Of course they can be cruel, but not as crual as men to create massive destruction among others. Fish are quite similar, because in most of the cases they attack each 'race' or however you call it.

I could write about good things people do for hours, that's for sure, but the bad things are just as long. In fact, when you think about (bad/evil) stuff that people do, it's quite horrible.

Sure, a newly developed brain & amygdala can bring out brilliance, but the same brain and creative side of it also created bombs and sickness (given by bombings and depleted uranium) that not even new medicine, which the 'good brain' created, can't cure.

I think there's an ounce of good and an ounce of evil in every human being ever since the birth. And it's to the prenatal period, parenthood and society to shape it up. Surely, an individual is also who makes the difference to decide which path to take. Humans are much more complicated too, due to more developed brain and emapthy that animals generally lack.

All of that is true. But because humans have developed self-awareness, empathy and intelligence, I just see them as more important than animals.

I know this sounds callous, but again, I do not want animals to suffer needlessly at all. It's just that when I have to choose between a human being or an animal, I will go with the human.

Here's what I think.

Humans are way, way more important than animals. It can't really be compared. Humans are also more cruel than animals, much more cruel are actually. Lastly, I do believe that we need one another, killing and hurting animals is just stupid and dangerious for eco system as we need both them and plants here.

I particularly hate people who think animals are better than people.

They're not. Not only do we have self-awareness that is on an entirely different level, we also show far greater levels of compassion than any animal ever could. And to top it off we're number 1 on the food chain.

And number 2 ain't close.
We're lucky that orcas don't live on land, we'd be #2
