Earth Day ~ A day late & a dollar short

It occurred to me that the way most people celebrate Earth Day, if indeed it's a celebration at all, is by dwelling on lack and shortages. That is a peculiar form of celebration; instead of rest, gifts and laughter, it is a day of work, sacrifice, and lecturing. It is sort of like an un-Thanksgiving.

And who is there to thank on Earth Day? Gaia? Hardly.

Earth Day is an event spawned from evolutionist thinking.


The earth is the LORD’s and the fullness thereof,
the world and those who dwell therein,
for he has founded it upon the seas
and established it upon the rivers.

sings the psalmist of №24.


The difference in perspective is substantial. Evolutionists serve the earth rooted in fear that it is running short, wearing out, and getting dirty. Creationists preserve the earth to honor the Creator.
