Reverend Rodimer posted a funny cartoon depicting a politician dismantling the Endangered Species Act. And it got me to thinking about God's plan for us on this earth and why He lets some animals and plants go extinct.
God put animals and plants on this earth either for us to use, or to teach us how to be strong in the face of adversity.
Deer, Cattle, Sea Turtles and the like were put here for us to eat. Minks, Chinchillas, and baby Harp Seals were created to keep those of us who can afford beautiful coats made out of their luxurious fur warm on cold winter nights.
God made Redwood trees huge and long lived so we could cut them down and build sundecks, hot tubs, saunas, and spas out of them. If we eat all the turtles or make coats out of all the Snow Leopards, we will simply move on to the next most desirable creature.
Mosquitos exist to vex us, and when they are not around, we praise the Lord that he did not not make more of them. The same goes for fleas, scorpions and venomous reptiles, although rattlesnakes do also taste quite a bit like chicken, so God killed two birds with one stone when he created them.
And speaking of killing birds with stones, that brings us to the Dodo. If God wanted the Dodo Bird to still exist today, he would have made it smarter and he would have given it the ability to fly.
The Dodo was a large, flightless relative of the ordinary pigeon that was first discovered around 1600 on Mauritius, a lovely tropical island in the Indian Ocean. Less than eight years later, they were all gone. You see, the Lord made them intensely stupid and delicious!
Most of the birds were eaten by the hungry Christian sailors who discovered them. They were very trusting birds. If you wanted one for your dinner, all you needed was a large stick or a rock and a cooking pot. You see, when not looking for food or raising chicks, God's obedient Dodo simply stood there, waiting to be eaten.
When so called 'scientists' try to prevent an animal from going extinct, they are altering God's perfect, holy plan. As such, they are not only wasting their time, but they are also condemning themselves to Hell.
