About "Humankind - We Built The Weapons"
Humankind and our impact on this Planet
Human-kind[0x1]. "Kind" being a sick joke!!! There is nothing kind about us, we have killed, tortured, eaten, destroyed, murdered, maimed and experimented on almost every fellow species on this planet, and continue to do so. We have put ourselves in charge and built a false throne and crowned our selves king, we now sit in judgement and rule using the laws we have written, and these laws of clause favour us[0x1].they give us the right to continue destroying. If we disagree with these laws, we bang heads with organisations, groups, and intellectuals that will push countless documents and books in front of us proving they are right, and of clause it is all there, we have read it, heard it and seen it all before. But does it make it right? Well my answer to this is, look at what we have done and continue to do[0x1].it is staring us in the face, nature is flexing its muscles and telling us it can't take much more, we have upset the balance and are now in the "catch 22" situation.
Nature must shudder when it sees us coming over the horizon walking along the path, as we walk we break, kill, litter and pollute, when we stop and sit for a bit the circle of destruction gets bigger, when we decide to settle and build a home it is devastating. How many Spiders, Ants, Wasps, and Snakes etc do we simply kill because they have entered our space "garden or home"?
