I'm just sharing this following view, not in an
argumentative sense or missionary, preacher sense. I
believe in G-d. I don't believe G-d is just external
or just internal. Just here. When people ask me what
G-d is, I just answer them by saying I didn't create
any of this, and G-d is a mystery and I don't know
what G-d is. G-d is mu and yet, here concretely.
What G-d is for me has changed since I was younger.
When I was younger my parents influenced me more as to
what this G-d 'thing' is. My dad just repeated to me
what his dad said to him, which my grandfather said to
my dad one day, "I know who my G-d is. Do you know
who your G-d is?"
I just said all this to possibly show how I
believe in G-d and yet, I live in freedom and
authority. An authority, as in science, where what a
rock is in its' elemental and/or particle breakdown is
what the rock is. The rock holds the authority as to
what a rock is. Anyways...

The sharing of ones personal testimony is one form of valuable religious
communication. Each of us attempts to find patterns that fit our individual
experiences of the sublime. When it comes to the description and integration
of such experiences any explanation, theistic, mystical or can only be
relevant on the individual level to the individual having the experience.
What we value is determined by our past experiences.

I agree. I am not limited by your purpose, and
you might not be either. I do agree stewardship is A
purpose, though, and to pass "the buck to some
abstraction" and not take "ultimate responsibility" is
to unground and separate our morality from who we (I)
are (am).

However, I do think the view that we are the Owners and Masters of the earth
is not healthy.

Excellent. You went above and beyond what I was
asking, but I'm very glad you did for you've explained
much of what I may have sooner or later asked you.
Thank you very much.

Anytime!
