Evil shouldn't be confused with Stupidity.

Humanity is by and large Stupid. How else would you explain humanity's predilection for wrecking the world even though they know it's wrong to do so?

Deadshane1-we have no ability to destroy the planet. To paraphrase the immortal George Carlin "the Earth will be just fine. We're the ones who are ed."

So we're just a 'little' evil. Not as evil as roaches (who are downright demonic in their nature), but evil nontheless.

No by your definition there can be no good life. How is life going to help dirt? Inversely, but its very nature there can be no bad life. Life can't hurt dirt either. In the end, its just dirt.

Dirt does not want or NEED humanities help. It's also tired of growing turnips for us. How do I know this? Dirt told me, right after saying how evil it thinks we are.

I ate your dirt... now who are you going to talk to!
