You know, I think you're right. We have just about eliminated completely any other competitor on the planet. The only danger left to us now mostly is pathogens and insects(besides ourselves). And once we get rid of them we can have the whole ecosystem devoted just to us. Then this very stable ecosystem will never crash and not only eradicate us but everything else. And our 'lofty goal' of being gods will be realized.
Don't think I'm being facetious either. I think you hit the nail on the head when you said
"..that's the whole point of procreation and the advance of civilization."
Of course I would say 'our' advance of civilization. And I don't believe we really can wipe out virus's and insects like we have everything else, seems like we're breeding them to be tougher.
