The ability to reason, or at the very least rationalize. We fit all the definitions of animals, yes, but there's also a "plus" in there as well. We're animals. Technically. In the same way an aircraft carrier could be called a boat.
Oh FFS CoH, there must be an unambiguous baseline for any speech, precise definitions where we can have a coherent talk. Yours is patently ambiguous. If its a philosophical matter, then its the wrong subforum. You should've clarified what you meant with 'animals'.
Quote:I see no reason why this thread should end badly. I'm not arguing rape is a good thing; quite the opposite, I'm simply stating a point that rape is not justifiable in humans by the "in nature" argument.
Mabe, but most threads like this usually end bad. kinda like mentining hitler. I will speak about this only in the presence of my lawyer.
