Dameon,
Thank you for this post. Story of B explores the threat of the Christian divine mandate to dominate the earth. However, not all Christians fully agree that the environment is at their disposal. On a more hopeful note:
"The Fund for Christian Ecology, Inc. is an Idaho Non-Profit Corporation established in 1998 to facilitate a discussion of all historic and emerging strands of thought within Christianity related to God's creation, humanity's role within it, and the Earth's current environmental crisis. The submission of original papers related to these themes are solicited for possible posting to this site and for possible publication in the Fund's Journal of Christian Ecology, a pending project of the Fund."
This site has links to essays by influential Christian theologians who advocate environmental responsibility.
Regards,
Jerry B.

I stumbled across the article of a woman that has in recent months become my arch nemesis: Ann Coulter. The following quote exemplifies why I loathe her so:"The ethic of conservation is the explicit abnegation of man's dominion over the Earth. The lower species are here for our use. God said so: Go forth, be fruitful, multiply, and rape the planet -- it's yours. That's our job: drilling, mining and stripping. Sweaters are the anti-Biblical view. Big gas-guzzling cars with phones and CD players and wet bars -- that's the Biblical view." - from her column "Oil Good; Democrats bad" (http://www.jewishworldreview.com/cols/coulter101300.asp) October 12, 2000D
