Hello

Hello everyone, I'm new here. Before you ask, no I am not 17, it's just my old baseball number. Anyways, how are you all? I look forward to continuing my growth in knowledge and having many discussions with you people so if you have any questions then please ask?

Hello back, I'm pretty new here, the forum is very welcoming of new posters!

I'm no stranger to the 24+ hour stints, but usually drugs and alcohol are involved What's the occasion?

I'll put it another way:

Do humans have dominion over the environment and animals?

What part of human evolution gives us justification for this action? All animals have the ability to adapt and evolve and many (if not all) have the will to survive (depending on what you mean by will), so what makes humanity the authority?

The occasion was just because I just finished school for the semester and never wanted to go to bed.

In that case, humans don't have authority. All animals control their own lives and there is no guidance from a supernatural force.

Although, I'm superior to animals when I have a gun in my hands and there is a yummy animal in front of me.

Sorry. Lol. I had been browsing through a lot of threads and my mind was completely locked into the forum and I wasn't thinking about outside sources (google).

Google is the closest to omniscience as we've come. It is the One True search engine. Thou shalt have no search engines before Google.
