: Stuart, You could see how superior you really are to any thing simply. Just remove yourself from society and what it provides for a couple of days and see how superior you are then, eh? How will you get food? defend yourself against other animals, the elements, etc? What can you do on your own that will let you out-survive the other animals? Will you be able to compete successfully? I highly douby it, nor could I. We are nothing without the knowledge we 'borrow' from others, human or not. This doesn't sound so damn 'superior!

First, you know very well that there are people who know exactly how to live on their wits in the wild. So humans are quite capable of this.

Second, you mistakenly assume I've had no training in this area.

Third, ignorance of survial skills is in no way a measure of human inferiority to animals. Humans have learned to cooperate and specialize. Show me the animal that has HTML wired and you might have a point.
