to unleash the all-encompassing destructive power of Christianity… fixing houses of elderly poor folks.

This is admirable and I applaud their efforts. They do not, however, negate the entitled mindset that is a basic premise of Christianity that humans have the right to be lords of the planet and do whatever their desires of the moment dictate. I know, I know, stewards and all. How well has that been working?

I will compare this mindset to the Native American belief systems that teach that humans are a part of the environment and must live in harmony with it and the other creatures we share it with. To foul and poison our home is unthinkable. God won’t fix it.
