It makes not any sense.       > eri              There's a clear example in the most catastrophic, stupidest, senseless command       which has ruled Christian behavior and which threatens the survival of the       species. I'm referring to god's command "multiply and conquer." Christians       don't know about the        limits placed by a given habitat on population density. In other words, that       command allows blind expansion and exploitation until we finally end up       killing each other or eating each other to survive.              Nature simply allows for population crash unless some sort of prevention       --population control-- is put in place. Nature is way smarter than god because       god is not smarter than the sheepherders that wrote the bible. What makes       sense to them is that a        larger herd is better than fewer sheep. Nowadays "sheep" stand for happy       consumers. I call them "happy cows," if you so prefer the allegory.               But the endless traffic jams remind us we are too many.                       ----------------------------------------------------------------------------              "Happy cows make the best burgers"               https://docs.google.com/document/d/1nffbCR_uCZ6znjf3gLiFRXSAoLzh       toZ6U4S7Y37aKc/edit?usp=sharing               --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
