	instead of witnessing to thy grace.	0:07
	The peace and joy without its offer us	0:11
	we sold for power and prestige.	0:14
	We have trusted too much in the work our hands	0:18
	and in the fruit of our laboratories.	0:22
	We have made the cleaner dirty.	0:26
	And we have behaved as though we were the last generation	0:29
	which would need to live on this planet.	0:34
	We have not remembered our total need of the wisdom.	0:37
	Save us from all sin, we humbly pray,	0:42
	through Jesus Christ our Lord.	0:47
	Amen.	0:50
	Hear the good news.	0:53
	This statement is completely reliable	0:56
	and should be universally accepted.	0:59

-	The reading for the morning comes from the 104th Psalm.	7:17
	Bless the Lord, my soul.	7:25
	O Lord my God, thou art great indeed,	7:28
	clothed in majesty and slender	7:31
	and wrapped in a robe of light.	7:34
	Thou has spread out the heavens like a tent	7:37
	and on their waters laid the beams of thy pavilion.	7:40
	Who taketh the clouds for thy chariot,	7:43
	riding on the wings of the wind.	7:46
	Who maketh the winds thy messengers	7:48
	and flames of fire thy servants.	7:51
	Thou didst fix the earth on its foundation	7:54
	so that it never can be shaken.	7:57
	The deep overspread it like a cloak	8:00
	and the waters lay above the mountains.	8:03
	At thy rebuke they ran, at the sound of the thunder	8:06
	they rushed away, flowing over the hills,	8:10
	pouring down into the valleys to the place	8:12
	appointed for them.	8:14
	Thou didst fix a boundary which they might not pass.	8:16
	They shall not return to cover the earth.	8:20
	Thou makes springs break out in the gullies	8:23
	so that their water runs between the hills.	8:26
	The wild beasts all drink from them.	8:29
	The wild asses quench their thirst,	8:31
	the birds of the air nest on their banks	8:34
	and sing among the leaves.	8:37
	Countless are the things which thou hast made, O Lord.	8:40
	Thou hast made all by thy wisdom	8:43
	and the earth is full of that creatures,	8:46
	beasts great and small.	8:49
	Here's the great immeasurable sea in which move	8:51
	creatures beyond number, here ships sail two and fro,	8:54
	here is Leviathan whom thou has made thy plaything.	8:59
	All of them look expectantly to thee to give them their food	9:03
	at the proper time.	9:06
	What thou giveth them they gather up.	9:08
	When thou openest thy hand they eat their fill.	9:11
	Then thou hideth thy face and they are restless	9:15
	and troubled.	9:18
	When thou taketh away their breath they fail	9:19
	and they return to the dust from which they came.	9:22
	But when thou breatheth into them, they recover.	9:26
	Thou giveth new life to the earth.	9:30
	May the glory of the Lord stand forever	9:33
	and he rejoices in his works.	9:35
	When he looks at the earth it quakes,	9:37
	when he touches the hills they pour forth smoke.	9:40
	I will sing to the Lord as long as I live,	9:44
	all my life I will sing psalms to my God.	9:47

-	The Lord be with you	10:35
-	And also with you.	10:37
-	Let us pray.	10:39
	Let us offer first a prayer of thanks.	10:47
	We thank thee, gracious God, for things we take for granted.	10:52
	For another day of life,	10:58
	for bread upon the table,	11:02
	for friends who love us in spite of what we are,	11:05
	for mercy given us beyond our deserving,	11:10
	for the immeasurable joy of joy,	11:15
	for the holy saints and for the holy heretics,	11:21
	for the opportunity of worship in this good place,	11:27
	for Jesus Christ, our risen Lord, unto whom with thee	11:33
	and the Holy Spirit be all glory and majesty,	11:38
	world without end.	11:42
	Let us offer a prayer of intercession.	11:46
	O God who has taught us that we are members one of another	11:50
	and has formed us for fellowship with one another,	11:55
	hear our prayer for all kinds and conditions of men.	12:01
	We bring before thee our world,	12:06
	torn, distraught, anguished.	12:09
	Grant strength and courage abundant to all who work	12:15
	for a world of reason and understanding,	12:19
	Especially to the United Nations.	12:25
	We bring before thee our own nation,	12:30
	land privilege and opportunity,	12:33
	land of prejudice and irreverence,	12:37
