Thread Name: to being or not to being?
Subject: RE: to being or not to being?
What? Bizarre. I agree with the comment that if they complain that activists are worshipping trees the loggers are as guilty of determining policy based on the worship of money, or of some nebulous deity quaintly referred to as 'progress'. Something a little closer to say Satanism, through Mammon, than tree worship. Any of the logs they wish to cut down destined to grace a religious building? Probably a mixture of deep ecology and shallow ecology would be the best, a deep end to dive into and a shallow end for learning how to swim. No matter what science can or cannot say it still comes down to a belief system of some kind or other in how the findings are applied. Thanks for bringing this up thosp, something to fix my morning rant on.
