Religion Quotes in The Poisonwood Bible

Dominion isn't just an addictive card game. In Genesis, it seems to mean something like "ruling" but also "being responsible for taking care of." (That's a nod to all of you lovely Tree Huggers out there.) Of course, Nathan Price seems to ignore the "taking care of" part and focuses on the ruling instead.

Sure—except by "cultivate," maybe God didn't mean "impose your own will upon." Nathan seems to conveniently forget the parts of the Bible that don't allow him to be a total control freak.
