The third or Biblical view, is neither Eastern nor Western, that the earth and the universe were designed with humanity as the crown of creation and utterly special. Nature is, in this picture, neither chemical nor divine, but a supernaturally co-created gift of God that has suffered a terrible loss because of the failure and neglect of its appointed caretaker --- man and woman.
