yes, the only difference is our abiluty to come up with categories itself!Originally Posted by LHX
what im saying is that we are animals
the word animal should not evoke an emotional response.. nor should the word "animal" be viewed with a negative connotation.. living things of a eukaryotic nature are either plants or animal
humans are animals
it is mainly human arrogance and ego that is the guiding force that allows us to want to distinguish or separate ourselved from the animal kingdom, meanwhile all the while it is to no avail because we are what we are..
we are eukaryotic, chordates (vertebrates) belonging to the class mammalia (mammals) and the order/subgenus primatae..
does everyone agree that there are only 2 choices "plant or animal"?
lets start there... or do those that think that humans should not be defined as animals believe that homo sapien is a class of life in and of itself (ie plant, animal, human)

Humans are like, bipedal, cerebral and relatively fur-free. Its this, in part that gives us the impression that we're different (and superior) to all the other animals. Even if the most important thing for us to do is maintain our bloodline. I guess being able to rationalise brings double standards along with it.
Chicks dig giant robots
I don't think we should get carried away with this humans are animals stuff.
If humans = animals, then animals = humans.
No? Then we ain't animals.
LMAO - i dig it TimbsOriginally Posted by My First Timbs
the thing i love most about your observations is that they can be used to prove the opposing point of view
it was human arrogance and ego that made 'the animal kingdom' - and i agree - it is human arrogance and ego that separates ourselves from what we created
there are some who think that all definitions are inadequate, and applying anything as static as a label to these things is to misunderstand their natureOriginally Posted by My First Timbs

lmao...I tried, but I really hate the animal/human analogy. And I didn't want to just say that, so i thought I'd get creative wit it.
It was wack. lol
from a common sense approach to things, the only difference between animal and plant is the ability to roam the land, and some people could even argue that plants DO move, but they move a lot slower
as for the other part:
the difference between the human animal and non-human animal is intelligence
ego comes AFTER intelligence

Is ego a good thing? or, is it bad?
Is there 'good' ego and 'bad' ego. Or is it all the same?
an ego is a toolOriginally Posted by Aqueous Moon
used in the right way - it is good
some might even say necessary
used the way we see it these days, it is bringing our civilization to an end
it is thru the ego that we are able to see equality
and you-know-who can't get to equality

its very simple
side note - where do insects and microbiology fit into your schematics
microbes that are eukaryotic (meaning composed of more than one cell) are lumped into the animal category... altho by in large most microbes are prokaryotic (unicellular)
all insects are in the animal category (they of course are multicellular, however are simply invertebrate)
i did neglect to mention the other category
there are plants, animals and fungi (i 4got to mention fungi are fundamentally different from plants)
so humans are obviously animal.
definition or not, from a simple classification standpoint its obvious that we are no different from all the other creatures lumped into the animal category
in order to seperate ourselves we must 1st have a justifiable reason to do so (ie an objective nomenclature based charateristic) that distinguishes us from other "animals"... asof yet there are none.

This is wrong on so many levels.from a common sense approach to things, the only difference between animal and plant is the ability to roam the land, and some people could even argue that plants DO move, but they move a lot slower
Learn to think properly. Thats not a dis. Your thought process really is off.If humans = animals, then animals = humans.
