Merely stating a point. Im not going their.

   

You are stating an opinion.

   

God gives to man authority over all that was created on earth. Man is to take care of and use the earth. Man is to have the authority over all that was created. This means that man is to assume the control and protection of all that God had created. We must be careful in this role. Many are for protecting every animal no matter the cost both to mankind and to the animals.

However, it is important to notice what God does after the sin of man. Genesis 3 gives to us the details of the first sin man commits. In verse 21 God prepares for mankind a covering out of skin, for the first time an animal dies. The implications from this flow throughout the Word of God; because of man's sin, death has entered the world. However, for our discussion on animals it is important to understand that the animals are to be used by men for OUR NEEDS.

In Genesis 9 there is a change between man and animal. Up to this point, animals were not used as food. However, God now includes all animals in the DIET of mankind. God also puts fear of man into the animals. Again animals are used to fill the needs of men. However, God continues His command in verse two to watch over these animals.

   

Ok, before Contact, Happy now?

   

No. I don't agree. God has nothing to do with the misery in Africa. If he had, he would fix it, and you would stop blaming the white man for all that is bad in this world.

I rest my case. Have a great day

   

I didn't say He's resposible for the misery in africa. Noo, I think Most caucasions are good, Beautiful people. Thier is asn odd one that needs to be put in his place, no doubt.

   

I was the best speller in my class. who is the famous person?

   

   

That pretty much shows the quality of education you got.

It was Einstein, Einstein.

   

well. there's 0.9 Billion people in Africa so 5 birds per person won't get you very far.

And, only 50 million wildbeasts, you say? That is 200? people for every wildbeast.

I think some of them better consider becoming vegetarians.

   

Crops ain't growing in the desert, dahlin

   

Meh I guess they don’t pray to the right deity, I guess if someone put god in their hearts they could dine on fish and wine...

I think the question has been answered many times over by the other posters, you are a troll BC, wear it with pride.

   

Are you refering to rats? In India rats are sacred and have some sort of religous meaning to them. That's why everybody was saying WHAT?! when the President of India suggested if they were starving they should eat rats.

   

I was in Somalia in '93 when refugees were starving everywhere. While we waited at 'humanitarian zones' for food trucks that would show up and hand out food then pack up and leave 15 minutes after the international news crews left, leaving about 1/3 of the crowd with food, and the rest to beg from the others (and us). While this was going on, in Brava (sp) about 60km away there was a refinery style tank storing grain that would not be leaving for it's destination because the buyer found somewhere else to buy (I assume since the port was a little dangerous). Instead of that food going out to the starving it was left to rot so the company could recover insurance for it.


Aside from the age-old use of starvation as a tool of war, people starve in Africa for the same reason they starve here: food isn't free.

   

Africa is not a country. It's a continent with 54 countries and the wildebeest are not in all of those countries, the majority are in the Serengeti plains in a few countries in east Africa. Do you think it's the responsibility of the countries in east Africa to feed all the starving people in other countries in other parts of the continent? If so, how would you suggest all those countries go about making an equitable deal with each other, and how should they go about delivering the goods?
