Why do humans feel the need to save every living creature on
the planet? It seems like every week I'm getting an e-mail from someone to
support some cause. What is it in the human psyche that allows us to believe
that we understand Mother Nature and natural selection better than nature
itself. All of these single-minded, non-thinking, and non-critical thinking
people who feel the need to save every living thing on the planet are wrong. If
humans were meant to say if every living creature on the planet there would be
no mother nature and there would be no natural selection. Natural selection is
put into place in order to guarantee that the strongest of all species are left
on the planet. This is a very simple concept and yet as smart as humans think
they are their ego will not allow them to grasp this idea properly.
If we use critical thinking we would be able to deduce that
if every living species and creature on the planet is allowed to live and
natural selection is not allowed to take its course the entire species is weakened.
Now I'm sure there is someone out there thinking that every living creature on
the planet has a right to be here and a right to live. This idea is further
from the truth when we are talking about natural selection. In nature animals
that are not producing offspring that are healthy and strong natural selection
kills them off. In nature strong mothers who bear weak offspring will naturally
kill the weak baby. There are people that believe that this act is inhumane and
I agree 100%. The act of an animal killing its sick and weak or broken
offspring is inhumane but they are not human therefore it is a natural process.
I would go on to argue that it is a necessary absolute natural process.
People who believe they are doing justice by stopping this
natural process of nature are not using critical thinking. They allowing their own
ego to get in the way, and showing a God like arrogance. When humans feel they
can take the place of Mother Nature or the natural processes of the planet it
can only in horribly. Humans do not have the capability because of emotion to
make decisions on whom and what should live and who and what should die on this
planet. It is arrogant to think we know better than Mother Nature. It is
arrogant to think we should interrupt the process of natural selection. There is
a great deal of animals that will kill or discard their offspring if touched by
human hands. If you just use common sense you can come to the conclusion Mother
Nature does not want or need human intervention. This means humans keep your
hands off and ideas of saving every living creature out of Mother Nature’s
business.
Now I hate to see animals kill their helpless little
offspring but that is an emotional response. Our emotion has to be controlled
and sometimes completely eliminated in order to use critical thinking. If we
are able to calm our emotions and keep ego in check the understanding, every
human on the planet should not be alive should also come to mind. This idea may
be very hard to swallow but it is the absolute truth. We have doctors who play
God and want to save every single human on the planet. Humans are only yet
another species of animal therefore natural selection has to also take place in
order for our species to thrive. If we allow every unintelligent person to
breed and have offspring who are a little more unintelligent than their parents,
then in a few generations what will we have? Will we eventually breed ourselves
back into the Stone-Age? Don't let these questions Shake your emotions, sit
back for a second inhale, exhale and then think about the question.
I do not mean that someone should decide who’s smart and
should live and who’s dumb (unintelligent) and should die. This would interfere
with the process of natural selection. What I'm saying is, if we allow natural
selection to take place as it does and should in the animal kingdom we should
also allow the process in humanity. Harsh as it may seem it is the way this
planet was setup to function. If you interrupt the natural function or natural
flow of anything you disrupted the process and the processes become weaker. The
funny thing is human intervention no matter how hard we try can only last for
so long. Over time nature and the processes of natural selection will take
place no matter how hard humans try to intervene. Human intervention and the “we
must save this, we must save that” attitude cannot prevail over the natural
processes of this planet.
As long as humans are under the mindset that they can save
every living creature on the planet and every species on the planet we will
eventually destroy ourselves. Think about this, an animal with a birth defect
in nature by chance is allowed to breed. That birthed defect is carried on to
the next generation, within a couple of generations the group, if they survive
that long will become weaker, not able to hunt, and will even die off. If there
is another stronger group and these two groups meet one group will eventually conquers
the other weaker group. This is the process of natural selection. Natural
selection cannot be avoided, it can only be slowed down but eventually the
process of natural selection continues. Humans trying to interrupt nature and
natural selection can only slow the process to a short time. Eventually the
process will catch up with us and balance will be attained. The planet will
find balance even if it means killing off an enormous amounts of the human
population.
In closing, I would like to say the next time you see
natural selection at work and your emotions compel you to step-in, stop, think,
and then let the process happen. Sometimes humans are just not meant to interfere
in the affairs of planetary balance. Natural selection is not a negative occurrence;
instead it is a positive and necessary occurrence on this planet. Use the brain
which has been allowed to evolve within your body to evoke critical thinking.
Then try to understand how to become more like nature and have less of a God
complex. Allow yourself to understand that these processes are necessary to the
equilibrium of this planet.
We as humans cannot save or kill Mother-Earth but the Mother-Earth can save or kill us and to think any other way is just foolish.
