Evidence God Exists

It's laughable that you present beluga whales as proof of animals with sapient intelligence. Especially when they're performing tricks taught by humans, imprisoned in tanks created by humans. NO ONE in the fields of science, biology, or marine biology consider beluga whales, or any other animals, to have sapient intelligence. Humans are the only species with sapient intelligence. You're dancing circles around the real issue, perhaps in fear that you won't be able to answer the real question: Why are humans the only species with sapient intelligence?

The entire human race are all suddenly intelligent now?

Get real.

No - you get real. You just took an accurate statement and propped up a strawman. He said the human race is the only (current) living species to possess sapient intelligence. That doesn't mean the entire race is intelligent - it means that the across the entire gradient of the human species, there is a general range of human sapience that is noticeably above other animal species.

Of course, I don't agree with AngelTh's premise, as human intelligence is an outgrowth of complex primate social groupings with evolutionary pressure to adapt to different environments quickly.
