We must not start with the narcissistic conclusion, and then try to find evidence to support it. The fact that God created us, and the rest of the world, is all important, even perhaps critical. We cannot isolate ourselves from the rest of that Creation and say we are critical and everything else is not.

Narcissism has nothing to do with it kosta50. I'm not "starting with a conclusion," then struggling to find evidence to support it. Actually, in this case, the evidence came first.... (Actually, it's quite a scary idea....) Nor do I hold any brief for regarding ourselves as "isolated from the rest of creation." Nothing could be further from the truth!

Tsk, tsk, tsk: You are using "either/or" thinking here!!!!! :^) LOLOL!

I disagree.

The entire Bible is an "if-then" (either-or) proposition, betty boop. :)
