Man is basically at odds with his enviornment. The existentialists and psychologists, and psychiatrists who subscribe to thier point of view, have described this awareness as alienation and an undifferentiated angst. The Bible clarifies the reason for the despair. God is everywhere, "Thou hast closed me in behind and in front, and hast placed Thy hand upon me. This is a knowledge too wonderful for me, too inaccessible for me to reach. Where can I escape Thy Spirit, or where can I flee from Thy Presence?" (Psalm 139)

If God is everywhere, he is Man's basic Enviornment. If Man's nature and God's nature are opposed, there is friction, which in turn leads to misery. Only one can "release those who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage. (Hebrews 2:15)

This land is condemned because it opposes God, the Judge.
