Earth perennial victim, mankind eternal villain

Filed under: Culture — shelray @ 4:37 pm

God created us in His own image and likeness, making us a unique individual, as we represent a special attribute and characteristic of His, never before created and never again to be reproduced. We reflect God in a way that nobody else can or will again. The more we do His will, the more his splendor shines out in us. - Rosary Meditations from Mother Theresa of Calcutta

Eco-terrorist Paul Watson mourned the loss of seals, after hearing about the death of 4 seal hunters, while seeing his fellow man as nothing more than a virus infecting mother earth. His hope is a future, where the world population would drop below the 1 Billion mark and insists that no human community should ever be larger than 20,000 people and separated from other communities by wilderness areas where other species are free to evolve without human interference.

From Hug the Earth, kill the humans

Watson is the symbol of a movement that originated in a desire to improve the planet’s physical condition, but transmogrified into the zero-sum dogma of eco-spirituality, in which the object of worship is the environment, and the messianic goal its return to a pre-civilization Edenic state. In this scenario, Earth is perennial victim, mankind eternal villain, the consumption of natural resources original sin. No emotionally manipulative appeal is beyond the pale for this pagan religion’s demagogues, even the shameful appropriation of racist tropes. Alpha eco-spiritualist novelist Alice Walker claims, “the Earth is the nigger of the world.”

Violence is nothing more than a fear of love. And when you fear love, where do you turn ?

“There’s nothing wrong with being a terrorist as long as you win. Then you write the history”

We’re at war, and we’ll do what we need to win.

[I see] a spark of hope in every broken window, every torched police car.

Animal Liberation Front tactics are going to continue. There’s not a damned thing you can do about it, you’re not going to stop it. So you might as well incorporate it into the movement.

I don’t think you’d have to kill — assassinate — too many [doctors involved with animal testing] … I think for 5 lives, 10 lives, 15 human lives, we could save a million, 2 million, 10 million non-human lives.

You can justify, from a political standpoint, any type of violence you want to use.

I think that violence and nonviolence are not moral principles, they’re tactics.

So much hate and judgment among the intolerant. How can one expect to accept and love another human being despite the ugliness of our nature, when they can’t see that same ugliness within themselves?
