If your argument is that our species is better than any other, then go to the south pole, take off all your cloths and try to survive in sub zero temps.
NO, I am NOT recommending that. Just saying HUMANS ARE NOT SPECIAL.
I am sorry it bothers you that the prospect of being finite frightens you, but it should not. Being finite and not existing forever SHOULD NOT scare you. I am not saying kill yourself, not one bit. I am saying nobody knew who I was, or you were 4 billion years ago.
I live my life fine without a sky hero. I feel love, I have ups and downs in my life. I simply DO NOT chalk any of that up to old books of mythology.
I still want to live as long as possible. I still miss my late mother. I am looking forward to visiting my long time friend in Australia next month. BUT NO, I do not think I am special to this planet, nor to I think I will be remembered 5 billion years from now. All I can do RIGHT NOW, is enjoy the time I have now. I am fine with that.
