Bully Arrington's latest contribution to the science of ID quotes one A W Tozer as follows:

 
Quote
But he knows also that the Absolute One has made this world for man’s use,...


Which is jolly decent of Him but what about all the other planets which it looks increasingly likely are out there?  Are they all for our use or are they for the other Pinnacles of Creation that might be there first?

And if we get there before they manage to get here will we do to them what European powers did to native peoples that had the misfortune to be in the way of manifest destiny?  Could there ultimately be interstellar war to decide which is the biggest pr...pinnacle of all?

Also, the Wikipedia article about Tozer notes the following:

 
Quote
Living a simple and non-materialistic lifestyle, he and his wife, Ada Cecelia Pfautz, never owned a car, preferring bus and train travel. Even after becoming a well-known Christian author, Tozer signed away much of his royalties to those who were in need.


I wonder how many of the posturing proponents of political piety we hear so much from follow a "simple and non-materialistic lifestyle", eschew automobiles and give away much of their wealth to charity?
