Kiwi Conservation Club

The Kiwi Conservation Club is part of Forrest and Bird and has quizzes, games, other stuff, and a Join Us link. Members can get Wild Things magazine five times a year.
And remember, it is part of the Christian worldview to take care of the environment, but not to worship it. We are to take dominion over the planet, but we are also to “tend the garden” as God told Adam. [Add link to Catalyst website re conservation from a Christian worldview perspective.]
It is important at this time in history for Christians to be aware of the trends and thoughts of our society and world. Environmentalism is certainly a hot topic, and something Christian theologian Francis Schaeffer addressed in his book Pollution and the death of man: The Christian view of ecology. This book is a good read and even though it was written quite a few years ago, and like much of Schaeffer, lives on well beyond his days.
To quote Francis Schaeffer, “We have the right to rid our house of ants; but what we have no right to do is to forget to honor the ant as God made it, out in the place where God made the ant to be. When we meet the ant on the sidewalk, we step over him. He is a creature, like ourselves; not made in the image of God, it is true, but equal with man as far as creation is concerned.”
