Hi!
Joe - please - you can not convince me of my sanctity/sacredness and the
Earth's sacredness if you do not answer the question WHY? Why am I sacred?
Why is the Earth sacred? I agree we are - my answer is because of GOD - what
is your answer? Then if we agree - why would a GOD who created us and made
thus making us sacred - stay hidden and not send a messenger to inform us?
Then we would wonder does that God love us? Your view is too simplistic - it
doesn't delve into the WHY - people want to know why - why did God create us -
why does God love us - why did God send his love in form of a son - why does
the sun provide such warmth - keep asking WHY and you get your answers - if
you answer your question with OK it just is that we are sacred - that doesn't
cut if for me - WHY are we sacred? By virtue of what are we sacred?
Peace!
Angela
