Are you trying to delineate the differences btwn animals and humans, is that what you're getting it? If it is, here is what I don't understand: yes, we're different -- how does that translate to one being superior? To me, it only means we're just that: different. I cannot say which is superior, as I don't have the ability to just "know" something like that as if it's a fact. It's simply not a fact, it's just a mere human belief that is held by some.
I'd say the majority of people think humans are superior to animals in every way due to our unsurpassed human spirit and brainpower - our amazing inventiveness in medicine, industry and science, ability to create and share, our wonderful capacity to explore, advance society and help create a world so filled with wonderful things and most of all, humans carry charity for others in their hearts. Are there bad humans - plenty of them - but it doesn't equate the rest of us with being on a par with animals, who live mostly by instinct to merely keep their species going.
