Well, what actually made the difference between.. Animals vs Man in the beginning ?

 

[McBell]

What difference are you talking about?

 

[epronovost]

Humans are animals. If you want to know the key differences between us and other animals, to make a much longger story very short, we are bipedal mammals with an upright posture, a highly social lifestyle, hands with opposable digits and an enlarged cranium with a very developped neo-cortex. This is true for all hominid species.

 

[chinu]

What difference are you talking about?

Behavior.

 

[McBell]

Behavior.

gonna need to be more specific than that.

 

[chinu]

gonna need to be more specific than that.

Man has some goal, but, animal don't.

Why man has some goal, animal don't ?
What makes so ?

 

[Aupmanyav]

Why man has some goal, animal don't ? What makes so ?

Animals always have a goal, look for food, fight competitors and have sex if male, protect young ones, rest when conditions permit. Never a moment without a goal. Chinu, just give it a thought before you make a post.

 

[sun rise]

Animals and the animal level of people have the same goals: Food, sex, survival.

 

[Piculet]

What is the beginning, for man in particular?

 

[epronovost]

Why man has some goal, animal don't ?
What makes so ?

Of course animals have goals. They all try to thrive just like us. We try to fullfil our needs and so do they with theirs.

 

[epronovost]

have sex if male.

Females seek to reproduce just as much as males. Depending on the species though their courtship might be different.

No, look for food, fight competitors etc is NOT the goal.
Rather, its just the repetition of same thing over and again.

 

[lewisnotmiller]

Well, what actually made the difference between.. Animals vs Man in the beginning ?

Man did. He looked at animals, and sought to differentiate himself. So he drew a line between himself and the rest of the animal kingdom, in a form of species-based exceptionalism.

What do you mean by animal level people ?

Animals don't have goals, whereas man have higher goals. why ?

 

[chinu]

What is the beginning, for man in particular?

You can say.. early man.

 

[Altfish]

No, look for food, fight competitors etc is NOT the goal.
Rather, its just the repetition of same thing over and again.

So, in your world, what is man's goal?

 

[chinu]

Of course animals have goals. They all try to thrive just like us. We try to fullfil our needs and so do they with theirs.

If so,
what for the scientists go into the sky ?

 

[chinu]

So, in your world, what is man's goal?

Man always remain unfulfilled. No matter how much, or what he has attained. Always look forward towards some higher goal.

Whereas, this is NOT the case in animals.
