Mother nature is all about balance. Push her out of balance and she will kill.

Overpopulate and she will kill.

Cut down the forests and she will kill.

Pollute the land, water, air and she will kill.

Pump huge amounts of carbon into the air and she will kill.

Kill the bees and she will kill our food supply.

Kill the wolves and she will kill the vegetation.

Live with, work with, eat, wildlife you shouldn't and she will kill.

When this pandemic ends the human race will have to make a choice. Live in balance with Mother Nature or perish. It's that simple.

In my opinion, The human race would be much better off if they stopped worshiping men, false prophets and fairy tales. Instead, start worshiping Mother Nature.

1. A remote Amazonian tribe has recorded its first coronavirus case

Brazilian health officials confirmed the first case of COVID-19, the disease caused by the new coronavirus, among the remote Yanomami tribe in the Amazon.

Health Minister Luiz Henrique Mandetta said at a press conference on Wednesday that a 15-year-old boy from the indigenous tribe has tested positive for the disease.

Mandetta said that the case was "worrying," particularly because of the remote community's separation from the outside world.

The movement of the tectonic plates will ensure that.

I get it. The fact that nature and the universe is completely indifferent to human suffering is a huge and scary thing to realize. But pretending otherwise is just lying to yourself.

When the dead Earth spirals down to collide with the white dwarf that our sun will become, the only good thing is that all life on Earth will have been dead for billions and billions of years.

Worship mother nature and you have an average life expectancy in the 30s, primarily because of high infant mortality. Some studies showed that hunter gatherers had a lot of free time. It was so much better than modern life. Follow up research showed that the first research forgot things like planning and tool preparation. And both left out differences in food prep and other presumably irrelevant labor. So it was better than modern life until you factored in the rest of the crap that had to be excluded in order to support the conclusion. There's no way the researchers, even if they were clueless grad students, could have missed all the labor they excluded. But the time commitment turned out to be roughly the same and they'd have had no thesis. All hail the thesis.

Oh. And life expectancy was still in the mid 30s.

At least my religion doesn't want people dead.

What a few rich people have done to this planet in the name of profit is pure evil.

I appreciate Gaia but I am called to Sekhmet. I see Goddess as a friend and Ally. I bow down to nothing including Gods and Goddesses. However I show my love and appreciation of them.

Gaia is suffering so much.
And there is no reason to let it go on .

The psychopath narcissitic authoritarian people must be limited and removed from finance,business and power, forever.

Sekhmet remove the corrupt from power,destroy thier agendas and make them lose thier wealth,return it to the people,make them change or die, forever in the name of Maat.
Ta'Maat Sehkmet
Sa Sekem Sahu.
