If God created the universe and then humans play God by creating a virus, how is that not natural?
If I eat McDonald's is my poop suddenly man-made because McDonald's is not naturally occurring? In a literal sense, of course it is man-made, but to categorize poop as man-made and not natural is inaccurate IMO.

Artificial and man-made are constructs of language that we devised in an attempt to distinguish human elements from nature because we think we are more important. But in fact, they are one in the same. Humans are part of nature. Therefore, what we do is part of nature. That's my opinion. And I believe that my opinion means more to me than it does to you.


if you can't tell... I'm just having fun with y'all lol
