You're operating with a RIDICULOUSLY overbroad definition of "natural" that includes pretty much everything artificial 🤦

Is it not natural for humans to create artificial tools?

[–] VikingHippie@lemmy.wtf 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

The action may come naturally, but the tools are by definition man-made and thus artificial.

[–] sauerkraus@lemmy.world -1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yes. Man-made and artificial things are natural.
