You are being stupid.

First, the greater the diversity the more stable the ecosystem. That's not theoretical.

Second, if you can't see the aesthetic, historical, moral importance of tigers, asian elephants, bald eagles, wolves, friggin snail darters, then God or nature left a piece out of your heart, brain or soul.

Third, you're only being stupid to provoke me.

Fourth, in what way would your stance argue against people hunting each other for sport or profit?

fifth, I'm sorry, I just can't give any credence to you actually being this stupid as opposed to layering on idiocies that at this moment in your life you think of as in some way lgiving you the personlity most people your age aquire getting a tattoo or a really keen jacket.
