The Sorrow of my Humanity

How our species can have so much knowledge, yet fail to embrace the simplest concept, "Do not kill what you cannot eat" is beyond me. It goes far beyond the blind parables of religious dogma, transcending, at least in my mind, into the realm of spiritual fitness.
It is an incredible evil and the greatest flaw of mankind, that we have not been able to progress past the simplest of ideas, said idea being thus; orchestrating and enacting the ritualistic practice of any kind of mass murder, is simply the act of ignorant and savage genetic instincts that originate from the remnant reptilian brain lying forgotten in our cerbral cortex. Until we learn to stop that instinct from repeating itself in our future history, down through the generations of mankind,we will inevitably continue down the path of our own unavoidable extinction.
The planet I find myself living on is such a beautiful place. Everything in my soul cries out in anguish at the nightmare mankind has inflicted upon it, and all the species who are doomed to inhabit it with us.
If it were in my power, I should pull the plug at once, and snuff out every single flame of self-aware life on the planet, including myself, for I should fear to my marrow that that ancient evil would somehow manifest itself in me, and the whole terrifying explosion of mankind would once again begin laying waste to everything else in the universe.
We are the only species who cannot, and will not, adapt and live in peace with any other life form, with the exception of only one other manner of life on this globe. That life form is common enough. We call it "Virus".
