“Earth provides enough to satisfy every man's needs, but not every man's greed.”
― Mahatma Gandhi

If we did colonize Mars, it would be because we destroyed Earth. We made it no longer habitual. We built buildings instead of planting more trees. The circle of life didn't matter to us anymore. We decided to live out our desires. Ignoring the way we were created. We decided not to produce and replenish the Earth. We became humanoids/robots that were stronger than we were. We became pack rats who lived on Earth, gathering so much stuff. We lived selfish years wanting more and not being satisfied with what we have.

No, humans wouldn't colonize Mars, but eventually we won't be human.