	land of memory and of hope.	12:42
	Grant us to realize that what unites us	12:46
	is more lasting than what divides us	12:50
	so that we may be the United States in fact	12:54
	and not merely in name.	13:00
	We pray for our civic community	13:06
	so often set in rivalry to our academic fellowship,	13:10
	where town and gown avoid,	13:15
	rather than despise each other.	13:18
	Teach us that we are members one of another	13:23
	and that it is good for brethren to dwell in unity,	13:26
	that in courtesy and appreciation is our mutual wellbeing.	13:32
	We ask this in the name of the Prince of Peace,	13:40
	even Jesus Christ, our Lord.	13:44
	And let us offer a prayer of supplication for ourselves.	13:49
	O Lord be with us so that we feel thee like hands upon us.	13:57
	Uphold us so that we know the like strength beneath us.	14:05
	Go with us so that we have thee like love within us.	14:14
	Before us in our goodness and against us in our evil,	14:22
	keep us from all things shallow and unholy	14:30
	and move our wills to seek the deep being of thyself.	14:36
	Protect us from all times and places that destroy	14:41
	and deceive and give us grace to show the justice	14:45
	and mercy to all men that we would ask for ourselves.	14:50
	Make fruitful our prayers.	14:57
	And now as our Savior, Christ, has taught us	15:01
	we humbly pray together saying.	15:04
	Our Father who art in in heaven, hallowed be thy name,	15:08
	thy kingdom come, thy will be done	15:14
	on earth as it is in heaven.	15:18
	Give us this day our daily bread	15:21
	and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those	15:25
	who trespass against us.	15:29
	And lead us not into temptation but deliver us from evil	15:32
	for thine is the kingdom and the power	15:37
	and the glory forever.	15:40
	Amen.	15:44
-	In this secure garden spot of beauty and holiness	16:13
	we may for the moment feel safe and exempt	16:20
	from the environmental crisis.	16:25
	But it's really not far away at all,	16:29
	no further than the litter and messiness in the halls	16:33
	you may have waded through on your way here this morning	16:37
	and the dirt paths you traverse across the green lawns	16:43
	of this campus.	16:47
	If I were a per block,	16:50
	sometimes I do a cartoon to illustrate	16:54
	the marvelous inconsistency of which	16:57
	the human frame is capable, showing a gang of Duke students	17:00
	roaring along route 751 in a convertible	17:06
	and the caption would be that one of them is saying	17:11
	to or the other, while tossing his beer can	17:15
	out of the side of the car,	17:20
	you know, Joe, the only way to solve this	17:21
	environmental crisis is to have federal laws	17:25
	against pollution.	17:28
	There's no need to rehearse at length the dire dimensions	17:32
	of the crisis which we can begin to make out	17:36
	looming in the smog.	17:41
	The awareness that if he follows his present lifestyle,	17:45
	in relation to the earth, man is headed for catastrophe.	17:50
	Until recently, conservation was regarded as a hobby	17:58
	for bird watchers worried about the fate of flamingos.	18:04
	Now, as Senator Muskie has put it, quote,	18:11
	it is no longer a question about preserving the whale,	18:16
	the wolf or the roseate spoonbill,	18:21
	man himself has joined the list of the endangered species,	18:27
	end quote.	18:32
	There are many enormous forces	18:35
	which put man's very existence in jeopardy.	18:38
	These are in the dynamics of our national economy.	18:42
	For one thing, the using up of unreplenishable	18:48
	natural resources.	18:53
	Our technological industrial urban economy	18:56
	has an insatiable appetite in raiding the earth	19:01
	and plundering the planet.	19:08
	In strip-mining, in slash forestry, in bleeding the soil,	19:11
	we devastate with no conscience for posterity.	19:19
	For another thing, the tools of technology are used	19:27
	in the dynamics of our me to increase productivity	19:31
	and efficiency, the gross national product,	19:36
	at whatever cost to the earth	19:41
	and to the delicate balance of life with life	19:44
	in nature's system.	19:49
	If in insecticides increase the yield of fields	19:53
