What if we are just a greedy species who rape and destroy this great gift so we can have fast food and telephone, cars and planes
We waste resources

I was thinking of the old myth of how we were created as slaves to basically mine what our overlords needed / wanted , But what if it's much bigger then that and we are still doing their bidding by continued mining bringing metals and minerals to the surface of the planet ? We as a race have consistently mined the planet in all recorded history and still have not depleted or unearthed all the Planets resources .
What if this is what our creators do create races on other planets that are materialistic in nature so that all their life time they search out for the shinny things and useful materials of their planet . All along this is what we have been guided towards with the advancement of technology .
Time could mean nothing to our creators and all they do is seed planets with what is essentially "Ant colony's" and they make a circuit around the Universe collecting each planets resources . After we have done all the work they come back and use huge scoopers to scrape up what we have unearthed over our time on this planet . Look at Nazca were entire mountain tops have been scraped clean .. Just a thought I have not seen this angle talked about .
