Earth's Heart

Jesus speaks about being buried in the "heart of the earth."  It is in Matthew when he speaks about Jonah.  The earth has a heart?  Jesus seems to think so, and he is God.  The earth lives and breathes.  It takes into its womb (Spanish translation) the body of Jesus.  From death comes new life.  So why do we trash the earth as if it were some inanimate object made up of rocks and dirt.  The earth held the body of Jesus for three days.  He came out of that experience in pretty good shape, wouldn't you say?  To me, when we trash the earth, I believe we are trashing God.  Some of us go to church on Sunday, say we love God, and then go off and pollute our world, God's world.  It does not seem like much of a holistic faith.  If you thought God were an environmentalist, would you give up your religion, rather than downsize? You cannot have it both ways.
