Just another mass extinction to make way for a new dominant species once we’re done. Don’t worry about it. Too late now. Should have fixed it when we were 20 somethings with our great save the whale, ban the bomb, feed the world ideology. But we didn’t. We carried on our own sweet way and have fucked it for our grandchildren. That’s why us empty vessels don’t deserve the respect of today’s youth.

Thank you.

If is our planet... it is up to us to destroy it... that will teach god a lesson, we can do better destruction than he did. Sure he will claim credit.

I wish more people cared about the planet and making more of an effort to save the Earth. Evolution for our species moving to slow to really do anything now.

Good luck with your scenario.

The previous version of the Humanist Manifesto had this:

"...we have opened the door to ecological damage, over-population, dehumanizing institutions, totalitarian repression, and nuclear and bio-chemical disaster. Faced with apocalyptic prophesies and doomsday scenarios, many flee in despair from reason and embrace irrational cults and theologies of withdrawal and retreat."

This, unfortunately, still accurately describes a significant proportion of Americans. And as they continue to embrace conspiracy theories and Russian propaganda the likelihood that they will suddenly wake up and start acting responsibly seems remote. More likely they will cling harder to their guns and religion.
