Well Diane Esther, here is one who agrees with you all the way and one hundred percent.
Reading your post, I realize my thoughts are along the same lines you state, it's just that you have put them into words much better than I could have.
The human animal has either by instinct, or has aquired through time of evolution, the urge to control.
To control not only its brothers and sisters, but all other living beings, plants and the earth itself.
And if anyone or anything does not conform to the will of this human animal, he, or she, or it must and will be changed, or eliminated, or used, purely for one or other selfish reason and want.
I believe, that as long as the human animal rules this planet, there will be no significant changes for any other beings in this world and there will be no civilization in the true sense of the word.
