Is the plant earth is made for humans?.

Is earth a natural place to live for humans? A hypothetical approach.

Man is an inhabitant on the earth since the long time along with many other species. Over the time, man has evolved as the most power species amongst all. And it was possible because of intellect which the nature has not given to any other species. In this article, I have tried to learn logically if we, the humans are in charge of the planet earth or we are living in an unnatural environment without knowing the fact. I hope my readers will enjoy as they go through the coming lines.

All the Abrahamic religions say that the earth is a temporary place for humans to stay. Apart from atheists, so it becomes almost a duty of every human who believes in any Abrahamic religion to scientifically dig out this statement given by the creator in the Quran, Bible and Torah (In order of revelations). 

Many scientists have worked on it and given the statement both in favor and against it. I will present the facts and will give my humble opinion about it. I would love to hear back from my readers to contact me to discuss it further.

When a human is borne, he cannot survive without the help of parents at least for the first few years of life. On the other hand, any other species is in the position to survive itself from the first day of its birth independently. It may mean that the environmental conditions are favorable for other species from the day one on this planet as opposed to humans.

Secondly, except humans, no species has to work hard for surviving as all the food is available for them everywhere without effort. They are physically resistant to extreme weather changes and can survive temperature extremes as opposed to humans who have to take special measures to survive and making their livings as no ready-made food which is digestible to humans is not available. We have to make special changes to food to be make it edible and digestive. Similarly, humans cannot survive extreme conditions of weather and they have to take very special measures to survive.

Moving a part, being humans, and having a high degree of intellect, we feel something is ethical or unethical. Some things being moral and others being immoral. Unlike other species, only humans carry the fear of death, interestingly. The believers comfort themselves by telling themselves and others that this world is not the actual place to live and we will be in ease in the next world as most religions teach. But this endorsement lasts only for a short period of time and man again gets into the worldly affairs.  

If we see the physical shape of humans and his natural way of actions don’t align with the planet. For example and very interestingly, backache is a normal symptom for almost all the humans. This could be because he stands on his feet upright and because of gravity, he experiences the pain. Most other species move on all the four limbs and rarely have backache issues as discussed with veterinary doctors. Humans, on the other hand, have to lay down or change their postures unconsciously or consciously. And the conscious efforts taught by fitness masters are postural changes which are very close to animals.  

These are the few of my observations based on my daily life, my imagination and reading on this topic. I cannot answer to this question by giving any sweeping statement. But I can comfortably say that high quality research should be conducted in collaboration with doctors, physicists and environmental scientists and astronauts to find ot more about how this hypothesis is correct. Such studies will also open the doors for our search for life after death and conducting scientific researches on the religious books, especially those which are present in the original conditions.

In the closing remarks, I would love the readers to think and do the brainstorming on this topic. I am available for inclusion in any such research, if someone is convinced that its need.
