But people worship it and they just can't let any of it go.
Look, if an animal dies off, maybe evolution's just cleaning house on the California condor.
Sorry, Spotted Owl! You didn't make the cut! You're done!
You know? I mean, it's all survival of the fittest, but the Spotted Owl's dying!
Let it die! Mother Nature is saying that it needs to go, it needs to go!
See ya!
And it's true! We're nature!
But no, the hypocrisy is unbelievable. Everything's nature except us.
Everybody needs a habitat except us. You know, we're messin' it all up.
There's a plan that God has where animals live somewhere, then people move in,
kick the animals out, and build a city, and live there.
And there's plenty of space for everybody and everything in this world to get along just fine.
But people say, "No, no, it's such a shame when these animals are losing their habitat!"
You know, man needs a habitat too, okay?
Can we have a place to live, please?
And it's funny, people always say, "Oh, you're upsetting the cause of nature!"
And then they teach that we're animals. Now, hold on a second.
If we're a species of animal...
I told this to this environmentalist recently that was giving me all this environmental stuff.
I told this environmentalist, I said, "Well, wait a minute."
I said, "If we're just evolved animals..."
I said, "What's the difference between the high-rise that we build and the beaver dam?"
You know, he's building stuff, he builds a beaver dam, we build Hoover dam.
You know what I mean? What's the difference?
We are, you know, we are nature.
If we're animals, we're nature. We're part of nature, we're part of the ecosystem.
Oh, but you guys are just out of control.
Well, I thought evolution fixes all that.
It's funny how for billions and billions of years, supposedly, evolution's just been keeping this perfect balance,
where it's just automatically self-correcting, survival of the fittest, and then all of a sudden, whoops!
You know, Mother Nature goes to sleep at the wheel and let man just get out of control and take over the whole world.
That's what God's plan was, to have dominion over it.
And he sent Isaiah chapter 40 that he formed it to be inhabited.
God created this world for mankind to inhabit it.
He said, "Have dominion over the fish. Have dominion over the birds. Have dominion over the creatures."
And guess what? The animals that we use the most are the ones that will never go extinct.
Do you think chickens are on the endangered species list? Think about it.
The best way to keep an animal around is to start killing and eating it.
I mean, cows. Are cows endangered? Are pigs endangered? No.
Oh, but there's this, you know, this special lizard that we're never going to see again. So what?
I love what he says at the end of verse 6. "O Lord, thou preserve us man and beast."
You know, in a day where it's all about the wildlife preserve.
We've got to preserve this animal, and we've got to preserve the saguaro,
and we've got to preserve all these endangered species, but wait a minute. God preserves man and beast.
"Save the past for animals, so the animals of God extinct."
You know what? Jesus Christ coming back one day said, "I'm going to make all things new."
He'll make another saber-toothed tiger and woolly mammoth. He'll make a new one.
He'll make a California condor, you don't have to worry about it.
