Humanity is not in charge of itself, anymore than some small group of men are in charge of it, anymore than is some megalomaniacal political leader or financial group. Life is in charge of life on Earth, and if Life wants to extinct humans or any other species it will - there's absolutely nothing one or more humans can do about that, no matter what someone believes.
But, it won't do it. Humans represent the thinking process of Life itself; Life doesn't know what it's doing without humans - we are the thinking ends of it's nervous system.
Life can not get off Earth, and populate the moon or mars, without Men to do it, and Men can't do it, except for the fact that Life wants it to happen. Therefore, Life will not extinct mankind, in fact, what it is doing, is advancing their mental capacities by Leaps and Bounds every generation! The very idea that 100 (or so) years after a couple bike makers took that first airborn flight, we would be able to walk on the moon and mars, is almost beyond the capacity of most people to fully appreciate. The very idea that 100 (or so) years after the first telephone connected two people, we (everybody on the globe with a cell phone) would be able to receive instantaneous news, video, and other interesting information over those cellphones at the same moment in time, is almost beyond the capacity of most people to fully appreciate.
And the idea that some smart 10 year old (or two or three...), will not discover - in time - a method of energy that solves the oil dilemma, and many other things "plaguing" mankind, is unimaginable, unthinkable.
You heard it here (first? second? whatever!)
