The Matrix

So this thought has been plaguing me for sometime and I have no idea if it is true or pessimistic or what... but here it is.... yet again a quote from a movie..

"I'd like to share a revelation that I’ve had during my time here. It came to me when I tried to classify your species, and I realized that humans are not actually mammals. Every mammal on this planet instinctively develops a natural equilibrium with the surrounding environment; but you humans do not. Instead you multiply, and multiply, until every resource is consumed. The only way for you to survive is to spread to another area. There is another organism on this planet that follows the same pattern... a virus. Human beings are a disease, a cancer on this planet, you are a plague, and we... are the cure."  - Agent Smith

 The Matrix has to be one of my favorite movies ever, and every time I watch it I hear Agent Smith say this to Morpheus and it bugs me for days afterwards. It is such an insightful and scary observation and i do not know what to make of it. Could it be true that all we humans really are is a plague on a normally balanced planet?

I keep wondering if we were just a mistake and we don't have a place in this world. Maybe (like a virus) we will keep on multiplying until we kill off the host (the earth)

Kind of a weird thought but If we don't change our ways of thinking, I don't see much hope for the human race or anyother life form on this planet for that matter.
