The fact that humans are soooo much more intelligent than brute beasts, imo, is indicative that humans have an eternal spirit.
Could you explain to me the connection between spirit and intelligence?

My question is not at all irelivant. Tho I realy doubt this side-tangent about animal inteligence is at all "on-topic", I was just illustrating the idea that animals don't need the things we need.
Dolphins do just fine without computers and moter cars as a result most dolphins spend a majority of thier time playing and having sex. Furthermore why would the dolphins need to comunicate via internet? Their voices cary for litteraly miles under watter, alerting other dolphins where the fish are and other current dolphin-events.
You cant fly like a bird, or breath underwater like a fish. Humans inteligence, and morphology, is sort of natures "Jacks-of-all-trades" and true to form, we are masters of none.

Closing down - Not Coffee House type topic
This seems to be something that should have been run through the Proposed New Topics process.
The opening message is pretty weak, and would not (IMO) been advanced.
Closing topic. Try a better message 1 in the PNT forum, if you wish.
