What is your moral attitude towards nature?

[Austin]

Biocentrism: Your primary locus of moral concern resides in individual life forms and as such you practise life-centered ethics. You believe that all life has moral standing and humans are not inherently superior but are mere members of life's community.



I believe firmly that every organism is self-motivated and in this cycle of raw self interest the universe functions. All notions of interdependence are delusions based on some form of self-interest.


Friends are social buffers to ones ego. I've seen studies where something crazy like 70%+ or so of people after the age of thirty-forty no longer were close friends with almost anyone they knew in highschool/college/under25. This implies what I'm saying. We are organisms in a world in which life functions entirely off self interest. Friends are convenient and even necessary while in school and or young and learning yet in older age as a human progresses through life friends dissipate into ones past. Evidence that friends are largely a social function based entirely on self interest with what friends bring at certain stages in life. When friends are no longer beneficial to a humans self interest, such as when they are 35 and have two kids and a job, then said friends are either discarded or told off.

Here is some information that I believe worthwhile to the question.

Life's survival probability [on Earth]:

without Humans = 0
with Humans = >0
without technology = 0
with technology = >0

Our Planet, along with all others in the universe, exist not only in a spatial habitable zone, but a temporal one as well.

A star systems habitable zone will expand and contract depending on the life-cycle stage of its star. Culture, and therefore consciousness, is the only game changer with regard to the conservation of a star systems life. This revelation increases the importance of whatever sentient life exists in that star system. Man is the only known entity with this ability, which makes him the most important and valuable lifeform in the solar system and possibly in the Universe (although we know the probability of other intelligent life is ~100%, but since we never observed it...).

All life, in this solar system and possibly others, will be dependent on Man for its survival.
