How high do you think they are on the list of the planet's
biggest problems?


Judging by the way they wash up beaches and are ingested by marine
life, I think they belong in the top 10, along with all forms of
plastic waste (teabags, coffee cups, sandwich cartons, cook-chill
food trays).

Ah. I thought the planet's top 10 problems contained things like a
billion people in poverty, huge numbers of deaths from diseases,
stuff like that.

The planet has no problems.


But thats all *natural* stuff like wot God does..
Only Man is capable of Sin.

If people lived the *natural* way there would not be the quoted billion
people in poverty.

AFAIK, we have had limited or no success with the supernatural. What's
"natural" in the context?

None of this new fangled life saving stuff like medicine and agriculture.

I was involved in one of those trades, and absolutely everything we did
was perfectly natural.

Oh. So you lived in a cave/outside? No machinery was involved in the
production or transportation?

Only normal machinery obeying physical laws; no supernatural machinery.


This obsession with *supernatural* is not natural.
These machines, where do they grow naturally?