	and orchards, then we pay the price of a silent spring	19:56
	where no birds call.	20:03
	If we've got to pipe oil from the Yukon	20:06
	than the whole ecological balance of Alaska is expendable.	20:09
	If we've got to get there faster in super jets	20:15
	to stay number one in the world,	20:22
	then the noise and pollution of air,	20:25
	not to speak of the hunger of the poor,	20:28
	is the cost Of high speed living.	20:32
	In all the talk of the new prosperity	20:37
	promised for all fellow Americans,	20:42
	no one dares to whisper the radical doubt that there may be	20:46
	an inverse ratio between quantity and quality of life.	20:50
	To suggest that a man's life does not consist	20:59
	in the abundance of things he possesses	21:02
	would be dismissed as un-American,	21:07
	even un-Christian.	21:11
	Though it is a suggestion from the Bible.	21:13
	For another thing, our rate of waste	21:18
	is polluting the whole place,	21:22
	making it barely habitable.	21:26
	Production waste pollutes the air with smog	21:30
	and our water with filth.	21:33
	Exhaust fumes from the internal combustion engine	21:37
	account for about a half of the air pollution.	21:40
	Consumer waste pollutes the landscape with bottles, cans,	21:45
	trash, cars,	21:48
	9 million abandoned every year,	21:52
	about 150 each day in New York City alone.	21:55
	We pollute the airwaves with such blasts of noise	22:01
	that we become deaf to real sound heard in stillness.	22:06
	We are creators of more noise than our souls can absorb	22:14
	or endure.	22:20
	The forms of pollution are subtle	22:24
	and made out to be almost benign.	22:27
	A calm voice on TV reassures us	22:33
	we are working to keep your trust.	22:37
	Texaco will never willfully pollute the environment.	22:42
	But is not the air willfully polluted by exhaust fumes?	22:48
	And the scenery polluted by larger and larger signs	22:55
	with bigger and bigger stars?	22:58
	And the airwaves polluted by commercial ads,	23:02
	celebrating the pure motives of Texaco?	23:05
	Mix some other factors into the crisis,	23:13
	such as the population explosion,	23:15
	the growing gap between the line of population growth	23:19
	moving sharply upward and the line showing the resources	23:23
	of the earth to sustain life moving downward.	23:27
	Or the political factor of the international	23:33
	imbalance of power between the nations that have	23:35
	and the nations that have not.	23:39
	America has 6% of the world's population	23:42
	and controls 30 to 40% of the world's resources.	23:46
	Add all these into the mix and one can sense	23:52
	even from this beautiful place, the dire,	23:57
	the apocalyptic dimensions of the crisis.	24:03
	Now to be sure, the ecological crisis of our man's misuse	24:11
	of the earth is not exactly new.	24:18
	William Blake wrote of England's dark, satanic mills.	24:25
	And Wordsworth, you remember, found his London of 1802	24:32
	a fin of stagnant waters.	24:40
	Plain living and high thinking are no more.	24:45
	Well if Wordsworth could visit Newark or Lake Erie	24:51
	he might agree that the rate of the ecological crisis of man	24:59
	in the imbalance with this environment	25:03
	has mounted considerably.	25:05
	Well how will it all end?	25:11
	With a whimper or a bang?	25:14
	Under the threat of nuclear weapons, we've long felt	25:19
	that it would most likely end with a big bang	25:23
	when somebody pushes the wrong button in a panic.	25:29
	But given the facts of the environmental crisis,	25:35
	it's more realistic to expect that it will end	25:39
	when the last man staggered out of the last parties	25:45
	poisoned by the mercury in his tuna fish salad sandwich	25:52
	to drop finally to the asphalt,	25:58
	overcome by the fumes from his car exhaust	26:03
	and whimpers to nobody in particular,	26:09
	well, we blew it, man.	26:14
	But the muzak would continue indefinitely to play.	26:18
	And that would be a good definition of hell,	26:26
	a situation of indeterminable muzak	26:29
	and nobody left around to turn it off.	26:32
	The American conscience is being alerted	26:41
	to the environmental crisis.	26:44
	We're increasingly sensitized to the future shock to come.	26:48
