Economics #2

Mother earth is a name for earth. However, it does not mean that earth is a living entity. The idea that the earth is alive comes from a pantheistic worldview. It is incorrect to view the earth as a living entity because God has made a covenant to man, to destroy the earth. But however in the bible, we see that God has only changed it. This is evident through the flood. It would be a sin to trash the earth because it is a part of God's creation. God commanded us to be good stewards of his creation. So we must treat the earth with respect towards God.
