Is man the sole protector of the universe. Do we have the right to promote ourselves as the greater being and the saviour of all those who we feel are lesser then us.
What makes us so special, our brain, our ability to think and reason, or the fact that we can communicate those thoughts in signs which have been given meaning. How do we justify are stand that man should be taken into consideration above all other creatures. How did we come up with the theory that our sufferings are far more greater than a mere fly's.
Evolution as it stands today has only proven that mans touch is cursed. Everything that has been revolutionary has ultimately lead some sort of destruction. We brag about science and technology and how it is the future, all the inventions that come about to make man's life better, everything created in the name of betterment of life, how essential are they, why has our species become so self centered.
If we are so superior and far sighted then why is it that we haven't solved the problems of the world. Infact every year we only seem to create so many new ones. It is a never ending catastrophe. As long as we hold ourselves superior we will only look at ourselves and ignore those who are also very essential for the survival of this earth and nature will belt out its fury in protest.
