Discovery Is Always Rape Of The Natural

You Know, At Times Like This One Feels, Well, Perhaps Extinct Animals Should Be Left Extinct.

The Characteristic Human Trait Is Not Awareness But Conformity, And The Characteristic Result Is Religious Warfare. Other Animals Fight For Territory Or Food; But, Uniquely In The Animal Kingdom, Human Beings Fight For Their 'beliefs.' The Reason Is That Beliefs Guide Behavior, Which Has Evolutionary Importance Among Human Beings. But At A Time When Our Behavior May Well Lead Us To Extinction, I See No Reason To Assume We Have Any Awareness At All. We Are Stubborn, Self-destructive Conformists. Any Other View Of Our Species Is Just A Self-congratulatory Delusion.

Friendships Are Nice. So Is Competence.
