    Secondly, we need to focus on designing a more efficient and sustainable global civilization in which other species are recognized as part of the whole, valued, and respected.

Of course I agree with this and definitely include this in part of the goal to create a better civilization for all sentient beings. As you know I hope that through technology we can end animal suffering, and especially the atrocities that occur in factory farms.

Thanks for your perspective lil. I suppose I didn't include that statement because I wanted to offer a different perspective to anyone who is non-religious but struggles to find some type of spirituality or meaning, so my focus was on our species.
