If evil existed maybe. But unfortunately for you're argument. Evil is simply a idea made up by humans. Evilness and goodness, is irrelevant to the universe.

There is only those that could survive. And agriculture helps in that regard

There were no banks before civilization and there were no civilizations before agriculture.

The garden of Eden was civilized, agriculture ruined all that. Efficiency is not necessarily civilized be it agricutural or mechanistic. Endurance by any means does not necessarilly mean civilized, organized murder is not civilized is it?

There is a other human invention. Civilized :). You think nature gives a fuk about how civilized you are?
Nature only cares about those who could survive.

You are not happy b3ecause you are stupid.
Even then it might not be a natural talent. Once you are 3 ft past the stupid line fee free to experiment as all efforts will be rewarded to their fullest. It might even spawn a youtube channel. This is not it btw no matter what the stupid sign says.

You see,(and it's a tough one, I know) if you are civilized, you are cooperating with the other members of your civilization and that happens to be a big part your survival tactic. Gathering together into civilizations is a means by which we spread risk among one another and increase our survival rates over those of loners.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Among all the democide estimates appearing on this website, and in the table on the lower right, some have been revised upward. I have changed that for Mao's famine, 1958-1962, from zero to 38,000,000.
(after they took all the guns in '49, db)

And thus I have had to change the overall democide for the PRC (1928-1987) from 38,702,000 to 76,702,000. Details here.

I have changed my estimate for colonial democide from 870,000 to an additional 50,000,000. Details here.

Thus, the new world total: old total 1900-1999 = 174,000,000. New World total = 174,000,000 + 38,000,000 (new for China) + 50,000,000 (new for Colonies) = 262,000,000.

Think of the death toll if seven billion of us suddenly had to forage for food as hunter-gatherers?

Hint: It would be pretty damed close to seven billion.

We had a millions years of not doing that till civilized government occurred to produce, buy, and use weapons of mass destruction to prove you wrong.
