A continuation of the discussion i was having with 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.
