Re: Balancing the see-saw of choice.
Are you suggesting we descended from non-humans?
Define 'human' and the answer'd likely be no.

So they weren't human in the sense that we are human.

You said A&E were'nt human. How could your answer be no? Or are you saying we aren't descended from A&E?
I was describing Adam and Eve in the garden at the time of their choosing. At that time "they weren't human in the sense that we are human". They didn't have a knowledge of good and evil at that point. We do.
We're descended from them. They were human in the same sense that we are human when their children were conceived. They had a knowledge of good and evil at that point. Just like their offspring - us.
Call it a family-trait if you like. Or a shared spiritual DNA
