Genesis, Chapter 9, Verse 7

Verse 7: Be fertile, then, and multiply; abound on earth and subdue it.

No other faith advocates that humans dominate the earth, populate it, even subdue it. Western culture of humans controlling nature grew out of this Hebrew world view.

This world view grew out of Yahweh's covenant with Noah and his family never to drown the world again.
