    Is Man not a part of nature. So Man's creations are as much nature as a bird's nest or a squirrel's drey.

    Therefore if you believe that man is capable of ugliness it is incorrect to say that all nature is beautiful.

    That is not to say that man is only capable of creating ugliness. Simply that there would be no ugliness without us.
    What about the platypus?


    The platypus is ugly...and its natural

    EDIT: shouldn't this be in the Lounge?

    Platypus is a lovely creature.

    I agree with JPaul....

    Nature is beautiful in all her manifestations, although not always kind.

    Man, is the planets virus.

    Since the very concept of "beauty" and "ugliness" is a man-made contrivance, it's hard to argue with your assertion.

    All nature is not beautiful to me.

    It may be fascinating but not beautiful.

    Man is the monkeywrench in nature's cycle.

    Do you know everything? do you know 3% of everything? Could it be that what you don't believe in is in the other 97%?

    Some may be unpleasant upon your eyes or scary... none of it is ugly.

    That sounds Blasphemous, no matter what religion you suffer from

    S(he)/It did create all of it that way... and for the atheists, they have all evolved and adapted to survive in their environment, to be efficient in what they do.

    This is a kind of beauty in itself.
