    Why would anything human transform into something less like an insect?

    Oh I was just using biological energy transformation as a joke, Like when you die your energy is fed on by plants/insects that grow then the plants are eaten by animals which grown, the animals are then eaten by humans and your inside a human again.

    I wasnt talking about spiritualy transforming like souls or enlightenment or anything.


    peace.

    Why is an insect less ? They are more important in their ecosystem as we are in ours. In many ways we are the lesser creature.

    True, but in a human way of thinking, we always consider ourselves as the top O' the heap.

    I agree and am trying to "see" things differently but because I can just step on a bug and kill it, I fel "superior" to it in many ways.

    That's not superiority, that's arrogance and stupidity. No offense..

    I think humans have the ablity as individuals to take the top slot in the animal kingdom, we also have the ability to take the bottom slot due to our consciousness. we can either use our gifts to nurture and create, or be cruel and destroy. Humans can help out animals that suffer where no other animal would ever step in. we also can just as easily cause that suffering to other life where no other animal would step in.

    peace.

    Any of those actions is a wrong one. We just need to leave nature alone, problem is.. we can't.

    If I see a bird with a broken wing in pain on the floor, I dont think I would be wrong to save its life no matter how I looked at it. I agree we need to leave nature as a whole alone, like stop cutting down forests and polluting the seas and bringing species to a complete end.

    As humans are animals too I would expect any decent human if they see a newborn baby suffering dumped in the trash to try there best to save its life. I dont see helping as wrong even though I am getting involved with nature.


    peace.

    Oh, I've changed my ways over the years and respect nature to a far higher degree than ever before.

    , I think nature deserves respect more than anything. even if people do not appreciate it or care for it sometimes even for there own safety they should respect it.

    peace.

    It's not wrong of you to help it, but helping it survive may cause weak genes to survive in the population.
    But I have to admit that I help too. If only to counter all the wrong we do. Birds are not going to evolve to avoid cars..

    What I really meant is something I see frequently, people breaking up fights between ducks and things like that. They are interfering with their natural behavior.

    You have to right to defend yourself. Getting swatted is a job risk mosquitoes have to live with.
