Childhood indoctrination

[littleendian]

Nope it is: We are capable of doing mire than is required of us to survive.

And that our brainfunctions are greater and have expanded to giving us a concious mind.

That leaves me with either:

a) We are capable of doing more than is required of us to survive and therefore we can kill and torture other species.

b) And that our brainfunctions are greater and have expanded to giving us a concious mind and therefore we may torture and kill other species.

Doesn't work for me either, but your mileage may worry [sic]
