: Bigger animals prey on smaller animals. It's the law of the Jungle.
: Human beings live in a civilized society. Human beings are the most
: advanced lifeform known to civilisation. Human beings can "think".
: But yet....Human beings prey on animals. How does that differentiate
: Human beings from Animals?? Human beings have hair. How does that differentiate Human beings from Animals? Human beings sleep. How does that differentiate Human beings from Animals? Human beings eat plants. How does that differentiate Human beings from Animals?
Just because we share certain traits with animals, that is no reason to devalue human life to that of an animal. We are also have sentience and the ability to create complex machines, two items alone which put us on a higher pedestal.
: If humans can kill animals why do we have
: laws that prevent humans from killing each other?
Because humans are infinitely more important than animals (see above).
: Can we consider
: ourselves civilised or is it just a jungle out there?
I'd vote that we are much closer to "civilized" than to "jungle out there".
