Keith,
I see your point, but you did you know that 99 percent of the original species on earth have gone extinct? And many before we even showed up? Not saying it's O.K. or inevitable, but it's not a new thing.
We have an overblown belief that we are here to stay anyway. At some point there will be another ice age (unless global warming prevents that) and there will be a mile thick sheet of ice where I am sitting here typing this at there was about 10,000 years ago. And then there is always the potential of an asteriod strike or comet that could make us go extinct.
Did you know that scientists have determined via our DNA that man almost went extinct about 70,000 years ago? Our numbers dwindled drastically due to some cathostrophic event.
