Is Man A Pest?

By afroditafox4u September 23, 2020 24 answers Last updated September 23, 2020

Hello. A 17-year-old girl writes to you. Ever since I was 10 years old, I have been convinced of the meaningless existence of people. We use the earth's resources, breed like rabbits (worldwide), pollute, cut down forests, build up the last wild places, chase animals away from them or kill them. We are parasitizing over the planet. Like leeches, we try to drink the last drop of blood from her veins. Now the problem is big, and what will happen in years to come. Things are getting worse. What do you think? What is the meaning of us, where is our place in the ecosystem, what is the meaning of our "great" civilization? Are we a mistake of nature, because I am becoming more and more convinced of that? What is your opinion on the matter?

   Dear God ... if that's what most people think, it's a shame. How are we so wrong of nature? I do not know if you are familiar, but there are many people who have contributed greatly to the development of civilization. It is true that forests are being cut down and animals being killed, but there are conservationists and perhaps other people who care about nature conservation. This is not the case in Bulgaria, but other countries value it and there are strict sanctions if it is polluted or destroyed in any way. I do not agree that man is a pest.

   That you do not contribute anything, I do not argue. It is obvious that you are not at the necessary level to even think about such a question and I do not mean your age. As for the exploitation of the planet, the fault of the people is mainly in the patience and generosity with which they leave a caste to do everything in the name of profits - profit.

   If you've seen The Matrix, Agent Smith tells Morpheus that the human species doesn't fit anywhere, that wherever it goes, it pollutes until it's left clean, and goes to the next place where viruses behave. I think that's true if we look globally at what our planet looked like. It is no coincidence that they are looking for another planet to relocate people to colonize it. All the climate protection programs, our rights and whatever you can think of that look good are actually blindfolds. The truth is that we live in a world of capitalism, the system is not working, the resources, if one source of energy runs out, will be replaced by another, with a third, and eventually they will run out. We are consumers because we are evolving on a material level, because greed for 'more' is embedded in lower human nature.

   I have found my vocation and meaning - I create beauty for people, I do woodcarving, gardens, flowers, garden decoration, if someone asks me to make something for him, I do it not so much for money, but as a hobby with the idea of ​​making a man's day. nice. It supports me and gives me strength for each day and meaning for the future. I will be happy if you find your calling too - just listen to your heart and the whisper of your soul. They will not let you down. It deceives the eternally dissatisfied mind and ego and the enslavement of the SHEPHERD.

   The girl asks what is the meaning of our existence as a species - for other animal species, for nature - do they gain something from the fact that we inhabit the earth or are we parasites that use, pollute, exhaust, cut down, kill to live? Her conclusions are completely justified.

   Meaning? There's no point. What is the meaning of the rabbits we breed, what is the meaning of the dinosaurs, the Sun and so on. You still think that everything has come together so that it is you (or your human race) that appears, but rather everything is in a state of chaos, which is temporarily organized in one way or another. We are the fruit of chance, it makes no sense. If you can't stand it, choose a religion for consolation, that's why they're made up.

   Yes, humanity is the biggest mistake! Greed and hunger for money kill us. He who invented money has doomed the whole human race to its own stupidity! I know you're going to put downsides to my comment, but deep down you know it's true. Everyone is plundering a handful of energy resources, multiplying without borders, polluting with devastating consequences without thinking about the future. And the future is actually you, not you and anyone else. Your children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren - they will inherit what you leave or more precisely do NOT leave. When I was little in school we played the following game: Gather children in 4 groups. They pour candy on the floor. The first group of children bursts - everyone collects and fills their pockets. They release the second group of children and they collect as much as they can carry. They release the third group - for them there are almost none, some children take, for others there are none. They release the fourth, and the children ask: What are we doing here? And why didn't you leave us? It is the same with the resources of the earth. It used to be abundant, but since humanity began to develop technologically and materially, we are going badly, very badly. Free energy has long been invented - the sun, wind, water ... these are inexhaustible resources, harmless and free. But because no one can sell them and that's why they don't let us use them. Because if we all use the sun for electricity, the wind feeds an entire city, and our cars use the designs of the deliberately killed Tesla, no one can buy them electricity, oil, oil and even firewood. But where are we in Bulgaria? !! You pretend to be very worried, but then you light the wood stove and burn coal. You ride cars thrown out of clean-up Germany, which spew lead and a pile of dust particles. And then the winter on the news: Air pollution 1000 times above normal. Breathe, people, what you have produced. This generation will leave sick of its own stupidity, but it is not known for the next what will remain and whether it will remain at all ... From one 22 years. pest

   You are just still young and your mind is easily influenced by satanic ideologies. Yes satanic, because the fact that people are pests is just a demonic doctrine propagated by the New Age religion. This ideology stems from the false statement that man arose by chance. The truth is that man was created in the image and likeness of God. However, this truth is an insurmountable obstacle to satanic doctrines and demons who want to destroy people, so they confuse them with fictional doctrines and make them feel hatred for their peers.

