The Importance of Religion in Fighting Suffering
Even the religion which was most dedicated to ending suffering found way to justify it fully, Yuval says. Our second theme is about whether or not we should treat the earth as a resource for commodities and elements that benefit humans. And should we use the natural resources of the earth from rainforests to lithium mines without regards to the impacts?Yuval: I wonder if it's just the fact that we can't have a conversation with nature. We don't know if it's good or bad, but the assumption is this thing happens to us, thus it must be good.
