A Letter To Humans Concerning Your Extinction

To all human beings,

It's okay if you go extinct. You can go extinct very quickly and simply; all you have to do is not have any offspring.

You don't need to have children:

• to give your life purpose. (Having kids won't give your life purpose; it will just give you something to do. Life doesn't have any purpose; it is pointless.)

• to carry on your name or genes. (Once you are dead you will no longer exist; therefore, you won't care if they are carried on.)

• because that's the way nature intended it. (Nature didn't intend anything; it just happened.)

• because that's just the way things are. (You can change the way things are by not having offspring.)

• for a god or gods. (There are no gods.)

• so they can go to heaven. (There is no heaven.)

• so they can experience joy. (As long as they don't exist, they don't care about experiencing joy.)

• so they can understand the universe. (The universe doesn't need to be understood.)

• so they can save the planet. (The earth is a rock; it is indifferent to what happens to it.)

• so they can protect the environment. (You will better serve the environment by going extinct.)

• so they can take care of the other animals. (It's okay if the other animals go extinct too.)

• so they can help people. (If you go extinct, there won't be any people who need help.)

• so they can contribute to society. (If there are no people, there is no society.)

No one's going to be disappointed or angry if you go extinct. Your presence is not requested.
