bullshoot.
pollution, biocide and depletion are about NOTHING except frightening the masses.

Sounds about right.

It's obvious that we are destroying the planet; not only for ourselves but for a lot of other life forms. It is sad and pathetic that humans with all their intelligence are still so stupid in some ways. Life would be a lot more diverse without us for sure. It is very depressing that most people are idiotic in this regard and that is why we are all doomed.

well then, stop.

you, personally, since you seem to recognize, just stop.

you'll have to do without some of the domesticating devices that you love most until a better way to realize them could be found, but there won't be any more problems like the ones you describe...

Really the solution would be for people to have one child or less for a few hundred years or more. I don't have children so I am doing my part already. If everyone had zero children we would quickly go extinct. I don't advocate that but it would be better for most other life forms on this planet. The problem is we wiped out most of our predators and life is pretty easy for too many of us. We invented the concept of god so we could justify killing all the other animals. After all, god created us in his image so we are like god. As you are aware, animals don't have souls so it is alright to kill them. "Thou Shall Not Kill" only applies to people and we regularly disregard that commandment anyway.

no, that's not necessary.

you talk about thinking for one's self and all kinda good things, and then you quote the agenda 21 canon verbatum.

it's true that humans don't have any more right to life than other creatures, but then they don't have any more right to life than us. being that i'm human, i'll stick to the human side. self-loathing is NOT the solution. with all the PC self-loathing going on, the situation is getting worse....

still, i see why you support that which might be suicidal, the hyper-scientific dictatorship. it's sooo "our man flint"....

Animals are governed by the laws of nature. We have superseded those natural balances. Like the stock market, short term gain will be detrimental to long term health.

careful, you're looking like a "conservative" who will oppose scientific advances and who must be stopped....

i like people.

Btw there's a reason why people resist falling birthrates, having several children insures an easier retirement, especially in countries where you live a subsistance lifestyle your entire life.

look, there's no evolution of the human.

there has been NO demonstratable evolution of any kind. people are still the same. if the masses are behaving destructively, it's because they are trying to fit the roles of the societies they are born into(like any good herd creature would). putting people into compacted cities is the direct cause of human destruction, both to the human and to the environment. it's not parasitic, it's what happens when ANY animal is treated so. the earth is nowhere NEAR carrying capacity. all of the humans in the world could fit into the state of texas with 1100 square feet per person.

Science has brought some nifty gadgets and other interesting things, many of which i enjoy or have enjoyed, but it has done NOTHING to improve human or any other life on this planet.

it's fashionable to hate humanity today. go ahead and do that suckers!

take your eugenics and stick them. all this call for controlled breeding comes from a frightened elite that fears the masses, hence wars and people like Charles Galton, and Margaret Sanger, total socio and psychopaths. obviously you can follow who you like, but following sickos like that will certainly lead to you and your family(local and extended)'s demise. for human being haters that should be just fine, but please, keep your self loathing to your self.

Rejecting fundamentalist lies doesn't make me narrow minded.

exactly true, it's the rejection of everything else that doesn't fit your point of view that has the ability to make you narrow minded...

"look, there's no evolution of the human. "

What is evolution then?

Is it nececarily a physical change of a spiecies body for the better? was it evolution certain animals started occupying shells? Can evolution include technology?

i liked this one:
"In the broadest sense, evolution is merely change, and so is all-pervasive; galaxies, languages, and political systems all evolve. Biological evolution ... is change in the properties of populations of organisms that transcend the lifetime of a single individual. The ontogeny of an individual is not considered evolution; individual organisms do not evolve. The changes in populations that are considered evolutionary are those that are inheritable via the genetic material from one generation to the next. Biological evolution may be slight or substantial; it embraces everything from slight changes in the proportion of different alleles within a population (such as those determining blood types) to the successive alterations that led from the earliest protoorganism to snails, bees, giraffes, and dandelions."

- Douglas J. Futuyma in Evolutionary Biology, Sinauer Associates 1986

what a religion evolution is....it's an attractive idea even if it's false. do you really think that this is the first or ultimate expression of human technology? btw- the opposite of belief in evolution is NOT fundemental religion. both camps tend to have part of the story and both camps tend towards the ridiculous. both are fundementalism. both are the same, a series of rules, concepts and ideas that are not understood by the adherents....

stardust, what are you talking about? for the umpteenth time, i never said humans should NOT act responsibly. i said that the issues aren't what they seem. perhaps there's data you are not aware of. just because i reject YOUR paranoid ideas( ) doesn't mean that i am completely unreasonable.

ok,
but i have no personal "theory". that's all your misunderstanding of my words.

i spend an inordinate amount of time trying to understand and overcome my own weaknesses. if i find something out, i try to spread the news. isn't that at least an attempt at personal responsibility? there are many fun things that i don't participate in specifically because of the consequences, never the less, i have to live in the real world with all the rest.

none of that makes false realities like "global warming" from human co2, "peak oil", or "overpopulation"(of those pesky "dysgenic" types) a reality.

no amount of scoffing will make the self-proclaimed owners disappear or have less influence on the "herd" of "dead" and/or "profane".

"i spend an inordinate amount of time trying to understand and overcome my own weaknesses. if i find something out, i try to spread the news. isn't that at least an attempt at personal responsibility?"

no, according to what i read thats pretty close to evolution

close but no cigar..

we'll call it that if you like. the english language is far from perfect and accurate in many circumstances, but we need some words to have a discussion, i guess. really, it's just an illusion...


*edit*
ok, i'll accept evolution for the point of argument. if it's "survival of the fittest", then humanity has done nothing wrong in it's dominion over the earth.

humans are not a "parasite" as agent smith would have you believe, they are a function of the earth, an outgrowth, part of life and are as valuable as any species.

sorry for the further ot, let me know when the LHC does anything of importance...

yes, but results for whom? and why? lotta money involved...

and further, how is it that you are so knowledgeable? you like others seem to know a lot about higgs bosons and strange matter, but still you have time for the forum and music! you must be buckaroo bonzai!

Check THIS out... LMFAO.

Found it HERE on the Thunderbolts forum.
