<P>Joshua,</P>
<P>You never fail to entertain me. You contradict yourself all the time. If you believed anything scientists said you would believe in evolution. Yet now you try to use them as a source. You also change the meaning of the word "dominion" to mean butcher, slaughter and abuse. Mankind shall have dominion over the Earth. That means we are suppose to take of it, not destroy it. </P></DIV>
<P>Not that global warning is important, the second coming will be here before we can destroy ourselves.</P>

<DIV></DIV>&gt;The earth was made for man, not man for the earth. If you're an evolutionist, you have no place objecting to men taking charge of the earth anyhow. Survival of the fittest, right? And of course humans consume of the world's resources! That's like saying ocean creatures drink ocean water. 
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>&gt; 
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>&gt;As to blaming mankind for everything: 
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>&gt; 
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>&gt;The extreme wing of environmentalism is the animal rights movement. Their leading advocate, Princeton professor Peter Singer, is a fanatical (but wholly consistent) evolutionist. He says, ‘There is no ethical basis for elevating membership of one particular species into a morally crucial characteristic. From an ethical point of view, we all stand on equal footing–whether we stand on two feet, four feet, or none at all.’1 
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>&gt; 
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>&gt;In practice, however, animal-righters usually regard man as lower than the animals. After the Valdez oil spill which killed 30,000 birds (about 0.1% of the area’s population), some called it a worse tragedy than the 1984 chemical leak in Bhopal, India. But this killed more than 3,000 people and injured 200,000 others.2 Many animal liberationists have said it is acceptable to use ‘defective’ humans in scientific tests as opposed to testing things on healthy animals.3

<DIV></DIV>&gt;And on the idea of global warming in the same article: 
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>&gt; 
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>&gt;Some researchers point out that analyses of actual measurements of surface temperatures have shown no warming trend at all.1 
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>&gt; 
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>&gt;A new satellite survey of over 2,000 glaciers indicates that most of them are shrinking. Thousands of images from NASA’s Terra spacecraft were compared with aerial photos of up to 20 years ago. Most had shrunk ‘by hundreds of metres, some by several kilometres’, while the lakes at their base have generally grown larger.2 Some think this may be part of a natural cycle (Greenland was much greener c. 1000 ad).
