Why eat a sheeeet sandwich when you do not have to?At the same time mother nature tends to handle things from time to time and I dont mean to sound inhumane but there are far too many humans on earth for the planet to sustain us all so something is going to come along and reduce our numbers and that is unavoidable and it seems bad if you are the one to die from some pandemic but in the end that is natures way keeping things in check.
Have a read of 'One Second After'.
