When do we cross the line from 'animal' to 'person?'

The point that we developed into humans is when we first became aware of and sought God, we then developed and progressed. Some people want us to regress and even want to be considered just another animal.

We are animals, dude. We're organisms, sharing a planet with other organisms. And you'd better actually support your baseless little assertion about god seeking there, before you start telling me what makes me human, okay? One of my biggest pet peeves around here is being told what I believe.
