But we are. We have amazing cognitive abilities unparalleled by any other animal species. It's not just a deception, it's a true power. It's not even a matter of amount of IQ, they don't even meet our scale.
Now, perhaps it's a little presumptuous of me to speak of my own species so highly.
I mean, if I was bear, you know what I'd think about my own species?

Nothing. Because I'd be too stupid.

Isn't the very fact that you could ponder your own humanity and come to realization that you are an animal already a sign you are more?
*shrugs* heck if I know.
Wouldn't an animal have no concept of a deity at all?