	There are institutes and books and programs and courses	26:54
	and university centers.	26:57
	Ecology is one of the interests of the new	27:01
	Institute for Policy Sciences in public affairs	27:04
	here at Duke.	27:07
	It may seem almost irreverent to suggest this	27:11
	amidst the established religion of scientism	27:17
	before the holy of holies, the great computer,	27:22
	but it should be pointed out to these institutes	27:30
	that there is theological wisdom to be brought	27:35
	to this crisis, theological wisdom in understanding	27:39
	how we got into this impasse and how we might get out of it.	27:44
	For it is not by technical expertise alone	27:52
	that we may be saved.	27:58
	All the data in the world about geology, soil, chemistry,	28:01
	demography, sociology, economics, politics,	28:08
	fed into the computer will not yield the answers	28:14
	to the questions of values and ends, of good and evil,	28:21
	of the priorities in the loves of man's heart,	28:27
	of what he worships.	28:32
	If we ask, how come?	28:37
	Who or what is the villain of the peace?	28:40
	Is it the machine itself?	28:46
	Technology that has swerved us to the brink of genocide?	28:49
	Is it the city, the proud towers of Babel	28:57
	whose economy requires us to befoul the earth?	29:04
	Is it the system, the establishment,	29:09
	the military industrial complex and the kings of the economy	29:13
	are who are to blame?	29:18
	In the last analysis, when we track the devil	29:23
	back to his lair we'll find him in our own hearts.	29:28
	We have met the enemy and he is us.	29:34
	It is our greed, our passion for affluence, comfort, speed,	29:39
	efficiency, show, national pride and power	29:47
	that sustain these demons who ravage and litter the earth	29:53
	to feed our pride and vain glory.	29:58
	And this diagnosis is what the Hebrew Christian tradition	30:02
	has been making for quite some time.	30:05
	Out of the heart of man are the issues of life,	30:11
	noble and foul.	30:16
	Viewed theologically, the nub of the ecological crisis	30:20
	is the encounter between the love of the Lord God,	30:27
	the creator, and the sin of man.	30:30
	There is Biblical wisdom as well as technical knowledge	30:36
	needed for this crisis.	30:41
	The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom	30:44
	and to depart from evil is understanding.	30:50
	How might this wisdom be phrased?	30:57
	Unlike Eastern mysticism,	31:05
	the Hebrew Christian faith	31:09
	is very earthy, mundane, materialistic, secular.	31:11
	The created order of things by the hand of God.	31:19
	Whatever is in its created nature is good.	31:25
	The earth is the Lord's and the fullness thereof.	31:29
	The myth of Genesis and the songs of the Psalmist	31:37
	celebrate the good order of all things.	31:42
	Nature from sand to stars is not a veil of illusion	31:45
	to be transcended, but a garden.	31:51
	The created order is an interdependent organic ecosystem,	31:56
	delicate yet also resilient,	32:04
	where what is done with one part profoundly affects another.	32:09
	All things by immortal power, near or far,	32:16
	hiddenly to each other, linked are	32:21
	that thou canst not stir a flower without troubling a star.	32:27
	The created order of balance of all creatures	32:36
	with all other creatures	32:39
	is given as the ground and setting for man,	32:42
	the crown of creation to use, to cultivate, to till	32:45
	and to keep in reverence.	32:51
	In accountability to the Lord of creation	32:56
	for his stewardship.	33:00
	One reading of the Biblical myth blames	33:04
	our exploitation of the earth on the Hebraic ethic	33:08
	which put man over nature in prestige	33:12
	as privileged to subdue the earth	33:17
	in arrogance over nature.	33:22
	That's a bad misreading of the whole matter.	33:26
	For one who lives truly in reverence,	33:31
	in awe at the wonder of the magnificence of creation	33:36
	and who feels the solemn obligation of stewardship,	33:44
	of its bounty, for the service of neighbor	33:48
	cannot willfully exploit or pollute the environment.	33:54
	That would be to play God himself.	34:00
	God the creator sets the terms of this covenant	34:05
	to be taken seriously.	34:10
