A continuation of the discussion i was having with [livejournal.com profile] endymion23:

"Survival of the fittest" does not lose its meaning with sentience; sentience merely redefines "fittest". "Survival of the fittest" is glib tripe, anyway, right up there with "meaning of life" and "free will". It sounds cool; it isn't.

You misunderstand my statement of having something to prove. I have lots to prove to those whom i deem it necessary: myself, my wife, my family. I don't have to prove the world anything. I don't have to prove YOU anything.

I appreciate the condescending admission that i have "some degree of merit." My heart is filled with blood.

And we are not "more" than animals. We're just very smart animals. This is an important distinction.

You take him to task for name-calling then resort to the same tactics. That high ground's mighty shaky, I guess.
