I think that most sensible Christian denominations have accepted that stewardship of the planet is more important than dominating and subduing it.

I'm sounding so religious in this thread! shocked

Well, Adam was given the task of naming all the animals . He just didnt get to see all of them in his lifetime., so other scientists had to do it for him

If Adam had seen the dinosaurs , he would have named it simply, like "Big Fecking Lizard", scientists had to name " brachiosaurus "

One of my favorite epigrams, titled "Fleas," by the famous and always popular Anonymous.

Adam
Had 'em.

Sorry, that holds about as much water to me as,
"Once upon a time..."

Don't get me wrong,
My grandfather on my mom's side was a minister,
and I was a Bible teacher for quite some time,
it took quite a while to wean myself away from the
notion that to fully embrace the logic of science
could be accomplished without Incurring the Wrath of
"The Big Bogey-Man In the Sky" ...seriously,
it's been harder than switching from the ubiquitous
WINDOWS PC to The Mac OS.. ask iMacsoontobe wink

But once I did,
it was like removing a pebble from my shoe.

LOL pretty much like switching to OS "X" once it
all starts falling into place...
Who needs "a watchmaker" (Creator Figure) when
the wonders of a Naturally Occurring Universe
spread out before you like a carpet of stars?

Yes, it means that you no longer have the comfort
of a "Father Figure" in times of travail... nor
do you get to have Someone to Blame, or to use
as an Excuse for Shyte Behavior, you finally take
a degree of responsibility for the mess we're in,
but that's a small price to pay for growing up.

Back to Topic; "Unbelievable" wink jest sayin'...

...anyway...
to paraphrase a popular saying around these parts,
"That's my OPINION, and I'm sticking to it!"
