--[[User:Joy Marie|Joy Marie]] 07:24, 16 January 2009 (UTC)- -As humans, we are a higher evolved species than the rest but eventually we will over populate this world. We will be reduced to mere savages fighting and killing over water, food and other necesities that will become exhausted as in Ms. Butler's books. It is important that explore other worlds for living or we will become nothing other than, "smooth-skin dinosaurs--Here today, gone tomorrow, our bones mixed with the bones and ashes of our cities..." (Parable of the Sower Ch18) But while we are still here, we must take care of this world because all life is precious. Every life, every animal, every living being sould not be taken for granted. Not caring for the less evolved is harming our own species; it makes it easy to dehumanize others and feel superior to them, to take advantage of them.
Lets continue this discussion because it is important to ask questions and to learn from one another and teach each other.
