Reading Jane Goodall's book Reason for Hope she points out that at one time there were 2 million chimps in Africa and now (1999 publish date) there are only 150,000. A drastic reduction to say the least. Why does man in the search for truth and knowledge not realize our encroachment on nature will eventually be our own demise. I noticed recently while peeling a potato the skin appeared to be so thin. When we mess with Mother Nature, in this case called genetic engineering, we are messing with God in the wrong way. Another example is a documentary we (hubby & I) were watching on TV about the salmon in Idaho not being able to procreate because of the dams (8) that were built on the Columbia River (through Idaho). The salmon could not get back to their breeding grounds. Artifical hatching did not work...the forces of nature are powerful, witness the devastation in Alabama this past week and yes there are endless examples. Man may be strong but man is NOTHING compared to nature and God's designs.
Killing off natural habitate, buying exotic pets, not taking nature serious, not paying attention to what God intented versus allowing our egos to control our actions against man and beast and earth, not good!
