While you are right that the human species is less significant compared to all spiders, that's not what this thread is about. This thread is concerned with the life of one spider. One human is more important than one spider, which this thread is based upon. One human can acquire power and use it to better the world, save lives of humans, save lives of other species, clean the environment, etc. One spider can do very little in comparison.

Also, Please don't respond to the evolution topic. I want to keep that out of this thread.

that's not what this thread is about at all, this t hread is about discussing what you do when you see a spider.  The popular belief is that it's okay to kill a spider if it scares you (Even if it can't hurt you) since spiders are considered less important than humans.

I don't agree with the belief that people should kill spiders out of fear. But for the people that do believe that, I was just saying that the spider-species-vs-human-species argument doesn't apply because those people are only harming one spider. The people that do believe humans are more important than spiders for the Earth are wrong though.
