Sorry Nacth, I guess I'm just too religious.
Maybe next time.

I'm not sure most other animals are better than humans. Dogs, of course, are far superior to most every person I've ever met. But they seem to be the exception and not the rule.

Well said.

We've become too powerful - at least in our own minds - and power always corrupts.

Pedantic, but....

The great oxidation event, when bacteria first photosynthesised led to the extinction of many anaerobic species.

When plants first moved onto land, they voraciously consumed the carbon dioxide, nearly bringing their new lifestyle to an abrupt end. They managed to evolve leaves to more efficiently extract carbon dioxide, but species who didn't evolve died.

Humans might evolve or might go extinct, but Earth and life will go on.

Probably for the best.

True. There wouldn't be a gazillion cows if we didn't mass produce them for meat. The earth will get rid of us eventually, probably by another ice age. I'm not sure why everyone is worried about global warming when global cooling (ice ages) have been responsible for the mass extinctions in the past.

An astrophysicist whose philosophical books I enjoy wrote about the difficulties surviving civilization. He theorizes that it might be quite rare for a species to survive its own technological advancement, due to ever-increasing energy demand.

Yes, not only energy demand, but resources.. and all just for our vanity of upgrading completely fine and functional products..

Biblically, we are headed for self-destruction.. so, we need a saviour; we can't save ourselves even if ALL humanity began working together to build a better future.. It had already happened in the distant past - the tower of Babel, and it did not last..
