This is a really interesting question and it will be fascinating to read the response of other RG members.
I feel that because the human race has the greater ability to make changes to the world, I fear that we - as humans - also have more ability to make negative changes to our world. Global warming, radioactive contamination and other types of pollution sprung to mind immediately, not to mention the animals and plants that we have caused to become extinct.
Our life is god s' given gift we have to nourish , & pass it to our life line in a very useful ,noble, & worthy manner so that we may offer a happy environment to our family in our working mode we may prove to be useful with helping hand to our associated group. With our life our mode may prove to be indirect way offering helping guideline to our social members.
With this some time back i have placed my publication under the captioned'' LIFE'' where i have expressed my views on LIFE which i feel a journey for me . I submit herewith the same only for the purpose of expressing my views only nothing more .
In reply to Prof Aghakhani; I agree with your reply to my response. From our perspective, we have the ability to make greater effect to the world as we see it. But I believe that all life forms have a niche and play a part to the environment of the world as a whole, to a greater and lesser extent.
I also suspect that only humans have this higher level of thinking as so beautifully expressed by Rohit. But will we ever know whether some other forms of higher life also have comparable (?) attitudes within their own species?
is human important really or his/ her importance is as like as a stone or plant or animal for the world and she/ he only thinks that is important in the world!
Humans are more important that stones, etc, because with the gift of reasoning we are able to think about the meaning of life. However, the world does not like the humans to keep fighting, pollute the planet and destroy plants and animals. All forms of life are equally important and play a vital role in the overall balance of natural forces.
Life is a continuum it was there before humans and it will be there after humans....
humans are only a connecting link in the evolution of life on Earth.
because of our ability ...we are able to control the world around us to some extent.
How do we know whether the world minds humans or not...as there is no other species in the world which can express in our language and say wether we are good or bad.
All the plant life and animal life would definitely say no to us...who miss use most of the natural resources and disturb the whole ecosystem of the world.
may be in future some more evolved species than us may arise and put full stop to our way of living.
