comment #175 Morte Cerbrale
I have to disagree with the sentiment:"eventually propelled one animal to rise above all other creatures on Earth" We have not risen "above" in my opinion, not whilst were busy making a lot of the other creatures extinct, thus endangering the world wide ecosystem and thus risking our very existence. I understand the point, and it might just be semantics, but to me it smacks a little of latent elitism. We're different, and lucky enough to have cognitive and abstract thoughts, thats all.

Human Wisdom has moved forwards thousands of years ahead. Keep up with the times.
