This wasn’t meant to offend or scare anyone. I am certain there are many people of faith that believe should take care of our planet. As one person commented, the Jewish faith has been assigned the responsibility to take care of the planet. They got that one right. Buddhist and our Native Americans are people of faith and they both believe we should take only want we need to sustain ourselves. I get that.

It just seems that there is a segment of our country that feels that “global warming is a hoax “ and let’s ignore the facts mentally, is hurt our environment. I find this think really disturbing.

The crazier ones do.

The point is, the right leaning as a whole tend to be more for foreign intervention, and the right leaning as a whole also tend to be more religious.

The more religious you are the greater the chance you believe in an afterlife.

So the hypothesis or question is: If one whole-heartedly believes in an after life, does that correlate with a decreased amount of care for the natural material world, because of the supposed bliss on the other side?

I think it’s an important question. I really do. For the sake of humanity and all life in general.

I thought I was the only one who had this theory.

That's a good question. I don't know! I would appreciate that some of them wake up and notice what they're leaving thier children and the newest family tree members

I have found that to be exactly the case. They consume without end as they believe everything is within "god's" plan, with nothing more important than humanity. With these two assumptions. I've seen behavior of "Christian" nations that consume and reproduce as much as they can, as it's been assumed to be within god's plan.

Generalizing scares me.

Some feel the need, or consider it a mandate, to be stewards of the earth. Others are concerned only with their next life and don't care whatever for the environment or future generations.

I definitely think christians can think like this. Not sure about other faiths though. Didn't know that about rabbinical teachings. The current jewish state is not being all that ecologically friendly. Can say that about every country though...

That's something to think about, you may be on to something.

They are not even thinking of their death they are concentrating on their life.

That is exactly the reason they give when I ask them.
