I am so tired of the whole “cool pope” thing with Francis. It’s 100% PR.

    This “dominition over other living beings” thing is an antique mindset that caused so much damage to the environment.

      True, but Genesis also says that humans were made to tend the Garden of Eden, so others argue, based on that and a few other passages, that humans are supposed to care for the Earth.

      As usual, the Bible can be interpreted any way you want it to. You can use it to defend murder and use it to condemn murder. The same book.
