 The only way to sustain ourselves is to kill and take the life force of another being to perpetuate our lives in this reality. I find that to be rather strange. If earth really is a  school where a lesson is to be learned from life and death; you can’t really learn if there is only one type of experience which is positive. If that is the case what are the guidelines to graduate from this school…what are we actually learning here? 
 You’re learning how to cheat on your wife, neglect your child,  hoard bitcoin and take from everyone while you give nothing.  Innate selfishness #iNAteLyHeAleD
