We're not 100% there yet. Look at how we pollute the environment, kill....

We invented the word and called ourselves human. Fortunately that was in a day when few people knew what was going on so getting agreement on terms was a clever disguise for intellect that others looked up to as leaders beyond reproach. Nowadays were we to come up with a term to describe every thing on two feet, talks, drinks coffee and eats just-about everything on the planet and drives around in cars, we would have great difficulty reaching a consensus cause every one would look at everyone they don’t like and try to vote them out of the group. So we have this word….humanity and we still vote to put lots of folk in cages. At least “humanity” gives a since of being part of a really big group of us but provides no direction after that.
