Evidence God Exists

[AngelThMan]

I see no reason to believe our intelligence more 'special' than a lion's teeth are 'special'. If you can provide sound reasons why, then there is the possibility I might believe you.

First of all, lions' sharp teeth or fangs are not unique to their species. Plenty of other species have them. Even if they were unique, sharp fangs don't give any species the ability to conquer the world as humans have. Humans themselves have unique physical traits, but it is their intelligence which has allowed them to achieve dominion.

...our intelligence is demonstrably not unique. It is a fact that a fair number of other 'advanced' mammals...

Show me any 'other advanced mammal' that has invented computers.

We are more adept with our intelligence than other animals on Earth... in the way a lion is more adept with its jaws than we are with ours. But that doesn't make us unique nor special.

What humans can achieve with their intelligence is far greater than what lions can achieve with their jaws. There's no comparison.

While we do hold a certain level of dominance on land, our intelligence is a product of our evolution into a changing environment. Our intelligence is no less special than a dolphin's sonar, a bat's echo location, a dog's hearing, or a cheetah's speed. Every single animal is the world has unique traits, otherwise it quite simply wouldn't be here.

Basically what you're saying is that our intelligence is a survival tool that we developed through evolution. So now explain what the development of art, science, entertainment, etc. has to do with survival. From an evolutionary standpoint, why are those needed for the preservation of our species?

It also makes the assumption that we cannot be "overtaken" by another "intelligently special" species by process of evolution.

You've been reading too many fantasy books. See what I have to deal with here?

We're so special? Put us anywhere without electricity or tools. The vast majority would die within days...

Who used their intelligence to invent electricity and tools in the first place?

These are the types of arguments I'm subjected to here. Then people wonder why I don't 'listen' (concede).
