Our drive to seperate ourselves from animals in previous years has driven us to become what we are. Its evolution, but we're having more of a say in it than animals. That evolution has made us superior, and we can do what we want, with only the limits of the universe itself to stop us. Of course, we still aren't completely seperated. We still kill each other for what we want. Hell, we even still fight for partners. We are a brilliant species, but we are still stupid. But I love us. We are still children, if you think about it. Not a young child, more of a pre-teen. They are smart, but still act in ways a younger child could.

Aside from how off topic and on topic that was... Here is my point. Humans are a brilliant species. I love us. People who say they hate the Human race are most likely not thinking about everything else.

Of course, this could be a great example of optimists versus pessimists, with me being and optimist.

No need to worry.
When a lot of people die, they just become numbers.

Endowed with the art of casting names upon its beings
The humans claimed dominion over every living thing

Proud as purpose as they began to walk the earth as they arraigned
The common creatures caught within the corpus cursed, conscious human brain

Every word ever written will fall short of its intent
Even sung or spoke or screamed they will betray what they have meant

Language is the heart's lament, a weak attempt to circumvent the
loneliness inherent in the search for permanence

All the future ghosts who scratch their names in wet cement
Demeaning meaning as they shout out at the emptiness
Abstractions are the stake between the anima and animus

Deflesh the word as scourge of human destiny
Behold the world in other people, life is clarity

A person can't be both dumb and stupid. Humans have the opportunity to be smart. It's your choice to be an idiot or not.

I know a [b]ton[/b] of people that are both dumb and stupid. In fact, every person who I think is dumb is also stupid.

Wow, I would rep you because I found that amusing (and quite troll-ish! :D)

But I can't.

Most of us are overcome by greed. Heck, nice things are nice to have, but I wish we wouldn't destroy everything to get something so meaningless.

I'm sitting at a $1200 dollar custom built computer right now, and when it's obsolete it will probably trash up the environment. Go green -.-

Smh It's easily possible to be smart & stupid.

Plus........................Currency is one of the most destructive man made creations of all time. Such a pointless waste of resources, plus we are slaves to it & to imagine a real life without it is very difficult.

Hell we in general are the most boring creatures to walk this planet. Also dark you said that we are the smartest beings but's thats only because we've evolved in a different direction. If you took us out of the equation, another creature would evolve just as we have.

(I don't care about grammar or spelling)

We are the only animals that have empathy, the only animals that care about others. Though it would be supremely logical (yet hugely unethical and a moral nightmare) to have any form of eugenics policy regarding non-productive or useless members of society.

I am going to disagree with you. I have seen some domestic animals care about others far more than some humans.

Other than caring for offspring, I'm fairly sure it has been biological proven that a large majority of animals live in a metaphorical (or sometimes literal) dog-eat-dog world, and therefore can't care about others.

Unless you would like to present proof contradicting this, I suggest you follow biological studies and not go by what you've "seen". Document it and write a report and send it to Harvard if you're so convinced humans don't care enough about others.

Need I remind you of the countless times America and other large nations have helped countires terrorized by disaster? Does Haiti come to mind? Japan? Sri Lanka? I'd love to hear you say that despite that, we still don't care at all about humans. At least we have the decency to not think, "Oh, those people died in Haiti and Japan, so more food and wealth for us!"

This is where you took it a little far. I simply said seen, as I have seen many cats and dogs going off and attempting to save others, in whatever capacity they are able to. Whether it be by barking to notify their fellow humans, or helping pull them to safety. That kind of thing. It doesn't happen much at all, but it happens if very rarely. Dolphins from what I remember, have been shown to show similar behavior.

And "convinced humans dont care enough about others". Where in the daylights did you get that?

In your post, you said "some", which is absolutely fine because a lot of humans are selfish and don't care about helping others.

However, by even posting such a statement, it was implied that you thought (even if it was a misunderstanding or a mispost) some animal species are [b]more caring[/b] than humans as a whole, which is wholly false. I understand that dogs and cats help people, but not nearly as much as people help people. If you are comparing a dog from the canine unit to someone like a retarded politician, it's obvious that the canine would be much more caring about others and helpful in general than a politician. However, it has been proven that humans are the most "caring" species on this planet, because we are one of the only species that have evolved past being naturally born to think "selfish".
