[ WP ] `` Before we allow humankind to live among us in the stars , tell us the faults of your kind . ''

Humanity? faults? hah -- 
 
 Okay, clearly the ignorance thing is n't going to work on you. Yes, we do have faults. No one can dispute that fact. You've watched us, you know what our faults are. Is it just that you want me to admit to them? To show that we are mature and confident enough to admit that we have an imaginary friend complex? Yes. We do. 
 
 But what has that given us? We do not fear death. Our imaginary friend complex has given us the ability to view death as the next step. YOU know what happens. I assume you know that we just cease to exist after death, so you cram as much stuff into your lives as possible. Humans enjoy life. We take risks that you would n't because it would be unwise to risk life. 
 
 You want us to admit that we are conceited? Sure as hell we are. Why would n't you be. How did we get to be as powerful as we are in under a million years? By being conceited. By being confident and egotistical in our own abilities. I bet it took you at least three million years because you grew naturally and were n't at all confident enough to grasp something out of your reach. We set our race ahead thousands of years by doing this. 
 
 You want me to admit that we are hell bent on our own self destruction? 
 
 We kill ourselves in droves. Imagine what that does for our enemies, to see us look them dead in the eyes and shoot our comrade in the head. To show them that human life means literally nothing to us, and we WILL win this battle even if it means only one of us survives. 
 
 Humanity is strong. You would have to be a fucking idiot to think otherwise. Humanity is smart, maybe not as smart as your race, but we are willing to fight for the cause. Hell, we killed each other for a thousand years over which of our imaginary friends was more correct than the others. 
 
 Humans are fucking insane. Do you really want to fuck with the insane race? We'll destroy you intellectually. And not in the good way. We'll make decisions that are so rash, so stupid that you'll be left thinking about how the hell we could have decided to do such a thing. And at that moment, we'll fly our goddamn space shit directly up your ass. 
 
 Believe me, Mr. Spaceman, Humans are a special breed. We do n't hesitate, we do n't think, we just kill shit. Really, really well. 
 
 Bring it, bitch.
