That's one way to look at it. Another way is this: The system that precedes us also made it possible for us to be born. It includes science, medicine, education, cooperation, compassion, and sometimes love. It also includes a long list of bad stuff created by humans. "The system" that precedes us is humanity's attempt at "civilization" thus far. There are various ways of leaving the system. Most of us just try to work within it enjoying the advantages of civilization and fighting, where possible, the disadvantages. Can you explain your thoughts further, organic ant?
