yeah not to mention environmentalists do say this sixth mass extinction has human origins. one calls it abrupt Anthropogenic climate change in the making and gives us less than 10 years before extinction in his calculations. time will tell I guess. my favorite atheist quote (or just one of them) is by Tracie Harris: "you either have a god who sends child rapists to rape children or you have a god who simply watches and says 'when you're done I'm going to punish you.' if I could stop a person from raping a child, I would. that's the difference between me and your god.'" Another good one is by Hubert Reeves: "Man is the most insane species. He worships an invisible god and slaughters a visible nature."
