am i alone?

[sunshy]

am i alone in thinking that humans are the most dangerous and vicious species to ever walk the earth? it seems that simply because you are indeed humans, you don't agree with me on that. i want only two things: to be heard out (for once in my life, would someone please just listen?) and for you to think of and post one problem in the world that hasn't been caused by humans. please, please, just tell me, what have humans not screwed up?

[animefreak]

OH! i might know one! um... lemme think, OH! stampeeds... those are caused by animals!

[sharingan29818]

earthquakes, tornadoes, tsunamis, blizzards, and any other kind of natual disaster that exists

[sunshy]

look at it this way: what bad effects do those have? if humans weren't here, those wouldn't BE problems, they'd be nature. but no, we deem them to be problems, simply because they are an inconvenience to us. any others you care to name?

[sharingan29818]

a tsunami and all those thimgs can kill anything, if not humans, the fact that they're nature doesnt mean they cant harm other living things

[sunshy]

yes, but have you ever seen an animal cause a big problem over a hurricane or tsunami or anything? no, you haven't. and you never will. the animals ACCEPT natural disasters and move on. humans, apparantly, lack that ability. nature. think about it. n-a-t-u-r-e. it's natural.

you know what, never mind. no matter how much i argue my point, nobody will ever see it the same way as me.

feel free to lock this thread if you want to.

[sharingan29818]

im not gonna lock it, but just because animals move on, doesnt mean that natural disasters arent an inconvenience to them

[sunshy]

the thing is, natural disasters aren't an inconvenience to animals. animals have a little thing called "instinct". you may have heard of it. this allows animals to know when it is time to leave the area. humans either don't have much instinct or they ignore it, which could be the reason that so many humans end up dead in a situation that could have been avoided. any other problems you care to name?

[sharingan29818]

it is an inconvenience because animals can lose their homes or die, i doubt the alligators down in florida have a chance it get away from a hurricane, thats just one example, animals may have instinct, but humans have common sense, this is why humans are so technologically advanced, animals my have instinct, and that helps them to avoid some things, but they cant think for themselves and always make right choices

[sharingan29818]

you know what? this would be a good topic for a debate for like, a debate team or something

[sunshy]

our school doesn't have a debate team, or i would join it.

animals are much, much smarter than humans. any other disasters that you care to name that aren't like tsunamis or anything??

[sharingan29818]

theyre only smarter when it comes to surviving in the wild, humans HAVE to be smarter then animals because i dont see giraffes writting in brick houses with electricity

[sunshy]

and you don't see dolphins swimming around blowing each other up with bombs either, but humans do. tell me, does that make us smarter?

[sharingan29818]

yes, because even though they made a wrong choice, im pretty sure everyone has, i still dont think dolphins are smart enough to build a bomb, even if animals live a cleaner life, humans are definetly smarter

Actually, dolphins so exhibit a lot of human characteristics. They don't make bombs, but they have been seen to kidnap, so to speak, another dolphin.
