  3. Firstly rip prince phillip and my sympathy to the queen. Sadly i sense twatter has been at work undermining them tho. I have now witnessed multiple uses of a quote i can find no evidence of on the internet. It seems to have been lifted from this forward he wrote for a book in the 80s. He was one of many celebrities to do so. The lift comes from the final sentence accusing him of wanting to cause a deadly virus. Prince Philip, in his Foreward to " If I Were an Animal"; United Kingdom, Robin Clark Ltd., 1986 I just wonder what it would be like to be reincarnated in an animal whose species had been so reduced in numbers than it was in danger of extinction. What would be its feelings toward the human species whose population I just wonder what it would be like to be reincarnated in an animal whose species had been so reduced in numbers than it was in danger of extinction. What would be its feelings toward the human species whose population explosion had denied it somewhere to exist.... I must confess that I am tempted to ask for reincarnation as a particularly deadly virus. Tbh even if it had been true? Then there would have been a massive uproar about it. Funny it comes out just after his death. Real classy. Here are some of his other quotes on conservation/over population. Thats where hes coming from in all this. He was president of the WWF in the eightees i believe. He seemed to be also advocating more worldwide birth control from what i can make out. Probably upsettting many faiths/countries. True to form he spoke his mind tho. The world population 60 years ago was just over 2 billion and it's now more than 6 billion. This huge increase - an explosion really - has probably done more harm to the environment than anything else. Wildlife of the world is disappearing... simply because of a general and widespread ignorance and neglect For conservation to be successful it is necessary to take into consideration that it is a characteristic of man that he can only be relied upon to do anything consistently which is in his own interest. Cannibalism is a radical but realistic solution to the problem of overpopulation. Last one my fave and typical of him. This is why i dont do twatter.
