Humans are more prone to conflict and destruction than surviving by co-existing (tbf all animals try to ascert dominance in the food pyramid; but we seem to push our luck).

It is only a matter of time, probably millions of years, before "natural selection" eliminates our species enirely (I'm not an expert in "specieology" or whatever it is called, I do not remember at the moment).

I disagree. You include bipedal human-looking parasites in your definition of "human". Honest mistake and understandable. But remove those, and people just want to get on with their lives in peace.
