Human beings are a disease

I find my feeling towards my fellow man is following a similar pattern as my life, a roller coaster, When I see how the world and especially the British rallied round to help the Haiti earthquake appeal I feel so proud, however last week brought me down to earth on news that certain countries are trying to overturn the Whaling ban and the Ivory ban and want to start hunting poor Whales and Elephants again. Will we ever learn? It bring me back to the quote from The Matrix - 'I'd like to share a revelation that I've had during my time here. It came to me when I tried to classify your species. I realized that you're not actually mammals. Every mammal on this planet instinctively develops a natural equilibrium with the surrounding environment, but you humans do not. You move to an area, and you multiply, and multiply, until every natural resource is consumed. The only way you can survive is to spread to another area. There is another organism on this planet that follows the same pattern. A virus. Human beings are a disease, a cancer of this planet, you are a plague, and we are the cure.'

Let us hope common sense prevails and we never return to the barbaric torture of animals now banned and can carry on getting the rest of the acts that should be banned like bullfighting.
