OK, Jean-Claude, I will rephrase a prior question to you in light of the
above statement - specifically. How do you know that nature did not intend
for me (as a human) to "improve" the squash by making it bigger? In other
words, how do *you* know "how much" nature intended me to eat? Perhaps
nature wanted our species to increase and flourish by gaining control of
the ecosystem to "some" degree. Can I not be a tool of nature just as any
other creature can?