	They are not violated with impunity.	34:14
	When I am basically inconsiderate toward things and people	34:19
	and say, who cares?	34:24
	Somebody else can clean up my mess after I'm out of here.	34:28
	The mess will come back upon me, maybe in another form	34:33
	the next place I go.	34:39
	In an interdependent economy, man cannot cop out of	34:42
	being his brother's keeper.	34:47
	He cannot escape his obligation to protect the earth	34:49
	for his neighbor's life and health.	34:55
	And his neighbor is the far neighbor	34:58
	as well as the near neighbor,	35:03
	far off in space and far ahead in time.	35:06
	When man exploits the earth in arrogance	35:13
	with no concern for the distant neighbor in posterity,	35:17
	then the earth become the wasteland, becomes the enemy.	35:24
	Man encounters its violent backlash	35:29
	and read theologically, this is God's judgment.	35:33
	The left hand of God's sovereignty.	35:38
	As one ecologist put it,	35:43
	there's no such thing as a free lunch.	35:45
	Every benefit derived from nature has a cost factor.	35:49
	You don't take out of the ecosystem without paying for it.	35:54
	And the price may be one that a man's children	35:59
	and his children's children will have to face,	36:04
	the bitter one of a ravaged earth	36:09
	and of a strangled brutality of life in the city.	36:14
	But the God of the Christian faith is also the God of grace	36:22
	who offers forever to man in whatever extremity	36:31
	the opportunity to return, to renew his life,	36:36
	to come back to his senses.	36:41
	God gives us in grace, a conscience,	36:45
	the haunting sense of trouble, of oughtness	36:49
	and always a measure of freedom to make new choices	36:54
	to live again in the style of the order of creation.	37:00
	Man's response to grace and forgiveness	37:07
	lies by way of returning to the covenant terms	37:11
	of the ecosystem.	37:16
	The use of the earth for the service of neighbor	37:19
	out of reverence to its Lord.	37:24
	A response to be expressed in public ways,	37:30
	in witness for public policy that controls pollution	37:35
	and the exploitation of the soil, by law,	37:40
	and in private ways in his style of life at home,	37:44
	in the dorm, on the road.	37:49
	One real sign of grace, I think incidentally,	37:54
	is the new simplicity of the lifestyle among the disciples	37:59
	of the counterculture.	38:03
	The new generation of the free people,	38:06
	the cyclists, backpacking all their worldly goods,	38:11
	returning to the elements of nature.	38:17
	They a refreshing judgment on the American delusion	38:21
	to which most obese, bored middle-Americans are prey.	38:28
	That you have to have a mountain of mechanical gadgets	38:36
	and creature comforts to survive.	38:40
	All the decisions of consumer choices for simplicity	38:45
	are marks of health among us, signs of grace and renewal.	38:50
	In the ethical writings of the medieval monks and mystics,	39:00
	there often appears a curious, startling phrase.	39:07
	To pick up a straw for the love of God.	39:14
	This is the spirit of the Christian life.	39:20
	That is the most insignificant, menial tasks of daily life	39:24
	can be transmuted into significance if done	39:32
	out of a heart of reverence	39:36
	within the total context of existence.	39:41
	True worship is to be expressed	39:47
	in the right use of the heart	39:50
	in picking up a straw, in plowing and harvesting,	39:55
	in conserving the soil,	40:00
	in considerateness toward property and persons.	40:03
	That medieval command might be translated into our culture	40:08
	by this phrase.	40:13
	To pick up a beer can for love of God.	40:18
	The God who puts into our keeping this earth	40:24
	as a precious, precarious home	40:30
	and the one with whom in our stewardship of all things	40:34
	we must ultimately reckon.	40:41
	Amen.	40:46
	Let us pray.	40:47
	Almighty God who has entrusted us with the good earth	40:56
	as our home and charged us to watch and keep it undefiled,	41:00
	renew now within us, we pray thee, a right spirit	41:09
	toward all its forms of life and a will to care	41:16
	for thy glory and our good,	41:23
	through Jesus Christ our Lord.	41:28
	Amen.	41:33
