Your use of the word 'special' blatantly shows your favoritism for the human species. This favoritism is based in your belief that the human race is superior. There is no way that I can show you that there are other intelligent species on this planet until your rid yourself of that false belief.

Advantage? I propose a cage match between a hungry you and a hungry chimp.

I consider that a significant disadvantage. Other species don't waste their time.

No, it doesn't.

Huh?

Maybe I'm just dumb, because I don't see it.

LOL. No, it's really me, fr0d0. Just having a little fun. I may be a theist but I ain't no saint, and I have a sense of humor.

Dolphins are far too intelligent to make up religions and worship a fictitious being.
Science flies us to the moon and stars. Religion flies us into buildings.
God allowed 200,000 people to die in an earthquake. So what makes you think he cares about YOUR problems?

Before people go up in arms, I should tell you this was meant to read 'We are the only species provided with dexterous opposable thumbs.' As a result of hurried typing, the words 'with' and 'dexterous' were omitted. My bad.
While we're on the topic, the human hand is the most agile tool in the universe. And yet humans are the only species that have it. Ever ask yourself why?

No; obviously the Invisible Pink Unicorn (BBHH) created us to be this way.

But seriously, I'd like to see you back up your claim that it is the most agile tool "in the universe". Given that we have not yet explored the universe, how you can make this claim is quite beyond me. Please give evidence.

That reminds me of "Fluke" by Christopher Moore.

I didn't know that,but it makes perfect sense,given their body mass. In proportion to size, I understand that honour goes to a species of flea.
Thought fort today Quote:Human beings are merely animals with delusions of grandeur (Tarquin St John Shagnasty)
ADDENDUM; I presume you mean 'world' rather than 'universe'; that claim would excessive even for an apologist.
