What may the stars sometimes think about this here, if they were creatures?
"Mankind, you're not worth it!"?
Or would they just give no damn, acting like "we have a lot of time to pass, your existence is nothing more than a little note in the logbook of our thousands of years lasting course..."?

Oh, come on, remember middle ages when they tortured people and burnt in fire and cases of genocide and wars and humanity is still there, I honestly think people by nature are not evil but caring, I work with people and see it all the time, some a-hole behaviors mainly is the adjustment to the environment. I mean if it is a jungle around and you step on someone not to be stepped on- thus a greater number of asses than it should be.

It's not that.
It's more the question of "How would outsiders regard the ongoings here?". Would they say "humans, you're failures!" or would it be, for example, "oh, damn, we got time! humans, don't take yourself too serious and don't spin around in circles around your own problems! there are more creatures out there than you! if you go down, nobody's gonna cry... the next species is in line. so get your shit together, if you think your race matters! your survival's up to you entirely!".

Yeah, this too. It should not be an individual decision but rather as a society: aimless production and forced consumption. Tons of goods produced and thrown away. All this requires resources and doesn't bring happiness or satisfaction to anyone.

BTW, thank you for your comment about the Iraqi guys. It is so to the point.I never heard about the story like that but it is even better than the Koran. I appreciate that you shared it with me. Really adds a lots to a story.

Well, as I keep it: A little bit misanthropy ain't that bad
