Mother Nature and her human children

Question from the Internet:

“Would Mother Earth be better and happier without humans ever coming here to disrespect the plants and treat one wild animal over the other?”

We are the children of Mother Earth the same way all other plants and animals are. In fact, it was Nature’s evolution that created us with our inherently self-serving, self-justifying, individualistic, and exploitative nature.

Thus “Mother Earth” — like any other mother — would not be happy with humanity disappearing from the planet. Instead, this “Mother” wants us to become “good children”, and to learn above and against our inherent nature how to become integrated into, adapted to Nature’s laws that sustain the balance and homeostasis life depends on.

And it is for this reason — to consciously become partners with Nature, to consciously, proactively complete our own evolutionary development acquiring Nature-like qualities, behavior on top of our inherently cancer-like program — that we were given birth by “Mother Nature” with our incomplete, raw software.

This is what makes us humans the peak of Natural evolution, the ability for free choice, the ability to consciously change, develop ourselves in order to become similar to Nature by our own efforts.
