This research paper: 10 pages in length. One of the many alternative explanations of the source of environmental problems was advanced by historian Lynn White, whose thesis contends the environmental crisis is due to the teachings of Judaism and Christianity in which Western culture has created a warped view of the proper relationship between humans and their environment. Upon examining White's article, it is clear to see his assertions are correct, in that religious teachings – particularly Christian in nature - instruct followers to look upon the environment as something to "subdue" (White, 1967, pp. 1203-1207), have dominion over and otherwise control to the point of absolute exploitation. According to White (1967), these gross misinterpretations are the fundamental reasons mankind faces the environmental problems that exist in contemporary society. Bibliography lists 10 sources.
