Consider that bird on somewhere, New Zealand I believe. Its flightless and endangered. Seems that since it arrived in NZ it lost the concept 'predator'. So when humans arrived and brought rats and cats the birds were slaughtered. The humans had brought the rats and cats on their boats. So whose fault is it? The humans, or the rats and cats? Consider the "plague rats" that brought the black death to Europe. In fact they were only the carrier, the fleas carried the disease, and in fact the fleas carried the bacteria, so was it the fault of the rats, fleas or bacteria? Or was it the fault of the humans that died for not having a resistance, and did their deaths prepare us today against such a disease by strengthening our immune systems? Will the flightless birds of NZ ever once again find a way to survive predators? Will they in the coming epoch survive the rats and cats by taking to the air, or maybe just learning to run really fast?
Is it our fault that they lost the ability to fly? No, we just brought the rats and cats. We are a force of nature, the plague rats of our age, totally innocent and stupid.
Consider the meteor that wiped out the dinosaurs, force of nature yes? So what is the difference between humanity and the meteor?
Regrets.
We are the first force of nature with regrets. We not only blame ourselves for bringing the rats and cats, we regret the loss of life during the black plague. We blame ourselves for everything. Even if we fart we emit greenhouse gasses and could potentially spawn regrets. Even not helping in Africa might cause regrets. News tells us we're to blame and should regret.
What's with all the self blame and regrets?
We are a force of nature!
Right?
