[quote]Technically, we were never supposed to[/quote] Why not? There's no basis to say this. If your argument is that other animals haven't coordinated in such a manner, then that would be a false equivalence. We really only have one example of animals with the level of cognition and socially oriented psychology that humans have, and it's humans. And in that one example, these abstractions of natural resources have occurred. The only argument one could logically make is that humans should be bound to create what we have, because there exists no counter-example. In all reality, nothing is actually completely synthetic. Everything we've done, technologically and socially, has started from a natural basis. Sure, you could argue that artificially created elements larger than Plutonium are "unnatural," but we still used natural elements to create them. Everything that has been made on Earth has come from Earth in one way or another. Do we argue that human society and technology is gestalt in nature? Has it's composition evolved to the point, where the abstractions are to be though as separate from the natural world? I don't see any magic wands. I don't see anything that's physically impossible. I would argue that the assertion that humans have made anything unnatural is more of a delusion of grandeur than it is an objective observation of reality.
