Humanity is no longer a part of us, we devour our resources and replace nothing, has the Human Race evolved or become a virus on Earth? Is there a way to fix the global epidemics? Is there time left for us?

It depends on how you look at it. If a person is a selfish egoist, living a privileged life, then no we are not a plague upon the planet. But, if a person can step outside their own bubble and recognize the suffering in the world, then there is a case to be made. The problem is not necessarily humans as a species, but western capitalistic consumer culture. It is unsustainable, we are wrecking the planet we depend on for life, and we are causing a lot of people horrible pain along the way. We are not alone in this, but we got the ball started. The problem now is that the momentum is too great. Now we are stuck with it. If you make the analogy of a virus in the body, to humans on the global body of earth, yeah, we suck, were a virus.

Humans are still as God made them (read your Bible). There is a plethora of undesirable people in our present Earth Age, but there are also many evolved, intuitive, kind and generous and loving individuals among us. Treat the undesirable ones as you would treat a real virus (avoid them), pray for their evolution and spiritual growth, and nurture yourself with other desirable human beings. If you can, try to teach a poor soul how to evolve into a more desirable human being, but don't feel too bad if he or she won't budge. You can't make a silk purse from a sow's ear. Everything is in God's hands. He will fix it when he is ready. We are in the beginning of the end times. When our islands disappear, look for the end.

Agent Smith is fictional. So is the Matrix. But we are destroying the planet kinda like a virus. however, ulike a virus we are able to realize the error of our ways. We have the power to change and to restore the planet. If we were a virus, we wouldn't realize the harm we are doing and attempt to slow it.

Yes, in my opinion human being is a virus... unfortunately we have to admit this. However i think we are the only virus that has the power to have a "symbiotic life" and is willing to change the way it is. Besides, we are the only virus that has a guilty conscience.

No. Hate and lack of respect is the virus. Those whom choose these specific pathogens are the ones responsible.

Turn off the Matrix and go outside.
