Where is the line between man and beast, or is there even a line

Anyone over the age of 10 can tell you evolution is a gradual process - of course there's no direct line in the sand where we collectively became humans (not implying that we're all even anywhere near the same point currently, with our current understanding of Neanderthal/Denisovan/etc introgression). Don't pretend to be retarded anon.

Language
This separates us from any beast
You may claim some primates like the famous Koko have "language," but she does not possess all the necessary requirements for a full language, namely proper syntax
Language does not necessarily mean "human," mind you, just that it is the one defined divider between beasts

Language is communication between two individuals. Nearly every organism on the planet engages is communication at some level. There are many, many reasons why sophisticated verbal language like we use hasn't emerged in other species, however they still do engage in communication and beyond our own observations we can't truly grasp the depth in which non-human organisms exchange information

>>2246719
So the charts trying to say they have more in common with African apes than humans. Got it, pseudoscience.

If our vocal chords didnt make our windpipe and esophagus in the same area for some retarded reason we would still be ooking and eeking faggot, its also out intelligence that makes us have enough mental power to use the 26 random sounds we can make with our mouth.


Chimps have language but it is based on gestures, monkeys also have language that is alien to us. As long as information can conveyed through a medium like sound its a language.

Sex chromosmes to autosome set ratio? Shouldn't it just be whole number? For humans 1:1 would be female and 1:2 would be male. Is this bait?

They basically look like a human breed between African and Indians/South-Asians. Though there are some groups whom seem culturally more into traditional ways; like extreme Amish people in America.

Although it is usually the fear of change traditionalists of every race that tend to bring others down with them, and even get in the way of genuine progression.
Just look at the average rightwinger infatuation with a false view of the 1950s...

Honestly, the line is pretty much nonexisting.

Human biology is entirely animal. we are simply just a derivative of ape, which are to the broader branch of primates; there are many cars with some being more specialized than others, they are still classified under cars.

All human psychological traits can be found with many other animals. Humans simply have far more 'ram' in the noggins to allow for more complex versions the traits.


Really, the higher awareness of humans is really the only thing that truly separates us from 'beasts'. But even this is not conclusive and just the human animal being more specialized at something than others; cheetahs will always be animals, regardless of how specialized for speed they become.

These are reclusive tribespeople, the Amish weren't indigenous to Pennsylvania when we settled. Amish is a choice, boong is a breed.

>>2247140
>Amish are tribal people
Yh thats why they cut your libreral ass up and roast you for dinner for right because they are tribal. Just shut up already and plz go with your cultural equality horseshit, Abos have paleolithic cultures, Amish is a medieval culture there is no sense of equality at all.

First off (because this is clearly several tiers above your IQ level), not they are not exactly the same...


Some people tend to want to stunt progression to hold on to a traditional past...
We see this even with the developed world...
Regardless if religious, nostalgic, or just misguided.

>All cultures have morals, as it is natural impose what the group think is 'right or wrong'; even though there is no such thing as objective morality. Even animals show signs of 'morals'
>Mainly from other cultures, but there does not seem to be anything too great about their literature; draft, boring, and usually based on misguided sky-daddy beliefs.
>All cultures do, but both pretty much stick to different developmental points to stick by for traditions; somehow the 1800s was God's favorite century.

Though from a biological stand point, you could be the result of generations of either culture; Amish have been inbreeding for so long they are practically a breed themselves. Perhaps you have been taught to embrace it and perhaps even look at outside the 'bubble' as wrong and stay. But here is where your confusion falls flat on its face.

You choose how you want to live in general. Neither is a 'destined' lifestyle, per say. A person from a city can choose to continue live in a very different way. Circumstances may even make it harder for others, but that is all.

Liberals are just mindless idiots who think they are heroes.

But that's not a line in the sand is it, most of us retain plenty of genetic material from those other species and their various migration events. The sheer plasticity of our evolution means there can never be a collective line to draw, until a dreaded hypothetical brown singularity devoid of inherited culture or expectations.
