Rrhain,are you from the 17th century?
Its because you probably didnt heard about Quantum mechanics neither about Quantum field theory.You are yet a Newtonian.
Go read about it.
​
This from the guy who thinks brains are quantum computers? Maybe you'd like to bone up on science before you start throwing around science-sounding buzzwords. After all I didn't see any discussion of physics in Rrhain's post. Maybe you'd like to point out his Newtonianism?

No rational engineer puts asthetics over safety. That's bad design.

We use the other species as labour, we keep them as pets, we use their produce, we keep them in cages for entertainment or study, and if another species should threaten us, we wipe it out.

Bah. It's the simplest thing in the world to destroy.

Now, show me that humans have the capability to save the planet, particularly from ourselves, and you'll have my attention in an argument about human superiority.
