Hello, TheKnothead! Welcome to the forums!

I think you're right, to some extent, about the "different flavors" idea. When it comes to Christianity, sure. As a Christian, I don't know how far I can go with it, though, when it comes to other faiths.

The Bible does very specifically tell us that we are to be stewards of the Earth and I'd have to agree with you that, as a whole, we're not doing a very good job of that.
