>>12037719Makes us not ashamed. The scientific method cannot lie against the truth, that's why it was and is accepted. The problem is people rarely prove their assumptions, so I'll undertake the proof of our dominion. No creature makes decisions to smelt steel, regardless of qualms about farmer ants and tool stealing octopi. Furthermore no creature invents new signs even when taught sign language. This comes from their innate inability to imagine unexperienced processes. Monkey see; monkey do. Therefore humans can be the only agents of science, and by extension the only functional quantum observers. If the universe won't collapse a wave for a cow then the cow and it's life are like the wood and the steel, we can appreciate they're beauty in nature, but they're really just objects to be acted upon and bent to the will of Men. Who knows the spirit of man that ascends upward, from the spirit of a breast that descends downward to the Earth?
Secondly for our brothers reading this thread. In the image of God created he him. The image of God is the difference between the mind of a man and the mind of a beast. The man can perform science and lawmaking, the creatures cannot. Read up on elephants raping rhinoceroses, God gave them a culture, but they lost it to the Ivory trade, and now they behave more basely than they used to. All good and perfect gifts are from above.
Finally for the foe reading this: just because I can find a dumb atheist doesn't mean I think you're an idiot, nor does it mean I can't share a beer with that same atheist. Wisdom is keeping an open mind till your last breath.
