Abstract

This study examines the intersubjective relationship between humans and nature in the context of the ecological crisis caused by illegal mining through a moral-theological interpretation of Genesis 1:28 in the light of Laudato Si’. The research addresses the tendency of anthropocentric hermeneutics that interprets the biblical mandate to “subdue” and “rule” the earth as legitimization for exploitative domination over nature. Using a qualitative descriptive method with theological-hermeneutical and literature study approaches, this research analyzes biblical texts, Church documents, and philosophical reflections on intersubjectivity and ecological ethics. The findings show that Genesis 1:28, when interpreted within the broader narrative of creation and in relation to Genesis 2:15, does not justify destructive exploitation but emphasizes moral responsibility, stewardship, and ecological solidarity. Illegal mining reflects a distorted “I–It” relationship in which nature is reduced to a mere economic object devoid of intrinsic value. In contrast, an intersubjective perspective views humans and nature as part of a dialogical communion of creation grounded in God’s sustaining presence. The study concludes that the ecological crisis caused by illegal mining is fundamentally a relational and spiritual crisis requiring ecological conversion and the restoration of harmonious relationships among humans, nature, and God.
