Nature does have its on battles. I was referring to mankind’s nature, it’s our nature to learn, so we must pay cash to do so. Every creature on earth is born naturally, we have made up a substitute environment and called it a hospital, we have to pay to give birth. Other mammals have to hunt for food, that’s a battle all animals take part in. Mankind has to work for cash money, or beg on the streets.
Birth, food, learning, a few of nature’s gifts we put a price on. ”We manipulate nature to suit our own selfish needs, for wealth and money, greed...
True. We totally suck. I had this argument with someone once. They kept eulogising about art and architecture and scientific discoveries. And I asked them to point out how that has improved the life on the planet for anyone other than humans and they couldn't do it (actually some species like rats and cockroaches and foxes are thriving in urban environments. Also mould etc) but overall, we are cutting the branch we are sitting on and congratulating ourselves about it.
