As I spoke at a standup open mic in a Methodist church one evening: God made a mistake allowing the wrong primate branch up the evolutionary trail. The designated group were the Bonobos but man grabbed the tickets out of his hand and ran like hell.
This and another story got me banned from their open mics. I’m so proud of myself.
Your thinking here aligns with First Nations writers who have also urged people to stop thinking it's OK for humans to disappear. It's all One Thing and it doesn't work without us. Also aligned--Dan Quinn's writing, starting with Ishmael, his basic point being that we aren't here to use the earth or even to steward it--we're subject to the same rules that apply to all Life.
Thanks for kickstarting my day with these words from your amazing heart/mind.
