What is God doing to protect endangered species?

endangered species



If God loves everything he makes, then he loves, I don’t know, some animal on the endangered species list. Let’s say Polar Bears.

Is God just going to let the bears die? He hasn’t done anything about it yet…when is he going to step up and re-freeze their enviorment?

Oh wait, that would cut into science. If you refreeze the melted part of the North Pole, wouldn’t sea levels decrease at a dramatic rate? That would effect more species in the sea. Wait, can’t God just protect everyone? Oh wait, he can’t. Because if he could, wouldn’t the Wooly Mammoths still be here? They’d live in peace with us because God would want them to, wouldn’t they?

Please explain.

    There is no God, it’s up to you and me and everyone else alive on this planet. We have to work together on this, or nothing will happen.

    What are you doing to protect endangered species?

    How do you know it’s not God’s will to let mankind suffer from it’s consequences of being selfish and greedy?

    We don’t know God’s will, and we can’t even debate God’s true nature. No one knows.

    I’m one to believe that God isn’t “letting” the bears die. Personally I think this is the natural course of the earth, and unfortunately it was mankind that caused so many endangered animals.

    Nothing, because God is imaginary.

    God’s protecting them through you.

    And he told me to tell you to get off the computer and do something about it instead of asking inane questions.

    according to the bible, god sent a flood because he wanted to kill every single living thing on earth, except whatever noah saved. doesn’t sound like god would lose too much sleep over the polar bears dying out.

    This “God” that you speak of is a cop-out. The true God is all of us collectively. God is not responsible; we are. Other than that, it comes down to survival of the fittest. That is how organisms become perfected.

    God let the Jews die.
    God let the Indians die.
    God let the Cambodians die.
    God is letting the people in Darfur die.
    God is letting the people in Iraq die.

    God gave you people permission to do to the world whatever you want.
    are you simple?

    God created you with a free will and a mind to think for yourself so that you could think on your own. Try it for a change… Good luck…

    Personally, I haven’t seen scientific evidence of God doing anything. Most people interpret people doing the work of God. So, if you believe in God, then you’re the one who has to make a difference. If you don’t believe in God, then you’re still the one who has to make a difference. That’s assuming you care.

    Did you hear the joke about the guy stuck in the quicksand who prayed for God to save him? Anyway, three people stopped to help and he refused, saying that God would save him. He gets to heaven and asks God why he didn’t save him. God says I sent three people.

    Either way, it’s up to you.

    I beleive when God created all of the living organisms on the planet, he did not just put an exact adequate number on the planet to sustain it, but He also put an abundance of “surplus” species just to show how much of a variety there could be and the magnitude of his power to create. I beleive that many more species can become extinct once they have served their purpose. It is not that God does not care for certain species, it is just that they have served their purpose and were never truly vital to the ecosytem to begin with. Maybe their species has been replaced in energy with the extra energy that humans are now using?

    God put US in charge of animals to do what we want with them. Stop acting like God is a human that acts like a child with decisions or just not caring. He only cares about us and put us in charge of His creation. If you are concerned about the bears, do what the gays did to preserve their lifestyle… start a revolution and don’t take “no” for an answer if you care so much.

    According to scriptures, the world will eventually be destroyed and remade. If that proves true, all the current animals will die, anyway. Of course, all the species may also be made anew…

    Sounds like you’ve had a healthy dose of brainwashing, my friend. The polar bears are okay…watch a few years and you’ll see that nothing is really changing anymore than what happens periodically.

    On the other hand, you seem to want logical answers from a being that is so far above our human logic? Ain’t gonna happen, my friend. His reasons for anything are so far above our understanding…don’t even bother trying to understand.

    In the meantime, don’t be taken in by all the crud out there that you hear. Look at all sides of a situation before you conclude that the worst has happened. I’d be more worried about the next time we get bombed by Al Queda - that’s reality because it has happened!

    Well this is because god is imaginary and knowone really cares about the enviroment. Most people are self absorbed and do not care about anyone but themselves.

    gee there guy you religious people are great every time “god” made man according to you with a BRAIN and he did that so you could use it but man would rather not use their brain and just use “god” as a great way to be lazy and corrupt while the world falls apart!!

    The tooth fairy killed the wooly mammoths, but lets get to more current issues. Big Foot actually has the copyright on polar bears so the whole endangered polar bear issue is all tied up in legal/custody battles between the Big F and G-dog.

    God is the cause of mayor exstinction of Animals and the wholesale destruction of nature

    Animals have no soul
    animals are created inferior +
    Animals have no feelings
    Nature is godsgift to Man to hunt and destroy into oblivion as they like
    Go civilize the wilderness and replace it with farming
    Devils come from the wilderness,In Mexico people have burned forrest becouse witches were living in the trees.
    etc almost all organized religions disrespect Nature
    and its treasures are gratis to be plundered
    Christian land owners regard properties that are millions of years old ,as their own to be done with as they please

    native cultures regard them selves as guardians ,that only very briefly inhabit a place in its lifetime

    In Pagan cultures one has to pay for the gifts of Nature
    animals are brothers ,to many people even trees or plants are ,Indions ask the gods for permision to hunt or catch fish

    in my world travels ,the greatest disrespect for the flora and fauna in general was in Christian and Muslim countries.

    even today amongst Mexican Natives there is a wide spread knowlege and respect ,for animals and Natural Medicenes

    where there was god ,Always there was Man to carry out his wishes or live according to his views

    Based upon the simple fact that God either doesn’t exist or has very little influence here in the universe. I’d say it’s very likely he’s doing nothing much.

    us humans lied to God
