True. I wasn’t debating that, just saying if they’re going to sit back and watch us boil alive, they’re useless and not worth considering. We’ve got existential problems.

e: I see what you’re saying – maybe if we learnt we’re not the centre of the universe we’d come together. I guess I’m a cynic and I don’t think that would happen. We’d more likely enter new holy wars, with the major religions disrupting society again. Meanwhile, we’d still boil alive.
