If we see everything as fabrications of humanity then any discussion is effectively pointless. I doubt nature cares about the actions of humans-- the natural order of things is to have living things take what they can. Of course, nature has its limits, physical limitations as well as disasters.
It is through our distorted lens that we see. It may be screwed up, but there's no other alternative.
Now I have a question:
If a post gets deleted in a forum, does it make a sound?

Liked your post, as you said with fewer words what I tried to say with a lot more, and by using a big word "anthropomorphizing."
Archon_Wing scores three points, yes folks, he hit that shot from behind the line! The crowd is on its feet! :lol:
Gratuitous Grammarian Gainsaying follows:
If a post gets deleted from a forum. (To understand the difference, say "taken in" or "removed in" then "taken from" or "removed from" to see the sense of action away. Deleted from the forum infers movement, I think, hence a post goes somewhere else upon deletion. )
Does it make the "moves silently" roll? If so, no sound.
If the percentile dice do not roll a good number, it makes a sound: something like a mucous filled tissue hitting a wastebasket. ;) Yes, I have insomnia tonight. :wacko:
