Perspective

It was thought that what differentiated man from beast was the ability to see things from another being’s perspective. This has proved not to be the case (see: Signs of empathy seen in mice)

I think what differentiates man from beast is the desire to make another being see from one’s own perspective.

Do you understand what I mean? Did you get it?

    Bonobos can manipulate too though. 😛 I think the difference is the urge to kill for the sheer hell of it. Us ‘men’ seem to be doing a lot of that lately…

    I did. Does that make me a beast?
