SPOILER! ANOTHER environmental movie!

Rating: 1/10 (16 August 2008)

Over the past several years, there have been an influx of movies geared toward making our public more aware (and sometimes, scared) of our misuse of the environment (like "Armageddon," "Day After Tomorrow"). Now, M. Night Schyamalan has joined the ranks of the ridiculous treehuggers and wrote and directed his own scare-tactic movie about the environment entitled "The Happening", starring Mark Wahlberg.
Look, people, I have no problem doing things to protect and preserve our environment, like recycling at work (yeah, my condominium complex, along with so many of D/FW's apartment complexes don't have recycling facilities!), but PLEASE, don't use scare tactics like "The Happening" (where plant life releases toxins in the air, causing homo-sapiens to begin committing suicide!) to scare me into submission. I would much more prefer to follow God's provision in Genesis 1:26-30 (ESV):
"Then God said, 'Let us make man in our image, after our likeness. And let them have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the heavens and over the livestock and over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth.' So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them. And God blessed them. And God said to them, 'Be fruitful and multiply and fill the earth and subdue it and have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the heavens and over every living thing that moves on the earth.' And God said, 'Behold, I have given you every plant yielding seed that is on the face of all the earth, and every tree with seed in its fruit. You shall have them for food. And 'to every beats of the earth and to every bird of the heavens and to everything that creeps on the earth, everything that has the breath of life, I have given every green plant for food.' And it was so." Night, write, direct and produce a movie about the above quote and give me a call!
