NATURE AND MAN
1. Nature is what we are part of. We are connected with it, not the lord of it. We are never gods.
2. Nature is what sustains us life; kill it, we all should die.
3. Nature has its order as God designs it. We are one with nature, we are part of it, we are connected with it, we are dependent with it. We are being thrown into the world to be a part of this (grand) design. So fulfill it! We do not know the consequences once we break this divine design.
3. Man may have power to change the course of the river, but he will have no power over its consequences. We are not gods who are above and can control the nature, we are one with nature, we are living with it. We are not detached from nature, we are connected.
4. What happens to nature deeply affects us. That is how we are connected with it. Cut the tress, we won't have foods. Poison the water, we have no water to drink. Poison the river, animals that we eat shall die. Poison the land, we'll have no fruits to eat. So tell me? Are we still above this nature?
5. Nature has its laws, laws that we should discern. Science depends on these laws; technologies are made from understanding its laws. Thus, nature is still powerful over the crafts of man, as the latter is created from the former. Man still has to make treatise with it so he could innovate without destroying his life.
6. For the humanity who thinks they're gods because of that so-called technology that they can do the impossible, think of this: Before we create technology, why should we have to undergo studies and researches? Can we create technology completely from our ideas, or is there something we should make treatise with?
7. Fool are we who think we are gods, because of our crafts. Technologies, before it is created, shall have to understand and abide the laws of nature designed by the true God. Otherwise, destruction shall come for those who do not discern.
8. Therefore, the aforementioned truths makes me convinced: we are NEVER above nature, we are part of it. Only the true God has the power to lord over the course of nature.

MORALITY II
1. What is morality?
Morality is not a set of restrictive codes that is meant to use as a social control, or a set of selective standards that would breach our own autonomy, freedom and individuality as a person. Morality is a form of a SOCIAL CONTRACT as to how to respect each other who equally possess the same dignity and freedom as a human being. It is a UNIVERSAL TREATY which appeases our conflicting ideas and desires so that everyone would not undergo suffering and exploitation. It is a COMMUNAL CONSENSUS on how to leave in peace, order and harmony as one society.
2. Why should we all be MORAL?
We all have our different desires and wills of our own. However, one's own will differs from the other; one's own desire differs from the other, that may lead to a further conflict. HUMAN COMMUNITY IS CHAOTIC IF IT IS LEFT AS IT IS, but we all desire to live in harmony peace and free of pain. For that reasons, societies, cultures, and religions constructed this kind of consensus so that we can live our lives without compromising the right of others.
We may all desire to live our lives according to our own dispositions, but unfortunately, WE ARE NOT LIVING ALONE. You are living with other people in the same space, and those people also have their own right, dignity, freedom and autonomy as you are. A thing that you should ave to compromise with. Like you, they also want freedom an not be controlled by others; like you, they also have the same dignity; like you, they also have their own sentient and rational capacity; like you, they also detest to undergo suffering, pain and exploitation, and like you, they also want to live in peace. This is the reason why RECIPROCITY has been a universal more, i.e. Do unto others what you want others do unto you, or do not do unto others what you don't want others do unto you. We all have the same goal, the same dignity, the same capacity, that is why we RESPECT is an imperative.
