Quote:(When I say "animals", I mean the ones NOT in the category as "homo sapiens", okay?)
NO it's not OK
Humans are ONLY animals in the broadest sense of the word. We are not special in any way,except to ourselves.
Neither our sentience nor [self defined] intelligence so far seems to have any long term survival advantage when compared with animals which are really quite stupid and unaware.EG crocodiles and sharks which are among the oldest and most successful species on the planet.
Hopefully, humans will be extinct withing a few centuries. This will be a good thing for the remaining species.Life,which is independent of sentience and intelligence will survive.
From what I can see,we don't seem to have done any permanent damage [so far] to the planet.
