Both you're points and the gp's are good, but yours aren't refuting his, only pointing out that the master grew more generous.

What's worth refuting in gp's post is the notion that humanity is "plundering" nature. Humanity is nature, that's what there's no escaping, unless you believe in the supernature.

I really don't think PoS or PoW are going to change what you guys are talking about.
