A WORLD GONE MAD

The London Daily Mail recently reported that Toni Vernelli, 35, had aborted her child 10 years ago because “pregnancy is bad for the environment.” She was so concerned and moved by the possibility that the planet might be destroyed that she was also sterilized. In my opinion, the latter action might actually have some effect on the planet Toni was quoted as saying, “Having children is selfish. It's all about maintaining your genetic line at the expense of the planet.” Her hope is that this will keep her carbon footprint to a minimum. How responsible!!! Too bad she didn’t take responsibility before getting pregnant. We are living in a WORLD GONE MAD! Is it possible to actually believe that we can save a universe which God created by destroying the very creation for whom God was willing to die?

From the beginning, man was given dominion over the earth. Genesis 1:28 And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moves upon the earth. I believe we are to be good stewards over everything that has been placed under our authority, including the earth and our environment. We must never forget, however, that the earth was created for mankind, not man for the earth. The creator, himself, has promised, Genesis 8:22 While the earth remains, seedtime and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease. So much for global warming.

Has this woman and her Carbon Footprint Extremists considered the end result of mass sterilization to save the planet? It would mean the extinction of mankind including environmentalists. Without human life the earth becomes a huge ball of molten rock and dirt spinning aimlessly through the cosmos. At one time in history, man was so evil that even God was sick of creation. But out of his Holy Disgust, God preserved 8 people. And what do you think God did when Noah walked out into the newly washed earth? He gave him dominion over it all. Genesis 9:1 And God blessed Noah and his sons, and said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth. 2 And the fear of you and the dread of you shall be upon every beast of the earth, and upon every fowl of the air, upon all that moves upon the earth, and upon all the fishes of the sea; into your hand are they delivered. 3 Every moving thing that lives shall be meat for you; even as the green herb have I given you all things.

The Bible says that God so loved the world that WHOSOEVER not WHATSOEVER could have eternal life. Yes, God does clothe the lilies of the field and sees each sparrow that falls, but he shed His blood for people. People like you and me and even environmentalist.
