Too easy, too easy: consider the subject he's impassioned with. Ignoring it, disapproving of it, neither will make the reality less visible and expensive, and it most certainly won't go away of its own accord. It will only grow.
We agree, Rob.
The masses see nothing, understand nothing.
There is no animal that has ever existed,
in all the world's history, that has left
such a devastating footprint of destruction on our planet
as has mankind.
Even from outer space, man's devastating effects can be seen: lights, structures, roadways, etc.
This has never happened with any other life form, so affecting our world as to see the affects from space.
Philosophically, the surface of the earth can be likened to the skin of a dog.
When a dog has a healthy coat, its fur shines and flourishes.
By contrast, when
unhealthy (or afflicted by mange), the hair on a dog disappears and is replaced by
scabbing,
crust,
exema, etc.
The same is true with our planet: when healthy, grasses, trees, and rivers flourish.
By contrast, when unhealthy, trees and grasses die, water dissipates, and "bald patches" prevail.
What most people are too blind to see is,
our buildings, concrete structures, roadways, etc. are crust-like pustules to the face of this earth, proof of its unhealthy state.
Our very activity on the earth's surface is like the activity of mange-mites on the hide of a dog: festering, erupting, infecting.
The blind can't see it as such, same as mange-mites can't see what they're doing to the dog, but that is
exactly the truth of the matter of what we're doing to our planet.
People look at a city-scape of New York and think, "Progress."
I look at a city-scape of New York and think,
"Every bit of Nature, destroyed."Of course, and again, the blind can't see it as such,
being the living mange-mites creating this condition, but MANY top scientists will tell you that
the earth is a sick, slowly-dying organism, and human overpopulation (infection) is the cause of it.
But, as a great philosopher once said,
"These are delicate, distant matters ... they should not be reached-for by sheeps' hooves."Famed BBC naturalist, Sire David Attenborough,
agrees.
All anyone has to do is Google "Human Overpopulation," and
again and
again they can find scientists warning of this peril.
I know I said I wouldn't post on the subject again, but felt the need to make a final comment.
The prophesies warn of
"The Seven Plagues," yet the great irony is that neither locusts, mice, nor any other vermin are the true plagues of this planet; in point of fact
MAN is The Plague of this Earth==the deadliest, most destructive, hardest-to-eradicate
pestilence to ever to infect our world.
Every other life form on earth is dwindling, while mankind is increasing. But, here again, we don't see it as such.
And "why" is this happening?
Because we keep alive the UNfit ... we create programs to "keep the unworthy alive," to "provide for their needs," rather than
allowing them to pass on, which would happen in Nature, and through this artificial sustenance we thereby
ensure the unfit will not only survive
but propagate more of the same.
This practice is contrary to nature.
It is not life-affirming;
it is life-destroying ... because it saps all of the world's resources in order to sustain the volume of needs thereby created.
I could go on forever, but (for the most part) I realize that the "pearls and swine" maxim will inevitably apply.
