Awe & Wonder – religious responses Buddhism the universe is one single, vast living thing all parts of the natural world depend on each other Hinduism the world is sacred as everything in the universe comes from God and is part of God Earth is our mother and we are her children

Awe & Wonder – religious responses Christianity God created the universe as an expression of his love Humans have the responsibility to care for and protect the natural world Judaism God's creation is good and deserves thanks Humans have the responsibility to defend nature against exploitation and abuse

Awe & Wonder – religious responses Islam The universe was created by God and belongs to him, not to humans God's oneness is reflected in the oneness of humans with nature Sikhism The complexity & order of creation shows what God is like People misunderstand the universe – it exists because God wills it to exist

Awe & Wonder – evaluation Humanity will perish from a lack of appreciation of the world rather than a lack of understanding of it. Rabbi Heschel, Jewish thinker Do you agree with this? Have some people lost the ability to be amazed and delighted at nature & the universe? If so, why?
