Comment on Are humans the only great apes that can be "holy", or could for example an Orangutan be divine?

I am sure that the scientific model of evolution is vast and flexible enough, so that we don’t have to occupy the same place those creatures dwell in.

Where then? I mean, you seem to be more confident in yourself than most biologists, so you sure know more than them and can prove why humans belong to a different category?

If you’re willing to grant me some considerable amount of money to perform relevant research and studies, I can provide a satisfactory answer.
If you can’t, or aren’t willing to, then you need to continue to live knowing that at least one person in this world doesn’t exactly accept the model of reality you prefer.

If you don’t have research backing you, why are you so confident? Just because you feel like it?

Haven’t you ever seen a person whose opinions were backed by actual research, that was nevertheless wrong?
Haven’t you ever seen a person whose opinions weren’t backed by in-depth research, who was still correct?
