Don't you think posts like this make everyone less responsible and they say who cares cause some "Meta" power is taking care of this?

Hi,

I entirely agree with your method of thinking. This is exactly my opinion of the religious belief of a higher power coming to save us, so why bother doing it ourselves right?

I didn't go into much detail of the idea of a meta-human here. However, meta (in this case) refers to a 'higher order', not higher power, or higher being. In short, this is the idea that humanity will begin organizing and cooperating to such a high degree that we create another entity altogether. (not unlike our bodies that are a collaboration between billions of 'individual' cells).

My thoughts towards this (It would have been prudent to clarify in the post), is precisely that humanity needs to take action ourselves if we are able to birth into our meta form. It is exactly the opposite approach of waiting for some other being to save us.
