How to better the world

[Dantius]

Hate, anger, jealousy, and greed are apart of the world as much as love, happiness, peace, and content are. Humans aren’t the only species on the planet capable of those feels.

The human species needs to awake up. We aren’t the center of the universe. We treat everything on earth currently as if there is another option and so far there isn’t. The stars were our forefather’s. The Earth is the mother of our fertility. The Sun was or is what we should worship our life. Somehow we have become ditched from the heavens and focus on ourselves our Ego.

I should have been more clear. Hate, anger, jealousy and greed are indeed part of other lifeforms, I agree. What I should have stated is that, as human beings, we essentially possess dominion over this world. If we removed these negative traits from humanity (theoretically), would you not agree that the huge majority of issues facing us and our planet would be dealt with? Basically, while other creatures may be familiar with these negative traits, our insistance on embracing them does far more harm than they do. In other words, a species as influental and powerful as ours, coupled with these emotions, is too much of a danger to this planet and to ourselves. Like Einstein supposedly said "Technological progress is like an axe in the hands of a pathological criminal."

I also should have added "arrogance" and "ego" to my list of negative human traits. My mistake.

As for everything else you mentioned, I agree wholeheartedly.
