5. VAR 2: Availability of Raw Materials

Well we might say this is not calculatable, for example we can’t dig the whole ground to calculate the number of crude oil deposited. But we can go around it.

The earth was created by God. And since the sun stands in place, the trees always grow, fish are always in the waters: we might begin to infer the perfect nature of God in contrast with us humans on earth. And thus then say there is enough raw material.

Another angle at which we can look at this variable is that if we as men of earth use the minimum resources necessary for all our projects we would in turn make the earth last longer and our kids have raw materials for themselves also.
