RE: Humans Are Not Smarter Than Other Forms Of Life, Just Different

yeah. google "craw brakes nut with car wheel"

Wow so can an Animal Study math now? If they are this Intelligent as you make them out in the comments then they should very much be able to do that.

false beyond imagination. see above.

Their skill of making the world adapt to them is very basic. Most Animals will build a small shelter with some sticks or whatnot, but that's it. That's not what I call better their living situation.

this is actually true for any species. this is how evolution works.

Not to the same extent.

Most people don't know how their car operates, their tv. their fridge, computer. the things that define their lives.
Very few of us do. Most of us are dependent like small children. this makes the entire species very vulnerable.

So you are telling me that every human who uses something that he doesn't understand is a liability to our whole human species? Wow, that's some pretty hard statement. Let's first get a master in engineering before we are able to fly a plane because we need to understand it to use it.

I'd say that more than enough humans know how cars, tv's or fridges operate, but it's nothing that you need to know in order to survive.

Irrelevant. Can you do math while crossing the street? no, but you can still be intelligent to do it.

You need to start investigating how ant and bee colonies work. Far more efficient than any human society.

How you think world war happen with millions of death? Also, what does that tell you about the "average human intelligence" if a handful of people know how to make the tools while the rest are just users? How are we any different than a monkey learning tricks?
