                           - Living things are compatible with the

                           elements that secure the balance of
                           nature

                           No living thing, apart from man, disturbs the
                     balance in nature. Furthermore, they are created with
                     features that maintain that balance. Yet, the balance

                     of the earth is always vulnerable to man's ignorant
                     behaviour. For instance, if man hunts a species
                     beyond reasonable limits, that species becomes

                     extinct. The extinction of that species causes its prey
                     to increase in numbers far too much, which in time
                     endangers the lives of human beings and even nature

                     itself. So, there is an innate balance in the creation of
                     living things; They are totally compatible with the

                     balance of nature, but man alone has the potential to
                     destroy that delicate balance.

                           - Living things are compatible with the

                           factors that provide benefits for human
                           beings.
                           For instance, think about how good honey is

                     for you. How do bees know that you need such a type of
                     nutrition, and how do they produce it? Could a chicken, cow or sheep

                     know the nutritional needs of human beings and produce perfect nutrients
                     to meet those needs? Of course not.
