    Y'know how every animal has a specific job in the ecosystem? Well what is our job?
    How do we fit in?

    The answer is subjective and circular: we exist to define our own existence. You can argue from a theological perspective but it doesn't really get you further than certain aspects of morality.

    Plastic is one of the most amazing human inventions. The Earth wanted it, and so here we are. It's outside the box, and more of a philosophical pun.

    in my eyes, we are here to control, create, and when all else is lost and there is nothing left to do, all that is left is for us to destroy it all and begin again

    Our job is to destroy life because of our sophistication. We are the Sith Lords of the ecosystem. LOL

    I really don't know.

    well to answer your question in the best way I can answer, I remember learning that mankind is a unique type of "animal" because instead of adapting to our situations, environment, we make those things adapt to us. We have killed one two many ecosystems as humans, but we also preserve them as well. Like say every ecosystem is a book. We're the librarians...We mistreat some books sometimes, but we keep them in their places as well.

    Do you know, that every cell in the human body has their death programed in them? They know what kind of cells they are, how many times to spilt into two daughter cells, and when they die. Then, have organelles inside of them that destory them from the inside and depose of the now waste of a dead cell. I feel the human race as the programed death of nature, of earth, and of many lives. Destorying it in the progess.

    If I was a christion now, I'd say to carry out god's orders, but since I'm not, I'd say just to live a life and have fun.
     
  19. We live to entertain the idea of existence. It sees us fall, see how much farther we can go, and in the end, to lose it all because of our self-done upcoming destruction that cannot be inevitable. There's no concept in the natural world about good or evil. There's no right or wrong. We are, in the end, merely organisms with a higher IQ and brain percentage, and we're no different than animals, we are born to die.

    That is all.

    The human's job is to worship God. Tell others about him. And then die and praise him in heaven.
