To: Rodney King
Thus they have substituted mother nature for God, and made the "environment" their religion.

I am all for montheism, but it does not seem like you are aware of the fact that humans, for most of our history, did worship the "environment". There are an awful lot of humans who still do so in an organized fashion. Only Western religions are as you describe.

Also, it seems to me that you failed to answer the question about why those who do worship God seem so careless about His creation sometimes.

Oh, I am aware of that, I think it butresses my point that in the absense of God, people go for the most tangible thing of beauty - mother nature.

That I can't help you with - I don't know.
