Animal Idolatry
'Prophecy Watch' by Mike FordGod has granted mankind dominion over creation, but this does not permit the destruction of what He has made. Man is called to act responsibly, yet often fails to do so, as animals are tortured and environments are devastated for profit. God instructed Adam and Eve to tend and keep the Garden of Eden, maintaining and helping it produce, while allowing the use of certain trees for wood and animals for meat. However, no part of His creation is to be equated with man or worshiped. Though God gives certain rights to animals and charges us with responsibilities for their care, He did not endow them with human abilities, rights, or obligations. They are not made in His image, and thus a human life holds infinitely greater value than an animal's. We should not feel guilt for using the land God has entrusted to us to tend and keep, as it is given to men and women, not to animals. Yet, there are instances where animal lives are prioritized over human well-being, such as when a child endured painful rabies shots to spare otters, or when a man was forced to remove a protective fence due to laws protecting snakes, violating his safety. These examples reflect a troubling trend of ascribing human emotions and characteristics to animals, elevating them to a near-human plane, which can border on a form of worship when courts and lawmakers place animal rights above human needs.
