- Living things are compatible with the
elements that secure the balance of
nature
No living thing, apart from man, disturbs the
balance in nature. Furthermore, they are created with
features that maintain that balance. Yet, the balance
of the earth is always vulnerable to man's ignorant
behaviour. For instance, if man hunts a species
beyond reasonable limits, that species becomes
extinct. The extinction of that species causes its prey
to increase in numbers far too much, which in time
endangers the lives of human beings and even nature
itself. So, there is an innate balance in the creation of
living things; They are totally compatible with the
balance of nature, but man alone has the potential to
destroy that delicate balance.
- Living things are compatible with the
factors that provide benefits for human
beings.
For instance, think about how good honey is
for you. How do bees know that you need such a type of
nutrition, and how do they produce it? Could a chicken, cow or sheep
know the nutritional needs of human beings and produce perfect nutrients
to meet those needs? Of course not.
