Q: What makes us more evolved than the rest of the animal kingdom?
I heard the only thing that distinguishes usfrom homohabilis is our thinking ability.

Ok, I shouldn't of asked that question like that.
How come humans are able to think like this:
quote:
Evolution does not have a goal other than survival. Are we less evolved than whales because we can't swim as well? Are we less evolved than cheetahs because we can't run as fast? Are we less evolved than snakes because we can't slither? Are we less evolved than rabbits because we can't reproduce as fast? Within evolution, intelligence is no more important than those attributes I list above. To humans, intelligence is something that we hold very dear, but to nature it is just another adaptation.

Do you think homosapiens will grow more and more intelligent to the point of evolving into a new species?

Yeah we've nearly eliminated natural selection, and fighting for your survival is primitive anyway. Intelligence is if your allowed to think, there's an old chinese curse: to exist during a crazy time when there is chaos so your not allowed to sit and think.
Q: How does need for survival spawn intelligence/a better being?

Well according to Loudmouth an increase in parts of the brain that give abstract thought does.
