In general, I am not a big believer in God.
.
Definitely not "God" as presented by Jihadi terrorists, raping Priests or the Governors of North Carolina and Mississippi.
.
But stop for a minute and look at this planet - the world - this amazing rock we live on hurdling through space. Well, looking at this beauty in the mist of, truly - the vacuum of space, it is objectively hard not to believe in God, at least a little.
.
AND, the ability of that planet to recover from humans actions - to date - makes the world even more of a gift.
.
I say this because I recently read an argument that man made climate change is not a problem because God gave man dominion over the Earth. Okay, let's say that is true. That doesn't mean you have to screw it up. If I bought a car and then drove it at 80 miles an hour at a cliffside - I have "dominion to do that", but it doesn't make it a very smart thing to do.
.
This world is, at least, amazing and fragile. At most, a true gift from God. Let's not screw the pooch here.
