Xibalba: Place of Fright

"The Earth has cancer and the cancer is Man." ~Club of Rome


"Human beings, as a species, have no more value than slugs." ~ John Davis editor of Earth First!


"A cancer is an uncontrolled multiplication of cells; the population explosion is an uncontrolled multiplication of people. We must shift our efforts from the treatment of the symptoms to the cutting out of the cancer." ~ Paul Ehrlich


"The extinction of the human species may not only be inevitable but a good thing." ~ Christopher Manes, writer for Earth First!


“A total population of 250-300 million people, a 95% decline from present levels, would be ideal.” ~ Ted Turner

It is difficult to believe that there are people who actually subscribe to the beliefs expressed above. But there they are and they are not alone. They would have fit right in to the Mayan culture of ritual human sacrifice. Appease Gaia.


Xibalba was the Mayan concept of the underworld. It sounds like our esteemed brethren who hate their fellow humans with such passion would like to establish Xibalba right here on Earth. The people above do not see themselves as part of the 95% but as part of the 5% who will eliminate the 95%. Population control means people control which means control over procreation, control of resources, control of the food supply and what goes in it, control over disease treatment, control, control, control....


"Childbearing should be a punishable crime against society, unless the parents hold a government license. All potential parents should be required to use contraceptive chemicals, the government issuing antidotes to citizens chosen for childbearing." ~ David Brower, founder of the Sierra Club


"For the planet’s sake, I hope we have bird flu or some other thing that will reduce the population, because otherwise we’re doomed." ~ Susan Blakemore, science writer


"I suspect that eradicating small pox was wrong. It played an important part in balancing ecosystems." ~ John Davis editor of Earth First!

“The extinction of Homo Sapiens would mean survival for millions, if not billions, of Earth-dwelling species. Phasing out the human race will solve every problem on Earth - social and environmental.” ~ Ingrid Newkirk, former PETA president

Can we start with you Ingrid? 


Pinky: What are we going to do tonight, Brain?
Brain: same thing we do every night, Pinky, try to take over the world!


Brain: Pinky, are you pondering what I'm pondering?
Pinky: I think so Brain. People are sheeple. But where are we going to find 6.65 billion coffins at this time of night?
