Title: my heart is crying for this planet...(AKA chizzy\'s tree-hugger thread)
Post by: CHIZZY on June 04, 2002, 08:59:10 PM
no, really...


I watched a National Geographic show on Siberian Tigers... and how russia destroys 10,000,000 acres of habitat each year.. then people who are starving poach them, then they execute the poachers, then they burn the Tiger pelts. then I realized: EVERY SINGLE COUNTRY IN THE WORLD IS WRECKING THE PLANET. i am wrecking the planet right now, consuming electricity. You are wrecking the planet.


Why can\'t we just get along

I wanna crawl into the woods and never come out again.

Well its sad that yes we are destrying out planet.  The way I see it we can only go in one direction.  Theres no way we can just stop destroying it, that would require us losing most of our goods and therefor starving death.  Every species has a population curve.  we are still rising in our curve because our planet has much more resourses to support more humans.  Eventually we will reach our limit and in natural enviroments human populations would begin to decrease, but with our technology we can literally create unnatural enviroments allowing us to sustain our life and over populate our habitat.  We can only hope to keep gaining power and increasing the strength of our technology until one day we can search for a new planet to live on.  I know its far fetched but its the only way for humans to survive

A couple weeks ago there was a thread of CHIZZY gave his star wars stuff and practically saved a kids life.......now this tree hugging stuff?



   This is sadly the second sign of the apocalypse!





 Chizzy whatever you do DO NOT join some hippie cult.......they\'ll cut down a tree that you\'re in and it will fall and you\'ll get crushed!

I for one could care less. Its a fact of life, everything dies at some point. Nothing continues indefinitely..except for time and that is also a matter of opinion.

so in your mind.. murder is justified?

i could go and kill everyone in your family and youd be like

"Oh, pfft, yeah i dont mind, they would have died anyway.. ITS NOT LIKE THEY WERE GOING TO LIVE FOREVER, ROFL!"

No, in that case, I\'d go and F you up, but that is kinda besides the point. We are the superior lifeform vs animals and the likes. So I look at things differently since its the WAY they died. Eventually I would most certainly get over it and be happy they dont have to suffer anything like cancers or tumors one day.

pfft, you\'ve justified your double standard with "we are superior".. that just doesnt fly with me, bucko

in the first case you said you couldnt care less because only time is infinite (and your not sure about that) therefore everything can be killed before its own \'used by date\'.. EXCEPT humans, because we are superior?  blah

[edit]If i was to kill your dog, or your cat, or hell, any other frickin pet you might like.. you would care.  What is the difference between your dog dying, and a tiger dying?  the mere fact that you have an attachment to the dog.  A dog is not a superior being, but you would certainly care if yours died.  Or hell, even a friend of yours.  You wouldnt care about the tiger because YOU DO NOT HAVE AN ATTACHMENT TO THEM.  That is the sole reason, not because of "blah blah, all hings die, who cares they would have died anyone.. Except for humans because we are superior".
[/edit]

i dont care if you dont care about the animals.. why should you care about something that will never affect you and is thousands of miles away.. but please, dont give some bull**** reason  :)

I didnt give you a bull**** reason...and yes, b/c I have an attachment..otherwise since I must clarify EVERYTHING on these boards, I dont care unless I have an attachment.

Selfish..probably so, but im human..o well.

Were gonna probably leave this planet one day because we wrecked it and then wreck the next planet. But we are destroying the planet but it\'s not at an astonishing rate.

As for this "we\'re superior" stuff. I don\'t believe that we are superior or chosen people. We are animals just like all other animals. The only difference is that our brains keep growing so we can figure these things out and making our lives for comfortable and more advances toward technology. We started out on this planet just like everyother animal on this planet but evolved to be smarter and be able to use tools much more efficiently.

Titan, we are superior, otherwise animals would be running things and we would be the hunted. Of course we are all animals, but we are the superior ones, just like in the animal kingdom, you have dominant species.
