Isn’t it interesting that the most “intelligent” species on Earth is also the most dangerous? It’s bad enough that a lone person can perpetrate a scene like Las Vegas but humans in general cause all of the hateful, dangerous situations that go on and on forever. We can sit around and believe that we are better than many other creatures on Earth while causing nothing but killing and chaos wherever we go, because we think we are better than all of God’s other creatures. No one wants to face the fact that without humans, the world would not only survived, it would thrive.

Maybe it would be better if we would use the common sense and wisdom that we are capable of, instead of passing along man’s egocentric sense of self.
