One thing I don't understand about organized religion is why they don't care about being environmently friendly. Isn't Earth created by God in all of these religions and wouldn't God by saddened that we are destroying it? Why is it not talked about in churches?

The books (since they all share the old testament in one way or another) talk about it, us being good shepards and responsible for all beings. Just a little, but it is there. Somewhere in the beginning.

It's just that we're assholes and if something doesn't fit our narrative we ignore it.

Just like all the books make killing crime no 1, but we go "yeah, no" when it suits us. (in war you may kill because i say so and you may kill that Israeli, westerner or arab because they are subhuman unbelievers/desert rags.)

The commandments are very clear and there are no exceptions possible according to the book. But we made those up anyway. Which is weird. Here we have the guiding principles of being, given to us by god and we choose to disregard them. Sometimes even in the name of god/allah/Jahweh.

Disclaimer: not an active Christian. Just had to go to a lot of sunday school in my day.

Bible thumpers have a tendency to ignore the parts of their holy text that would improve life for the majority and instead focus on the more farcical elements.

And God said, Go ye forth upon the Earth and pick and choose which of Mine words ye wish to use to torment your brethren.

At least in christ, human is supposed to rule the world. Typical medieval mindset.

Because there is an afterlife where you will live for eternity, so just accept fate and follow god's plan for you—god has a plan for everybody.
