Humanity is a high state of evolution and probably a good one too. But animals is also a good level of evolution, but humans are a bit 'higher' since we have capacity for thinking e t c. But if humanity is the highest state possible, well, then... it just sucks! /AL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
