It's easier to visualize when we are close to nature. How do you see large urban centers and ecosystems? Urban infrastructure performs some ecosystem services, but others not at all...a very artificial environment.just mehttp://www.justme.orgnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7377497904882186501.post-51592365971968182852009-09-10T07:42:43.459-07:002009-09-10T07:42:43.459-07:00Simply, Faith will not create a system of religion...Simply, Faith will not create a system of religion....... <br /><br />As stated previously, "that which is called ""progress" is of mankind's "imag"ination and can pervert, yet not destroy, that which is Spirit", and so it is that this world, and it's systems of religion, have their version of "Light", which can be turned on and off; <br /><br />Their version of "Truth", which is of the "imag"ination; <br /><br />Their version of "Love", which should be called lust; <br /><br />Their version of "Peace", which needs be enforced; <br /><br />Their version of "Hope", which is but a desire for temporal "things"; <br /><br />Their version of "Faith", which is powerless; <br /><br />Their version of "Grace", which is the liberty to "do your own thing"; <br /><br />And sadly, the favorite color of this world's religion is gray ;-( <br /><br />So come out of the shadows! And as is said by many, "Get Real"! <br /><br />Once again, "only that which is Real is Forever, and only that which is Spirit is Real"! <br /><br />Hope is there would be those who "see" that The Life is in and of The Spirit. <br /><br />Those who "see" will no longer have their portion with the multitudes who are destroying the earth(water, air, land, creatures, vegetation) and perverting that which is Spirit(Light, Life, Truth, Love, Peace, Hope, Faith, Grace, Mercy, etc.) ;-( <br /><br />Simply, each breath(Spirit) you take is a revelation of The Source of Life. <br /><br />And "A Simple and Spiritual Life is the only Life that will survive!" <br /><br />Forever....... <br /><br />So "set your affections on Heavenly things" and be not of those "whose god is their bellies because they mind earthly things". Be not of those who "love this world and it's things" and who are "progress"ively destroying the earth(land, air, water, vegetation, creatures) and perverting that which is Spirit(Light, Life, Truth, Love, Peace, Hope, Faith, Grace, etc.)....... <br /><br />Peace, in spite of the dis-ease(no-peace) that is of this world and it's systems of religion, for "the WHOLE(not just a portion) world is under the control of the evil one" (1John5:19) indeed and Truth....... <br /><br />Truth is never ending.......elderchildhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09827206019505093406noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7377497904882186501.post-53208287328900841852009-09-10T07:42:01.982-07:002009-09-10T07:42:01.982-07:00Simply, "progress", so-called, is destro...Simply, "progress", so-called, is destroying the earth(land, air, water, vegetation, creatures) and perverting that which is Spirit(Light, Life, Truth, Love, Peace, Hope, Grace, Miracles, Faith, etc.) ;-( <br /><br />And The Creator(G-D, Father,Spirit) has promised that HE would "destroy those who destroy the earth(HIS Creation)!" (Rev11:18c) <br /><br />Yet there is a Living, Lively Hope! <br /><br />However, such Hope is not for that which is of the earth, earthly and fleshly, but there is a Living, Lively Hope for that which is Spirit, Heavenly and Spiritual. <br /><br />Hope for that which is Spirit is Alive because "progress", which is the product of mankind's "imag"ination, can pervert, yet not destroy that which is Spirit! For that which is Spirit is Real, and only that which is Real is Forever! <br /><br />So no matter how perverse this world's systems of religion become, that which is Spirit can only be abused and perverted, not destroyed! <br /><br />That which is Spirit is Eternal....... <br /><br />And as for that which is called "religion"? <br /><br />Pure religion and undefiled before G-D The Father is this, to visit the fatherless (those children who know not their Father, HE WHO is The Only True G-D, Father{Creator} of ALL) and widows(those who have not "experienced The Messiah and The Power{Our Father} that raised Him from among the dead") in their affliction and to keep oneself uncontaminated by the world......." (James 1:27) <br /><br />Simply, all other religion is impure and defiled, and so it is that those who are of this world, those who are "contaminated by this world" are destroying the earth....... <br /><br />And notice that "pure and undefiled" religion is of "oneself(individual)", a Brother or Sister doing The Will of Our Father, led of The Holy, Set Apart, Spirit....... <br /><br />Corporate "religion" is pagan, and of this wicked world(babylon)....... <br /><br />And "Brothers and Sisters" is not "religion", for what are Brothers and Sisters if not Family? Would not The Family of The Only True G-D, Father(Creator) of ALL, known by many(yet experienced by few) as "The Body of The Messiah" be joined in Spirit as One? And would not such a Family be much closer than any natural, fleshly family? <br /><br />What is declared to be "religion" today is truly the devil's playground....... <br /><br />(continued in next comment)elderchildhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09827206019505093406noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7377497904882186501.post-64893958458093403682009-09-09T21:47:51.780-07:002009-09-09T21:47:51.780-07:00Sustainable natural sea and forest farmings would ...Sustainable natural sea and forest farmings would solve most of those problems and it is the system that support for the future of food security. We should reduce animal farming and mass fishing but instead do more vegetables, fruits and wildlifes farmings just like Torfolk Gard. To save the earth, it would be a good idea or start to eat less meat but more fruits and vegetables. Trees can absolve a lot of pollutants. Do we human need so much meat?
