Hart

I was fascinated by Hart's description of how we view nature. Hart said, "Nature for us is a single, internally consistent thing, an event, lovely and enticing. then terrible and pitiless, abundant and destructive at once, but moved neither by will nor by intelligence; it is sheer fact. I feel as though we have a love hate relationship with nature. We admire it's beauty, but then when something destructive happens it turns our whole view around. We cannot outsmart nature, or outwill it, so we in turn feel helpless against it and rely on God to deliver us from its destruction.

I commented on Sierra's post.
