Absolutely. I don't understand why people think there is something grand in their neurotic reflexive attachment to the species they just happen to belong to. Supporting the human attack on the ecosphere (now near-terminal) is as crudely chauvanistic as pub fights over football games. But it's dressed up as belief in 'destiny' (which, like so many views professed by people who misunderstand theirselves as inheritors of scientific beliefs, is purely religious in origin).
