Native Americans were also spiritual and believed that the Earth had a creator. They certainly didn't think that creator was the God of Abraham.
He saw how little "whites" cared for the environment.

If we as a human race do not respect Mother Earth, then we disrespect the Creator...many nations, whites included, have little respect for the ways that have been passed by many generations of traditional peoples, which is to respect and honor all. If we do not care for the earth mother, we will find that what we do comes back to haunt us..many races take for granted that which is a gift..as Seattle said: "the earth does not belong to us, we belong to the earth..."

It's pretty straight forward.....the white man has been the devils tool to build up the machine and tread down the earth...the fact that they've done it using the word of God as a shield makes it even more Heinous.....!!!!!! And with such arrogance act like they own this land and belong here while others don't is just as heinous!

It means that someday, the people of the earth will wise up and we won't have to drive a car to work every day polluting the environment and all or take so many plane trips to rip holes in the ozone.

Being white has nothing to do "harming the Earth, heaps contempt upon its creator".
All of us will past away, which color really don't matter.
The only thing we know that will not pass away are God's words.
All the wisdom of the world including this man will not be remembered.

The meaning is obvious of course....Remember the Indian with a tear in his eye on the anti-litter commercials....that dude was awesome.
