Life On Earth Is More

The Idea That We Are "stewards Of The Earth" Is Another Symptom Of Human Arrogance. Imagine Yourself With The Task Of Overseeing Your Body's Physical Processes. Do You Understand The Way It Works Well Enough To Keep All Its Systems In Operation? Can You Make Your Kidneys Function? Can You Control The Removal Of Waste? Are You Conscious Of The Blood Flow Through Your Arteries, Or The Fact That You Are Losing A Hundred Thousand Skin Cells A Minute?

To Romp Along The Connected Rooftops And Fire Escapes Of Chicagos Second City Of Garages Was My Young Lifes Passion.

We Are Unconscious Of Most Of Our Body's Processes, Thank Goodness, Because We'd Screw It Up If We Weren't. The Human Body Is So Complex, With So Many Parts...a System Which Is Far More Complex Than We Can Fully Imagine. The Idea That We Are Consciously Care-taking Such A Large And Mysterious System Is Ludicrous.

Politicians Need A Better Understanding Of Global Ecology. We Need To Be Freed From Our Species-specific Arrogance. No Evidence Exists That We Are Chosen, The Unique Species For Which All The Others Were Made. Nor Are We The Most Important One Because We Are So Numerous, Powerful And Dangerous.

People Say I Am Against Darwin. That Is Ridiculous.
