Humans

We humans fight nature right and left, we feel that we can over come the strongest forces ever, and that can only lead to trouble. Humans nolonger move in the natrual way of things, but against the natrual way, without any consideration of what happens to our planet. Natrual selection states that only the fit survive, but we with humans now are capable of fighting that simple statement to the bitter end. . . which is prolonged...by our fighting... anwyay. Humans are able to survive atleast long enough in most industrilized countries to reproduce before they die, thus keeping even bad genes in the gene pool. We humans are like a virus or a parasite, we spread to a region and suck the land dry of any natrual resources and move on to a new place until that place too is dead. (O_O totally got that from the matrix XD) We humans have a death wish, it's our higher intelligence that has us creating Gods and cultures (as far as we know we're the only creatures that do this...although dolphins have now been proven to give themselves names -- now you know)and we fight over these belief systems of ours, killing each other not caring that it is just killing our species. in the end we don't have the intellegence not to make the weapons.

...We're getting better, don't you see? But the fact remains--we humans are the sentient species that has shown the most tendency to deliberatly refuse to communicate with other species and instead destroy them utterly. --Children of the Mind by Orson Scott Card (page 345)
