Now I understand where your opinion is coming from. If you think humans are just other animals, then it has obviously desensitized you to issues such as this.

I don't quite understand why you make a distinction between humans and other animals (barring intelligence).

Read that, and watch the movie. That sums up part of it, I guess. Yes, we're animals, technically; but there is a huge difference between the domesticated dog and your mother (hopefully). I think our ability to have a discussion like this should be proof enough, but I guess not.

I think for your sake you should just ignore this topic and forget it exists.

I think the fact that I'm currently over three hours away from you and contacting you instantly is proof enough, never mind that we are able to have an ~intelligent conversation.

Sure, there's a difference, but not significant enough that we need to elevate ourselves above every other lifeform on the planet. Why do you think we're not in a class (taxonomically speaking) by ourselves? It's not from any sort of required humility.

I think I'm going to have to ask you to also take some basic biology and ecology courses before you also go off pretending to be Dr. Scientist. It's not any sort of humility or pride or anything. There is a difference between us and an ape. Being about 98% identical in DNA, being in related taxa, etc. does agree with the fact that we are also animals; but that does not deny that there is something unique about us. Do you have some other species that you suggest be higher than us, or even equal? If you want to continue with that belief, please leave all sorts of technology and return to the Tanzanian forests.

Stupid posts belong in stupid threads! CONGRATS! :D

If you don't like the topic, you can go away as well. You don't need to be all "HURRR THIS TOPIC IS DUMB", but essentially contribute to it. There are many other topics you can focus on, so please do as such.

Sure, just as other animals have unique qualities in comparison to other animals. My point is that having unique qualities =/= being superior. Also, do you have any other points other than intelligence? Are you familiar with Michael Beran's research?
