I believe that they do & even those who don't follow a religion could agree on this...what are your thoughts? :)

Before I give thanks to nature, I give thanks to God, because without him, no nature would exist.

If nature were something that had deliberate intentional directed activity, it might be appropriate. But nature is, of course, nothing of the sort: it does not exist for mankind's betterment, or detriment -- it just exists. Thanks are irrelevant. So is religion; it can be proved that belief (or not) in any religion has no useful consequences. And, if you are doing science, belief in supernatural forces is not admissible: a scientific law can only be based on observation of factual data.

I am thankful for nature. I find God in the rustle of the trees, the brightness in the flowers, the intricacies of the circle of all life.
It breaks my heart to see deforestation, or the loss of an animal because we come into their homes.
Though I am not a tree hugger - I have been known to blow them kisses!
I am Christian

Religions generally don't care about nature. They think the world is going to end soon and they'll be taken to a better place. So what reason do they have to worry about the environment?

I can't speak for other religions, but the one that I follow honors nature.

Religion does, people who belong to a religion rarely thank nature. which they should.

i'm getting to understand to do it with agape love. this is a no longer hassle-free street, yet properly actually worth the stairs. :) needless to say, now and lower back it is so complicated it is going to be left on my own. if so - the main secure, least complicated and wisest element to do it circulate on.

I appreciate nature because God created it. I don't worship nature.

Sure, i would think so. God is the creator, we can be thankful for what He created, just be sure to worship the creator and not the creation.

no. christians give thanks to god. god made nature, why would you thank something that was created instead of the creator?
