Yes, I`v read that when the Spanish colonized America, many of the natives were
killed by sicknesses they brought,
In the greater view of things, we, as species, in a universe full of
all sort of varieties of species, are just part of let`s say
`natural selection`,
made up of elementary particles that will then, when we die, form
- or become part of - other species..
all is relative as old Albert E would say. Its fun, and fun to
see how big our ego is
with we are a the center, but then we need that to protect the current form
the particles that make us up have taken...
I am back into music, ordered a nice keyboard... to be delivered today.
