"The imminent and expected destruction of the life cycle of world ecology can be prevented by a radi­ cal shift in outlook from our present naive conception of this world as a testing ground of abstract morality to a more mature view of the universe as a comprehensive matrix of life forms. Making this shift in viewpoint is essentially religious, not economic or political." (Vine Deloria Jr., Leslie Marmon Silko, George E. Tinker – God Is Red A Native View of Religion Fulcrum Publishing (2003))
