- TeMPOraL 11y agoSorry. Didn't realize at first you're quoting George Carlin. I'm watching the video now. It's the first time I hear about him. I see now that anthropomorphisation of planet is a part of humour. Sadly, too many people think that way for serious - that the planet is important for itself, that this particular state it's in ("blue marble") is somehow meaningful for the planet itself, or valuable for reasons not related to having humans on it.