   Nature does not do random things. When a lion eats a deer, no one says that the lion is a pest, but they say that this is the nature of the lion. In the same way, human nature is like that and so it was created by nature, evolution, God, if you will. In reality, man is the only organism on the planet that can ensure the long-term survival of life by inhabiting other planets. In my opinion, that's why nature has created such an intelligent species. The goal is to be able to transfer life to other planets. Because eventually all of this will end sooner or later, whether man destroys it first or is swallowed by the sun a few million years later, or a meteorite falls and becomes like a dinosaur, but with a lifetime. . These time intervals are negligible in terms of the age of the universe. By the way, if the next day there is a threat of a meteorite falling, which will destroy all life on the planet, people will be the only ones who will know more or less what we can do to avoid it and save lives. I agree that many things can be done to reduce our negative impact on the planet (for example, to limit disposable plastics, which I see and do personally). But that doesn't mean we're a pest.

   Number 9, that man is a pest is the thesis of those you mention in your comment. Even officially statistically, over 80% of resources are in the hands of less than 1%. As early as the beginning of the 20th century, rich and wealthy entrepreneurs and bankers funded research on humans. One of the first professors to become famous during these studies, a person taking an active part in them, said: "give me a baby and I will make it the person I want." The "conclusion" he came to was that people were controlled mainly by fear, not by love as many had thought in the field at the time. I start from afar because the topic is particularly deep. This with people are pests is again, looking for an easy explanation for complex processes. Here is a little proof of my words: "At the beginning of the Cold War - 1947. - Alan Foster Dulles - the first head of the CIA states: ... "We will throw all the gold of the United States, all the power of the United States: 1. To deceive and fool the people of the socialist world. 2. We will unnoticed replace human values ​​with false ones ... 3. We will find like-minded people in these countries and Russia. 4. We will develop a grandiose decomposition work, we will extract the social essence of literature. 5. We will encourage authors who instill in man a cult of sex, violence, sadism, betrayal - that is, immorality. 6. Writings are needed that ridicule naturalness and integrity as archaic obsolescence. 7. Simplicity, impudence, lies and deception, drunkenness and drug addiction, animal fear among people, shamelessness, slander and many other vices embedded in man must be moved. 8. In this way we will shake generation after generation - we will cause erosion and corruption of the youth. 9. We will create a person with a consumptive psyche of an elementary user. 10. We will do all this under the motto: PROTECT HUMAN RIGHTS AND CIVIL FREEDOMS "... ... And after 1980, President Reagan said:" I WILL LEARN THE PEOPLES OF EASTERN EUROPE WHAT HUNGER IS! " ... In 1992, US Secretary of State James Baker told their congress: "We spent over $ 30 trillion to win the Cold War against the Soviet Union and its satellites to cause a material and spiritual collapse." Looking at the "modern" primitives in Bulgaria and their representatives on the site, they have succeeded.

   Ha-ha ... Well, I'll cheer you up with one fact - life will disappear, sooner or later. That is, such a hated civilization will die (a completely different topic is why). I hope you are already happy ... But seriously, don't you really see that every living thing reproduces and uses the surrounding resources ...?

   Yes, we are the most terrible pests. The example of the lion was not appropriate, because the lion kills to feed and will not leave a ton of garbage behind. Man is a really nasty virus. He does not think of anyone but himself and those close to him. It continues to multiply, even though poor Earth is already exhausted from us. Contaminates, kills, mocks lower species. Supreme egoist. The sooner the planet gets rid of us, the better.

   of 11: I hope this near-death experience (NDE) gives some perspectives to some people (in English): https: // www. near-death. com / experiences / exceptional / mellen-thomas-benedict. html Man had the same beliefs ("humans are cancer for the planet", "humans are a virus", "man is the most terrible pest" and so on), died of a brain tumor when he went through an experience that changed his worldview, and cures the tumor. By the way, the forests on the planet have increased thanks to human intervention.   People are also transforming many deserts into more fertile soils (seen in the Middle East mainly, especially Israel and Jordan).

