It took three billions years
to inhabit the ocean,
It took one hundred years
to become unstocked,
Guess who is the most stupid animal
on the Earth…

somebody would answer, the poets.
We had a discussion in Philosophy 101 on "Are human animals?" I said no but some said yes.

Good question.

Hello Seoul my opinion is that we are both animal and spiritful...It's not a new topic, Descartes, Pascal talked about that : "l veut faire l'ange il fait la bête..."(he wants to be an angel, he become a beast)
We can do the best for sure but when I look around me I think Man can destroy everything inluded himself....I'm a little scared but paradoxaly i keep happy....

have a nice day and thank you for your pertinent comments...

We can see but do not look.  Man's stupidity seems to be evolving.  Thanks for the thoughts

Yann,

People are not stupid.  The natural world is now, and always will be based on survival of the fittest.  Man is part of the natural world.

There are many fish in the ocean.

Thank you all for your comments, I'm not sure the daftest will survive...

Hi Bobby, I think crowds act without thinking, they only move....The world acts like a crowd....And I'm not sure natural ressources will keep on forever...
I'm doubtful

  thanks for commenting...

You made a very big statement with very few words and spot on as well.

Yann, c'est vrai, you've said much with few words.
Upright two-legged creatures are not especially good for Gaia's future.
