He is not letting His creaton go to waste, There is enough resources and enough to spare.
What you have asked about is hype and media control frenzy.
it is clearly written that the world will be destroyed if everyone becomes evil, but it is also less clearly written that if all men repented of their sins the WORK of the LORD would be cut short in righteousness. Either way all things will be saved, except the things that offed and the people who are unrepentant, of course.
And this planet will survive beyond another thousand YEARS and in some places it is described as becoming a PURE sea of Glass, a glorious kind of exaltation to a planet that gives birth to the NEST generation of the sons of God.

God gave us the planet, free will and the values to make a succcess of it all. On the day of judgement He will resurrect/ retain those obedient to Him, who will create and care for paradise earth. The rest will be in Sheol, the common grave of mankind. The alternative was to create creatures without free will and programmed to do only what He wanted. That is what The Bible says. Anything else has been conjured up by someone since Christ.

Why should belief in mythical monsters in the sky or backward beliefs help anyone or anything. They're just crutches for the menatlly inadequate - which could be why the world has som many problems - imagine a country like the US - governed by a superstitious believer in fairies at the bottom of the garden. A lethal scenario.

He isn't. It is necessary that He step aside and allow man free will. He will not interfere with that. Otherwise, at judgement, you could say "yes, God, but maybe i would have done it different, except that you interferred". Well, you aren't gonna be able to say that.
The world can be a pretty sad place; thats what happens when man runs things. Let this be a lesson that man screws up everything he is given free reign to do.
All is not lost. Christ will make it all good -
and nobody is getting away with anything.

Faith in God may save this dying world but faith in religion may expedite the dying process.

Modern religions-ie Christianity/Islam are most definitely not the solution. Some of the most atrocious crimes have been propagated through these two religions especially Christianity-the most blood thirsty of them all. What better proof for the non existence of god. If he is omniscient, omnipotent and eternal he has really messed up big time. If you want to be cynical about it and looking at about 2000 years of history since Christianity took over (assuming that god exists) it seems we have been worshiping the devil in disguise. ignorance, crusades, inquisitions, holocausts etc are on the agenda of this one. The good guy is in absentia.

He gave creation to man to look after
Man lost it to Satan in the garden of Eden apple incident
God made a way back sending Jesus to pay for all our sins once and for all, as he stated "it is finished."
God calls us back into fellowship with him but being a gentleman he will not force us to surrender our free will and return because he says so.
Jesus is coming again and there will be a new Earth and new Heaven. Before then it gets pretty nasty because Satan knows he's been defeated and has only a short time to try and screw things up.
All things do work for good for those who trust in God.
"For in the furnace of much affliction I have chosen the behold, so for iron I'll give you silver, and for brass I'll give you gold."

i would worry about saving my own soul first then worry about all the others this world is going to be done away with just lilke it did in the time of noha God destroy the earth with water the first time he said I will never desrtoy the earth with water again, the next time it will be with fire and brimstone
if you want to look at it from the time of adam & eve was 2000 years until Moses and from Moses until Noha was 2000 years and from Noha until Christ was 2000 years and from Christ until us is 2007 years so we are just alittle over do until something great happens just something to think about and ponder over for a minute or two

No, but faith in Jesus Christ can stop you from repetition. It will also help you to accept that this dying planet will only be dead when God says so.

It is faith and religion and god that is making this wonderful creation go to waste. If we forget god, faith, religion and concentrate on being good humans, loving and caring all other humans, and treating them as we would want to be treated, then, and only then, can we make this world a better place for ourselves and everyone else. God, faith, religion etc. only makes fanatics and war, resulting in destruction and death.
