What seperates us from the animals?

That wasn't so hard.

So the future, "more"?

 

more becoming ? it can be witnessed that
the butterflies and moths are
advancing a geometry . look out !... or don't .

 

the fossil record says very little about intellectual structures, but it does indicate the following: going from quadrupedal movement to bipedalism necessitates a change in the shape and length of the neck, which in turn allows for, and also necessitates, a change in the structure of the larynx, leading to greater laryngial mobility and furthermore changing the muscular capabilities of the laryngial flaps. we are capable of vocal language because we have a vocal apparatus which is better suited for it than, for example, that of a chimpanzee.

it has been demonstrated that other primates can be taught language to an extent (therefore they have the intellectual capacity). koko the gorilla knows something in the neighborhood of 500 words, in sign language. koko can not vocalize with the same level of control that we display.

 

Birds are capable of vocal language as you describe it. The language talent is more meaningfully a conceptual talent.

 

true, but the conceptual talent is not exclusive to our species. however, we as a species are lucky enough to have both the conceptual talent and the physical capability.

 

Spelling. Most animals cannot spell "separates". All kidding aside...




Are you HIP?

1. Humor - So uniquely human. Nothing brings us closer to ourselves and to others than humor.
2. Inspiration - to divine thoughts, ideas, and feelings that transcend the consciousness of mortal humans - to breathe with God
3. Passion - Not lust. Not romantic love. Pure passion.​

I usually add
4. Empathy - to feel what another is feeling so deeply. But this is the Hip Forum and had to stop after 3.​

in language , i see the difference begins
by making symbols upon objects .
to paint a peace sign Red .

this is made from 4 directions

the two-legged ^ connect to a line of I going up
connect to a O circle of home that connect also with
the feets of a man -who , 4 . thinks bloody roses

and by this device we remember an idea
and the symbol is
artificial intelligence .
