Is a person's respect for nature (or lack thereof) a good test of morality and intelligence?
Additional Details
The nature-haters I've met (and observed in debates) tend to be low-down, greedy and generally despicable people. It's behavior you'd expect from those who can't even appreciate what's keeping them alive. We have a rare planet with life-support systems that Man is pushing to the limit for the sake of "the economy." What is so sacred about "the economy" (only industrialized for a matter of centuries) that puts it above ancient ecological systems?
A common trait of nature-haters (e.g. global warming deniers and mockers of endangered species) is that they think the human economy is more important than what allows it to exist in the first place; in other words, a stable set of ecosystems and predictable climate patterns.
I'm sorry if this question seems somewhat rhetorical, but I'm really getting tired of all the right-wing garbage in the world. These ungrateful, arrogant people need the tar beaten out of them.
