Details
Submitted by[?]: "Le Chaim" - Aesthetic Party
Status[?]: passed
Votes: This is an ordinary bill. It requires more yes votes than no votes. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.
Voting deadline: December 2533
Description[?]:
| "First question: What is your idol called nature? Or environment? What does it mean, where does it end? Are we - nature? Secondly: Every living organism changes it's environment and climate. Plants do, algae do, cows do, and, yes, and we do. What is the difference? At the end of the Cambrian Age the masses of plants had produced so much oxygen that 90 % of the species died out. Oxygen is dangerous for the climate. If this plants had not died out, if the dinosaurs hadn't died out there wouldn't be no men, no polar bears, no whales. Evolution cannot work without change. And this change evolution needs comes mainly from inside evolution itself. Evolution is a system that regulates itself by creating the change it needs to work. What all those green gurus and priests of the idol "climate protection" or "sustainability" forget: We are living on a planet that uncertainly trundels through space. We ourselves are the product of incredible accidents and changes and the whole system we are living in is change and uses it's products to create more change. What sense does it make trying to conserve what is changing by nature?" Dionysos Rubenitz |

Ask the experimenters why it is morally okay to experiment on animals, and the answer is: "Because the animals are not like us." Animal experimentation rests on a logical contradiction." - Charles R.
