s1eep Posted June 2, 2015 Posted June 2, 2015 (edited) I argue that everyone 'should' respect the planet, and thus everyone has a compound respect or faith; one respects his mother because she gave birth to one, and one is brought up by her bosom, at her side. Whether or not you accept this fact, the Earth played a crucial role in your birth; and you grew up by it's side, or at least of it's material. Without editing the universe, Earth is vital to our existence; it's the pursuit of knowledge for self or selves-empowerment that draws us further away, seemingly ability-wise, from the planet, but this is just in thought, it's barely put in practice. Sure we can visit mars but we can expect hundreds of years until we create colonies with good varied genetics and survivability. Our editing of the original universe, in thought, or literally on Earth and nearby space, stars and planets, is prone to mistakes and critical failure. Earth's chances were edged toward healthy progression, in it's original state. Humans would not have become civilized, clothes-wearing and talking ( that doesn't mean that we wouldn't have style or communication in the unedited world ) creatures, and evolution would have not stopped and digressed from that point - I'm thinking something like the film Avatar for the future of Earth, not balding heads and rich or academically successful life on Mars. To conclude, it's not there at the moment, everyone doesn't have a compound respect, but I've gave two reasons why we 'should' respect the planet. It's good for you, and it's stupid for us not to respect Earth. You are evil from the perspective of no God, but humanity. And nature is mostly good, especially when you're the top of the food chain. I will accept debate but I would prefer discussion, and on top of this I'm ignoring low-effort quasi-intelligent and perverse "look how I'm taking your serious-tone as a joke and acting stupid in the midst of your passions - you're easily fooled!", responses.
