I absolutely agree with that sentiment as well. While we, as a species, are relatively inconsequential, Earth is all we've got (for now!) and it's a special, precious, thing indeed.
- ars 16y agoHow can you say inconsequential when as far as we know we are the only beings that can even appreciate this supernova? Size != Importance. We might be small, but we are quite important.
- aw3c2 16y agoYou are not important if only you think so.
- Jach 16y agoImportant to whom? The universe itself is incapable of assigning 'importance', so saying that something is unimportant to the universe is just as wrong as saying something is important to the universe. Humans are important to humans, and that's what matters. If only I think I'm important, then I am, to me.
