America

Until recently, human beings did not realize they are an intrinsic part of the natural world. They are subject to the laws of nature. They are gifted with free will and can act destructively toward other inhabitants of the planet whether these others are animate or inanimate. Yet just as the Founding Fathers of America wrote a Constitution to guide its inhabitants for peaceful governance, so too the Great Creator of the Universe, often referred to as God, has its own requirements or laws for the ongoing health of the planet.
