Since we share a common ancestor what else did you expect?

Perhaps it would help us to understand what you are talking about. Because you point is lost on me.
Ask the whales. They know various types of conversation involving danger, nurturing and food, but of course no specific translations.

. . . . because we share common ancestry by the evidence, more distant than other primates, but yes we share common ancestry.

You clearly are not familiar with other forms of life or even basic biology. Yes there are things that man can do that other animals cannot do at this time which not to say that given time another species could do the same things. Our biology is basically the same. It is only your fantasy that makes you feel superior to other life forms that could cause you to say such an arrogant statement. Try understanding more about the other forms of life and see what they can do that humans cannot do. We are all interconnected and there is no room for the feeling of superiority. Again with all our knowledge and technology look to see what we are doing to our world and then reconsider just how smart we are.

You really do not understand the world outside of your four walls you live in. Birds such as the new Caledonian crow or the African gray parrot that show similar intelligence behaviors as compared to apes. Now we are talking about a completely different forebrain pattern showing convergent evolution can create similar cognitive abilities. Just because we are the first species to this level of cognitive behavior, the structure and potential is already in place for many animals to evolve similar abilities. And we are seeing increasing complex behaviors as animals have to adapt to changes in the environment. We are also not evaluating them well in their natural habitats to where they have adapted to so we are underestimating their intelligence already. New attempts to study behavior in the field have given us an insight that we have underestimated animal intelligence.

Really look around and spend time in the natural world without your preconceived prejudice and you will see that the differences are not so great except humans seem to have an much superior ability to destroy the world we live in.

I didn't say we came to earth by magic and I didn't say that we differ from other animals
biologically, my point that humans made unique compared to other animals and that
isn't by accident, this is a plan and it's up to you if you prefer to close your eyes and mind.

Of course it was an accident it is through natural selection. And no my mind has been and will always be open and that's why I have learned how wrong we have been about animal behavior and who close we are to other animals with clear evolutionary potential for other animals. How much time have you spent in the field studying animals and studying comparative animal behavior especially with the new research the has been found? Humans were designed the same way all animals are through the evolutionary process. Again all animals are unique not just humans.

You can't say all are unique while all have similar way of life, humans created
big cities, making the world a better place to live in, fighting diseases not
only for humans but even helping animals and cure them, which animal
on earth do the same, and you say in simple words all are unique.
There is no such thing as accident in science nor the science of evolution. In the science the deliberate cause is natural law

They do not all have a similar way of life. Surely you know this. Animals help animal and plants help plants - nothing new their. As for cities many insects from ants to termites to bees create their type of cities suitable for them. There are many altruistic relationships in nature. Humans knowledge of the would and how it works is greater than any animal yet humans are also destructive. No other animal has destroyed more of nature than humans. If you consider the organism itself human cannot convert CO2 with water to form sugar and oxygen which we are dependent on and cannot live without. That seems just as unique an that is from plants. Humans cannot fix nitrogen into a usable source by themselves without our technology yet there are fungi that can. Humans cannot fly to the top of a tree as a bird does.
Yes our technology has allowed us to do many things but with all our knowledge and technology we have not learned how to live in harmony with the natural world, or at least the majority of us. There is an interdependence with living things which creates a balance. Humans do not know how to do this. So you can think you are so much above animals but we live in we are failing miserably to live in balance with the natural world. On a collective level humans have done many amazing things on the individual level we are not so different than other living forms all with unique aspects.

If not biology which is the study of all organisms then what? What makes you feel so superior?I'm not talking about biology otherwise pigs and mice have similarities with humans.

Still you can't understand the point.
There're many kinds of birds that can fly and even insects do.
There're many kinds of mammals that walk on 4 legs.
there're many kinds of fishes that swim.
No animal can read and write, except humans
Only one unique kind that no other animal can be compared to him
This is a fact, humans were planned for.

Why? Just because we can read and write? Is that an ability that your god lacks? What if God really really likes bacteria. For example by number of cells you are more bacteria than you are human. We may be just a handy little tote bag for his bacteria buddies.

The great difference between humans and the rest of the animals in their way of life
can't be possible except if it was planned for, be it God, be it X be it aliens, that
isn't my goal, the point is that we're here due to a plan.

Why? Handwaving and magic is not an explanation. Neither is "because I say so". The difference is not all that great when investigated at any rate.
It would be so nice of you could present some sort of evidence for once.

If we think deeply of how we came to be and how the universe came to existence
then it's really more than magic, who started things to begin with while there was nothing,
if God then the question how God existed if X then how it existed, no answers.
The way of life of humans and the great gap between humans and animals in terms
of their way of life pointed out that someone planned for it.
I'm not promoting for God, so please don't append God to the topic.
