You just want good to happen to the next generations of Homo sapiens. And what about the millions of other species? Where is your compassion?
But such is man’s lot: he cannot do anything selflessly. If he talks of saving the rivers, he says, “Let’s save the rivers so that our grandchildren have pure water to drink.” What nonsense! It is like saying, don’t kill the girl child so that tomorrow somebody’s male child may have a sexy girlfriend.
Many of these campaigns say that if today you kill the girl child, how will you find a bride for your son tomorrow? So, the girl has no independent worth of her own, right? And what if she brings no pleasure, no service, no gratification to men? Then she doesn’t deserve to live?
