Why not then just run around in jungle with spears hunting your food?
What makes a human so different from an animal is, that we have a grasp of our surrounding world which goes beyond instinct.
We may or may not understand it and we influence it and our fellow species in it.
We found means and knowlege to build skyskrapers and delusions to fly planes into them.
While a cockroach lives under your frige, which it doesn`t understand the concept of, because it is a lower species which doesnt have a bigger grasp of it`s surroundings.
Humans are special when compared with other species, and only because we understand nature it doesn`t mean we have to live by it`s cruel standerds.
By the way, you dont seem to understand evolution, it is the survival by the fittest and not the survival of the ruthless.
The survival of those who best addapt to their surroundings and not of those who exterminate others.
