Sadly, we can’t coexist…even though we are fundamentally the same creatures.

According to one of the video games (the one that, according to Anno, they used to cover backstory and other stuff that didn’t fit into even the infodump ending movies), this part of what Kaji dug up isn’t true.

Just more SEELE lies (what they fed to the rank and file involved in setting off Second Impact?) so they could get away with their instrumentality plan, and Kaworu and Rei would have known that & remembered their agreement that the planet would be handed over to Lilith and her children if it weren’t for the fact S2 engines damage memory (deliberately).

Meaning that after Yui flew away from the devastated Earth in an Eva, as a god, playing with her new power is going to mindwipe her. Poetic justice FTW.

Still, some lingering sense that he’d agreed that the Lilim had the right to Earth, even though this was supposed to be his planet, might have been another reason Kaworu refused to wipe us out and take it for himself (besides the fact that it’s obvious to any decent person that the genocide of billions to make way for another race, superior or not, is NOT OKAY).

Say that someone tells you that you’re Case Zero of a zombie virus. You might not want to eat brains now, but before it’s going to destroy your brains and personality and what’s left will go out and bite people and it’s going to be even worse than World War Z: Third Impact = all humans die instantly. 

Either way, you’re dead. The only question is whether or not you want to die as yourself, and save the world in the process, or be replaced by a shambling killer, a mockery of what you used to be.
