This is an important question. If we believe that creation is given to us by God and reveals its God-given meaning to our senses and intellect, then we will be more likely to respect it. But if we believe that nature isn't created by God, then it has no God-given quality that we are bound to respect. It is reduced to raw materials that we may manipulate. We can give it any meaning we want.
Now which worldview is more likely to take better care of the earth and use biotechnology for human good?
