  1. The thing that separates us from animals is that humans have a physica body and a spiritual one (soul). Humans have the capacity to know they have a creator, or a master of the universe. Humans can also articulate, they can talk, convey emotion.

  2. Ability to speak a language, or languages. To come together for a single cause, we have a mind complex enough to comprehend problems, resolve them and enhance natural materials into tools and other objects for other uses.

  3. Humans are unique because he have our own way of communicating. Every country has there own language. Even if we cant understand what some people are saying you can just look at people's body language. Each human is also important for something.

  4. The difference animals and humans would be that we can communicate effectively. Unlike animals, they can somehow communicate, but not effectively. Also, if you were to kill an animal you would not get penalized for doing that as if it were a human being, you would get penalized

  5. The fact that we as humans are born with a conscious, a knowledge of what is right and wrong, makes us much more complex and different than an animal. The fact that we can pocess morals that we ourselves try to hold up in this slowly desentagrading world. We are simply all animals inside dispite the fact that we have the potential to do things in life contrasted to an animal. However ne thing that everyone in the world pocesses wether we are conscious of it or not) we all have instincts. When any living being on the earth is threatened, our natural instincts automatically emerge from somewhere inside of us.

  6. Humans are separated from animals by our free will, where we force animals to sit in zoos or be pets or kill them for food, we stand on the pedestool of having thumbs and more thought power. People seem to think that just because an animal cannot speak English nor communicate thoughts and have logical conversation puts them below us. Humans and animals are not actually that different.

  7. I believe we're not any different than animals. Humans fight,love,and communicate. Humans fight each other just like dogs, love in which they find a mate and communicate as so many other animals do. The difference is that humans are natural destroyers animals other animals aren't.

  8. When God created humans, he made us above all creatures of the earth. We were made in his image. The thing that separates humans from animals is that we have the ability to have spiritual awareness and can have a relation ship with God

  9. What makes us human is that we all speak we're we can understand each other, an we can go an cook our food take a shower and we all have jobs. We are all humans and what makes us different from animals is that animals don't speak and they live in the wild an have to hunt for their food. They are some times living with us humans because we want pets an like to have animals around.

  10. The qualities that seperate us from then any other creature on earth are our high intelligence. We are more intellectual than any other creature on earth allowing us to think everything through we also have emotions that make feelings for humans stronger than animals witch is why murdering another human matter more as opposed to an animal.

  11. We have a personality. We as people have multiple feelinngs to express. Other than that, there is practically nothing. And in some case, animals have feelings. People raise familys, and so do animals. So, in many ways we are basically the same.

  12. I believe that The main difference between man and beast is man's ability of higher thinking. The power to form thoughts and analyze the environment is the greatest tool any species could possess. With their ability to think at levels no other animals can, humans have been able to create language, religion, and technology. With all the advancements that man has created, they quickly became the dominet species on Earth.

  15. I believe what makes us different than animals is the way we think. Humans have the ability to think more in dept and solve problems. I mean when do you see a goat doing Geometry? Also, humans have a more developed brain and unlike animals we have more emotions.

  16. I think the difference between man and beast is by the actions we do. Like humans are capable of many things like making tools creating machines and doing complex problems. Unlike animals they don't have the capabilities that humans have thats what makes man different from beast.

  17. Humans have dominance over animals. Humans can provide more in a life time then a dog can, and this is why animals are considered to be property.

  18. The main difference between man and beast is that even though man can be reduced to slightly above the beast's level, we can never be reduced down to the beasts level because we have one base trait that ordinary animals do not, and that is the ability to intelligently find a way to solve the problem.

  19. The thing that makes people different from animals and all the other creatures on this earth, is that people can do a lot more things. For an example, people are smarter (some of them), we have thumbs that work right, and they can walk up right. Also people ran the world.

  20. Humans are more complex than beastly creatures. The human brain allows us to see and act different than other creatures. We are humans because of our intelligence and our smart brains.

  21. Human are obviously smarter than animals. Most animals eat without using their hands. Humans can help there selves and can make their own food for themselves. Humans and animals both have a personality but humans can express theirs.

  22. I believe what makes humans different than animals is the capability to have spiritual beliefs. When God made humans, He made us greater than any other creature. Animals do no have the ability to have spiritual beliefs.

  23. Humans ability to reason is what separates us from animals. An animal can only base decisions off of their instinct unlike humans who can use logical reasoning to solve a problem.

  24. There are many difference between humans and animal the major one is, humans can talk and express there feeling. When a human kills a human or animal then they have thoughts of doing it or have a reason when a creature does it they don't mean to do it in hurt.

  25. I think that the difference between us and animals is the we have the ability of higher thinking and the abilities to adapt to our environment. Us as humans we can build things from nothing which makes us superior in the world. We can solve problems beyond what is capable by animals.

  26. The difference between that of a human and those of another living being is that humans are able to convey their thoughts and feelings clearer that of an animal. Animals can show some feelings but it is hard to decipher their feelings which is why people are known as a succeeding race.

  27. The fact that we are human has something to do with science and God, we were made by God in the beginning, and Science explains how we work.
