We Give The Universe Meaning, Like Nothing Else

This idea is another example of how we as humans assume we are the center of everything. It is a..."if a tree falls in the forest" kind of thing. To me we are simply child humanity coming to know existance one step at a time. Like any child we fumble and like any child.....it's all about us.

Within this statement lies much. You must accout for human arrogance/ reluctance to concede to "animals". You must account for our lack of knowledge about ourselves let alone our ability to accurately assess other intelligent beings. Below you have provided a good example of both.
