if all insects on Earth disappeared

[Spiderman]

Jonas Salk once said

“if all insects on Earth disappeared, within 50 years all life on
Earth would end. If all human beings disappeared from the Earth,
within 50 years all forms of life would flourish.”

What does that say about the human race, in your opinion?

^^^ To me if the human race was going to be such a problem, we never would have been created in the first place.

God bless you always!!!

P.S. Also, what do most insects actually bring to our picture anyways? Earlier this year, I was eaten alive by bedbugs, so I wouldn't miss them if they were to disappear!

If I were a bug, I'd feel happy.

If I were a typical human, I'd buy more cans of RAID.

But the only problem is, I love butterflies. Their beauty keeps me from buying any bug fixes, and feeding the birds with feeders full of stuff birdies love, I have natural protection from mosquitoes, etc., due to their voluntary compliance with the steady meal deal on my farm for them all.

So be careful what you wish for

This assumes that I agree with the premise.

I never said that I wish that they would disappear. I just said that I wouldn't miss certain ones if they did disappear because of what they do to a person.

God bless you always!!!

Not much. But it says a lot about Jonas.

Insects are ok. I don't mind them. There are some insects that we absolutely need to have. For instance if it were not for bees, we wouldn't have honey.

 

[Luddly Neddite]

Its true that we need insects.
They don't need us.

We're wiping them out. Whether its needless and useless spraying of our homes, letting Monsanto weaken our natural system or killing off bees, little by little, we're killing ourselves by killing them.

50 years? LOL more like 2 years

If all the insects on earth disappeared, then Capitol Hill would be devoid of life.

There is nothing to disagree with. Without them life cannot continue. It's nature.

 

[Spiderman]

If we expanded our frame of reference so that the earth was but a single cell in a larger organism as biologists how would we classify human beings within that cell?

Would we say they are necessary for the cell's survival? Are they beneficial in some way in a symbiotic relationship?

Are they harmful?

 

[Politico]

Easy....

We weren't created.

 

[JOSweetHeart]

^^^ I believe that we were.
