Humanity deserves to die. What good things did we ever do for this planet?


This is exactly the kind of mentality that groups like PETA and environmentalists are creating, a generation of misanthropy. Even if you were correct in stating that humanity deserves to "die" for not saving the planet you are ignoring the efforts of countless animal rights/protection groups and the work of environmentalists around the world ... I guess human life has no value to you even when it is pushing your agenda? Also, I was not aware that the meaning of human life was to protect the planet and nature. Please enlighten me on how you came to this conclusion (or rather what documentary or television station you absorbed it from without questioning). 

On that subject, if preservation is the objective goal of human life as you accept then can you please tell me why this is so? What possible benefit is there to humanity if humans sacrificed themself for the sake of the planet? Whos is to benefit and for what purpose? The "planet" is a big chunk of mostly inatimate matter. Are you suggesting that human beings should lay down (with no explanation as to why they should do so) their lives to save a giant rock? Besides, isn't your statement a bit self contradictory? Humans arose on this planet and we are just as much a part of the natural world as any tiger. By hindering human progress and even going so far as to say they should all "die" aren't you, in effect, suggesting that we must destroy nature in order to preserve nature?

Another thing that makes me so suspect of bleeding hearts animal rights activists is the fact that they NEVER advocate the preservation of any species that one would define as "ugly." I never see campaigns advocating the preservation of bees (who do far more for us than tigers ever could) or for any other species that one could not put on a postcard. It is always the cute species like whales, dolphins, tigers, ect. ect. Just seems so hypocritical to me.

MMM man wtf are you talking about.... Do u think mankind is superior to everything else on the planet??, we just got lucky we evolved the way we did, but that doesnt mean we are different... we are just animals.. with bigger brains intelligence and at the same time more stupid and cruel..

From what u write your saying that mankind really doesnt need nature to survive, which is complete bullshit we must protect it because we need it, do u think technology will save us from living alone in the planet?, its not like humanity's main goal is to protect the nature, but U KNOW WHY WE HAVE TO PROTECT IT?? its because WE and no other animal has been changing the environment so much, because we have the power to change it, but at the same time we have to use it wisely..

It is stupid to think that humans can just go around doing whatever they want and that everything will just go fine and that time will fix everything.. that is the mentality of a lot of morons... when u say what benefit it brings to us?? is the benefit that we will get to live on this planet longer and better, we are animals part of the ecosystem, i supposed that you have never had a pet(i dont mean exotic ones, as i prefer them to be on the wild) when it just gives you so much not asking for more, and you are saying well we shouldn't take care of it?

Well from your words i think you rather have an xbox 360 or a ps3 over nature( which are the same thing like a stupid rock, if you make an analogy from what u said)
