Rather than man deciding the value of science and technology, these creations of man have become the criteria of man's worth and value. Practically the only protest that is heard is that of the conservationists and other lovers of nature. Their voice, although of much value, is not fully heard because their arguments are often taken as being sentimental rather than intellectual. Wellknown theologians and philosophers have for the most part remained silent or have bent backwards in order to avoid offending the prevailing scientific mood of the day. Only rarely has any voice been raised to show that the current belief in the domination of nature is the usurpation, from the religious point of view, of man's role as the custodian and guardian of nature.
