WHO OWNS PLANET EARTH?
RIGHTS AND RESPONSIBILITIES We set out to explore Space and discovered Earth. The view from Space set me on my Earth Day/Earth Trustee mission. Remarkable coincidences are part of the mystery of life. I have experienced many coincidences that some would consider a divine miracle. Whatever the explanation, I know that back in 1969 I prayed about an idea I had. I then felt led to pick up my fathers bible, open it at random and put my finger on any part of the page. I dont make a practice of such things, but on this occasion the scripture I got was Psalms 115:16 The Earth hath he given to the children of men. This was right after I had written a brief article, Planetary Inheritance, contending that the natural earth was the property of the whole human family. While no one has any rights to the results of other peoples labor, everyone has equal claim to Earth’s natural bounty — oil, gold, land. The scripture I got in the Psalms was the one scripture in the Bible that best confirmed this.
