### - lol hg, what an idiotic analogy, your ignorance is truly amazing!

or perhaps you think that the 'world' was 'asking for it' too LOL :)

but i think everyone deserves at least one chance so i'll give you a clue just to
see what (if anything) you can make of it ok? let's see just how smart you
'really' are...

i.e. it's definitely not the 'chimpanzees' that have been carelessly damaging the
planet you know...

get it yet pal? (sheesh ;-)

But since I am not the one damning the human race to extinction for
its sins, I'm not setting myself up as its judge. That's your
audacious prancing. It would be humble to express concern for the
possible results of human folly, but it is decidedly not humble to
declare them doomed because they've sinned against whatever it is you
consider to be "the rules of nature".

### - back-up a bit tom, because i 'was' in fact expressing my concerns for the
'likely' results of our human 'stupidity' (folly is too apologetic a description
as far as i'm concerned) and wilful blindness, the way i went about doing so being
just my way of expressing it, which incidentally also included humour,
self-deprecation, plus even an Einstein quote (which everyone deliberately ignored
in-favour of their own interpretation) along the 'exact' same lines/observation in
order to qualify it as not 'just' being the ravings of some malcontent, and one
could never accuse uncle albert of that)

so what i suggest i that you read it again, only 'this time' please leave
'yourself' out of it and then perhaps a little clarity on your part will be gained
instead of the pile of personalised tripe you've been trotting-out so far under
the heading of intelligent comments in this regard...




You say people would survive
if only they'd "wake up" and start acting the way you want them to
act. The only reason you can think of as to why they act differently
from you are that they are not "awake", whereas *you* are.

### - don't you read properly? i never said they'd 'survive', i only said they
could at least do something about for 'themselves' and that in order to be 'able'
to do that one perforce has to be 'awake' to what's really going down on this
lovely little blue and green planet of ours that we're ruining because we choose
denial (exactly as you are currently doing and defending) and 'not' to be awake to
the rather obvious consequences of our actions...





The
serious possibility that you have completely misread the world
situation and that it's nowhere near as simplistic as you think it is
has not even occurred to you. Nope, all you have to say is that if
people don't act the way you think they should, they all deserve to
die.

### - of course it's occurred to me, years ago in fact... the 'simple' answer of
course being that humans are directly responsible, what's suspicious being those
who would rather 'complicate' everything to the nth degree merely so they can
'delay' actually doing something about, something i would contend is the direct
result of living in such denial in the first place! :)




That is the very epitome of a self-righteous belief in your own
superiority. You can play "I'm rubber and you're glue" all you want,
but it changes nothing. The fact remains that you're prancing around
pretending to be superior.

### - 'observers/reporters' make comments from a completely 'non-personal' pov
else they be accused of having some sort of personal vested interest in the
possible outcome, and seeing as we've more than likely already fucked it all up
there's no personal interest 'left' to foster... this being something you don't
seem to grasp precisely because you in fact still 'do' have such a vested
interest, else why rise to the defence of the indefensible instead of outright
condemning it? (big question huh :)

Tom declares...

You want everyone in the world to act a certain way and you are so
angry that they are not doing what you want that you are quitely
literally hoping they'll all die, even if that means you'll die too.
That sort of attitude is what leads people to shoot up schools and
malls until the police finally put them out of their misery.
You're not presenting a rational argument, just venting an enraged
scream.

### - projecting yourself again onto others tom?

i must say it's all very revealing about you and the way you see things 'coz
that's not at 'all' what HE was saying/suggesting ;-)

e.g. you just stated...

"It's just blind hatred and frustration over not getting your own way. You're not
presenting a rational argument, just venting an enraged scream." --tom

well i'm tellin' ya that's definitely not 'him', so make a wild guess as to whom
that leaves :)
