: Your way of thinking is exactly that! It would be deliberately bring human life to extinction. Eg. What humans (yourself) would like to do to most humans they find scary, icky, or inconvenient.

Heh heh heh. You have a point, though your method of illustration was severely flawed. But what I advocate is not genocide, but simply subjecting our species to the same natural laws as all other species. This would not lead to our extinction, but a reduction in numbers from which all life would benefit.

: Now, I'm sure there is at least one person that every single person in the world feels this way about, so if everyone had your mentality, everyone would be gone.....purposely!

You mean you think that I would advocate killing someone because "everybody feels that way"? That is definitely something I wouldn't support. You're back to the human judgement thing again.

: Your way of thinking that snakes are more sacred than people is sick!

Your way of thinking that humans should always be protected from the natural consequences of their actions is dangerous. Your statement is a subjective one of moral values; mine is simply factual. There are serious consequences to removing the checks and balances of nature.
