"Human consciousness arose but a minute before midnight on the geological clock. Yet we mayflies try to bend an ancient world to our purposes, ignorant perhaps of the message buried in its long history. Let us hope that we are still here in the early morning of our April day." -Stephen Jay Gould (1941-2002) American Paleontologist and Evolutionary Biologist "What is it about humans that makes us feel so special? Only one key factor, our intelligence, seems to be more developed than that of most, maybe all other beings on the planet.

Are we better equipped to enjoy life than other beings, whether we actually manage to do so or not? Is our spirit able to carry on after death in a more coherent form than does the spirit of an old elephant, a cricket or an ancient tree? Are we cosmically something special?
That's another exciting thing about being human-however intelligent and knowledgeable we become, there will always be questions which we cannot answer and phenomena we cannot understand." - Gregory Sams, Sun of God
