The Endangered Species Act has been manipulated much as has the definition of “poverty” in this nation - the “threshold” keeps growing larger and larger.

I find it difficult to believe that the “American Eel” is endangered - I know people who fish on the lower end of the Arkansas River who see them very regularly on trotlines.

An interesting observation on those who keep pushing for more an more protection for supposedly “endangered” species:

The vast majority of those who are nuts about “protecting” these bugs, worms, rats, etc - also are radical evolutionists... Yet doesn’t the theory of evolution include the mantra “survival of the fittest”?

Some so-called “endangered” species are not threatened because of mankind - but because the species does not adapt. How many species became extinct before mankind had any possible impact on them? According to the same evolutionists - thousands or even millions.

Romans 1
The wrath of God is being revealed from heaven against all the godlessness and wickedness of men who suppress the truth by their wickedness...They exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshiped and served created things rather than the Creator—

Notice this is not WHY God is showing His wrath, but HOW He is showing his wrath.

How many species became extinct before mankind had any possible impact on them?

99% of all species that have lived on planet Earth have gone extinct.