   11- Can you provide a representative sample with at least 1 million cases like this? Because one or two people out of 7 billion are an exception, which we are not discussing here. It spends more on weapons than on health and the environment; there are still hundreds of wars around the world where people are killing people for dubious political and economic interests; people blow people up because of dubious beliefs; and to this day there is slavery, trafficking in women and children and what not. And you will tell us that if you see, because someone has transformed deserts into fertile soils, he is very noble. They are transformed into soils to be consumed, not by good intentions. Just as it is not useful to cut down forests, it is not useful to transform deserts into soils. Both are unnatural. The planet needs deserts, forests, water, insects, from rodents, etc. Who are we to decide what should become what and what should be destroyed? We should respect nature and not interfere, because we are 1000 times lower and many things are not clear to us. Unfortunately, I have to include myself in the number of consumers. But at least I realize it and try not to help so much if I don't help.

   The purpose of life, darling, is enlightenment and spiritual maturation. But as can be seen from most posts, people's thinking is extremely material, simply because people's spirituality is deliberately crippled (which No15 is somewhat right about). That is, to be a saint and thus complete your miserable existence on this earth is more and more difficult, because today's man does not see beyond his nose. Humans have become animals and are no different from them, so they find nothing more meaningful than to reproduce and survive. When I say spiritually, however, I do not mean religion. Being religious and believing are two very different things. Religion is usually the identity of the same people who reproduce and survive. However, spirituality can be measured by art, belief in a higher power, love and compassion for one's neighbor ... But this does not happen by force. In order to reach this level, one must burn oneself from the material and see how meaningless it is. In the past, for example, people enjoyed beads just as much as the muzzles of cell phones in the 1990s, just as much as some BMW 4 people now. Everything is transient, and the point is in understanding transience.

   I will expand on the topic a bit. Have you ever wondered where we all came from, where the universe and matter itself came from? How and why do we hang in infinity, stepping on a speck? These questions seem too philosophical and abstract, but they are not for me. The only logical explanation I see that matter is a kind of anomaly in an infinite ocean of energy, which we can conditionally call God, Source, etc. Why he decided to do it and whether there are other types of similar anomalies - history is silent. Now directly to the topic - in my opinion, the material universe itself was created as a kind of "playground" where people (whether they are of our species or whatever alien species you can think of there) can "play" and explore the reality around them ... and thus, through us, God himself examines his creation. Creation in itself is neither good nor bad, it is simple. We humans give it meaning according to our actions and thoughts. I am convinced that every particle of matter is a living being, the Earth itself is a living being. We live on it, along with an infinite number of other living organisms, and for now it is our hospitable home in this universe. Even if we destroy ourselves. it will recover and continue to be home to other species. She's done it millions of times before. It will continue to be alive and without any species on its surface. And what will happen to us? Well, it's up to us. In general, we will not miss anyone. Life will continue to exist with or without us on our land and on an infinite number of other lands. that every particle of matter is a living being, the Earth itself is a living being.

   from 19/11 to 20: It's like telling a beaver not to build dams on rivers, because "who is a beaver to decide which river to have a dam on? He must be able to look after the young without building dams and change the natural balance! "As I said, human nature is like that and so we are created by NATURE ITSELF. There is nothing that can happen outside of nature. Just as nature creates viruses that kill millions (this is natural), so man creates vaccines to protect against these viruses (this is also natural). Nature itself has prompted man to his state today, in which he can change and cultivate the planet. I don't know if you know that people, for example, run rabies vaccines even in the woods to protect wildlife from the virus. Now you're going to say, "Well, they do, for his own sake - lest some wild animal become infected with rabies and then bite their cattle! "Well, of course. Everything is done out of self-interest. Even altruists show their altruism out of self-interest, simply for (often) more unconscious reasons.

   From the author: I read a lot of opinions that have nothing to do with the topic. I do not want to seek faith in aliens, mythical forces and beings, nor do I want to seek the beauty of the day. The lion kills the antelope to feed, attacking only old and sick animals and thus protecting against epidemics and diseases. We kill to feed our EGO, to show how great we are, to make leather coats and trophies! It is not useful to cut down the Canadian and Russian taiga, the equatorial forests, it is not useful to plant pine trees in the beech forest, to plant deserts with pumpkins. In this way we kill the plants and animals that live there. It's useful, I'm sure? !! Tell it to animals that are dying. All campaigns are just to blur our eyes with shit. Beavers make dams to prevent spills and do not disturb anyone, and the same does not apply to us !!! With these viruses, the Earth is trying to kill us, but we are a stubborn virus. We also harm livestock. The reefs are dying, the animals are disappearing, the plants are dying, therefore our end is near !!!
