we are animals.
No we're higher than animals. We...

Fuck it, this is going to turn into bible thumping, which I know you wont give a damn about. Lets just say based on your faith, you could be an animal or a higher lifeform.
Honestly, explain to me how we are higher than animals? There are five kingdoms which living things belong to, Monera, Protista, Fungi, animalia, and plantae. We belong to the kingdom animalia, therefore we can consider ourselves animals.
alright, fine. time for some bible thumping.
First, God told us that we have dominion over the animals.
We are also imbued with a soul, which animals are not.
Plus, we are an innovative race.[/quote:997bc]

We're not anything special, we just have a smarter brain, thus a stronger sense of self-awareness. That's the only thing special about us as animals. Just like we have the greatest brains in the animal kingdom, other animals have things that make them greater than us. For instance, a Cheetah can run fastest, an eagle has the best sight, and a dog's nose has the best sense of smell.

We just have the best brains, nothing else really.
