Did you just say being human transcends being human? How is that even possible?

Perhaps it is because of age old traditions of religious faith which gives hope and joy to so many?
1: I see I should have chosen a better formulation. What I meant is that humans can do things that are not prescribed in their genes, for exemple killing ourselves. I called the ability to do that 'being human'. Sorry for the confusion.
2: I don't really see what that has to do with it. Maybe you should explain yourself a bit more.
whatever floats your goat
