If you insist on that definition of the word, I don't really care. I
am married, but if it became generally accepted that my marriage is
also not real according to some criteria, I wouldn't care either. I
don't see how that would affect my life.
I only care that people that love each other and want to live
together can do so without being bullied by society or the state,
and are not discriminated against in taxation, inheritance,
adoption, etc.
neither climate can be changed by little ants like us,
Of course it can. We have nuclear weapons.
We have already done so, using little more than cars, planes, ships,
trains and power stations.
In fact we have already done so using nothing more than muscle
power. Look at how many areas -- including the fertile crescent --
have been desertified by human presence. We probably began affecting
climate when we discovered fire and began large scale burns to clear
brush and move game animals towards hunters, by increasing the area
of grasslands. One should not forget that the salt pan deserts of
southern Iraq were once the blooming agricultural heartland of
ancient Sumeria. And that northern Iraq and much of the entire
region was covered by ancient cedar forests.
Humans have been altering the face of the earth on a large scale
since at least as far back as the beginning of agriculture and I
suspect even much earlier than that when we learned to control fire
and began to use it to shape our environment.
The cyanobacteria changed to planet the most, and rejected the most
toxic molecules ever: the oxygen molecules O2. It killed all life
species on the planet at that time (according to some), except those
developing respiration to burn the O2 into CO2, and build food and
candy instead.
God created the plants, but then he realized he needs the animals to
treat the plants pollution.
We multiply quickly, and have to be cautious and responsible not
breaking too many cycles in nature, and should pollute the less
possible, and for this we have to find ways to avoid private interest
interference with politics. About this, the signs are not currently
encouraging.
