Oh, I agree with much of what you say. I'm just not convinced that we as a society are valuable in any way that justifies our continued propagation.

Most of what I wrote was to qualify what I'm saying so that it's understood. I expect downvotes because I'm basically calling humans as a species, not worthy of existing. Some people who are very ego driven proud homo erectus, can definitely take offense to my statements; so down votes are generally expected.

I suppose that some downvotes would also come from those that believe that humans were created by God, under that pretense, I would be insulting their God by saying we're not worthy of existing. So yeah.

Between those two, I'm unmoved by the fact that some decided to down vote.

Well ours is the only species which can probe and understand why there is something instead of nothing. There may not be any intrinsic value in anything, but the act of discovery is meaningful.
