Four hundred miles out in space, NASA's Aqua satellite has taken pictures of the oil slick in the Gulf of Mexico caused by the explosion of the Deepwater Horizon drilling rig. In this image from Sunday, the center of it is about even with the mouth of the Mississippi River. We're told it covers 400 square miles.
I believe that in order for mankind to move forward and become a sustainable, environmentally conscious, global community, we must ditch the bronze age myths that we are here on this planet because of a supernatural being, and instead work to build a society based upon the principle of doing what is best for all human beings, all animals and this wonderful planet we call home.
