I agree because we humans are more clever because we have more developed brains and we can create beautiful artworks like paintings, while other animals can't create things yet. Another reason is that we're more highly evolved and can create more interesting and creative things because of the technology we have created and use.

Humans are very different to animals . Although many species may be extrememly smart they do not have the same abilities as humans . For example Humans can read , write , sing and ofcourse talk . Animals although very clever have dfferent characteristics .Which makes them better at some things . For examples some animals are expereinced hunters . To conclude animals and humans are both different in many ways , but both have strengths and abilities .

I believe that although our artistic achievements help show our superiority over animal, it’s our phenomenal brain that sets us apart. Without our amazing intelligence we would not be able to even hold a pen, let alone complete a masterpiece. Not only are we artistic but we can work out mathematical equations, quote Shakespeare or learn about how our bodies work. I understand that others may claim that it is our artistic achievements that show our superiority most as animals have a certain level of intelligence, but no artistic capabilities. However I believe that our incredible intelligent brain conquers this as it is so much more powerful than animals. Have you ever seen a goat finish Pythagoras’ theorem?

This statement say that humans and animals are seperated, which I agree and disagree. It's quite obvious that animals can't do any of those things, like painting, music ect.. and humans do have the ability to do those things, but it doesn't seperate us.

I agree that what separates humans from other animals is partly to do with their artistic achievements but many of mankind's great pieces of artistic work is to do with animals because they are inspirational.

I agree because humans are more clever, have greater achievements such as poetry plays and paintings. animals have achieved far little and haven't even began to any of our achievements. Animals have from 2-4 legs but humans have 2 legs and sometimes one leg animals cant even speak or write. Humans can speak, write and create things e.g. phones and computers. But some very clever animals can make thing for example the monkey, which is able to peel bananas the same way humans do to.

I think the thing that separates humans from animals for starters is the appearance ! Also the characteristics the person has compared to animals is a reason why it may separate us from animals. I think that it could be possibly down to a big factor which is the achievements of the humans. It is not only this but also many people have don't much larger things than this like solve out how to cure some illnesses and many other things not just artistic achievements.

I believe humans are different from other animals. This isn’t just physically it is also mentally. An example is, when you see a human train a dog, the dog usually learns new things, where as you don’t see a dog training a human being and teach them new things. Humans have good leadership skills and can teach each other and other animals. Other animals don’t impact each other’s lives like humans do. Humans have the ability to speak and understand each other through speech. Words can break a person’s heart, inspire a nation, lift a friend’s spirits, destroy a child’s self-esteem and bring a fresh smile to a tear-drenched face. Also God gave us talents, which is a very special gift to be given that animals don’t have.

I don't completely agree with this statement as there is a high possibility that animals (especially more sophisticated ones like chimpanzees) have the ability to perform artistic pieces. I think the real difference is our taste, what we do and do not consider as art. For example, what might sound to us as a series of hollers and screeches from a monkey, might be music to another monkey.

I think that what separates humans from other animals is the fact that we are the most advanced civilization according to us.Although this raises another question if humans are over estimating how we are the most advanced in terms of civilization and we aren't comprehending other animals' civilizations. Poetry and other arts can be very difficult to understand, humans sometimes cannot comprehend other people's art so how can we tell if other animals are producing art. Other animals may have a different meaning of art therefore rendering humans unable to understand the art.

Humans have much more freedom than animals in terms of what they can achieve and accomplish. Although Jesus took the form of a human it does not necessarily mean that god favors humans over animals. As one of the most intelligent beings on the planet we are separated from animals by the fact that we can create art and music and do things no animal could ever do. The complexity of art shows that no ordinary organism can paint or sculpt and so the fact that we can create complex iconography, calligraphy and murals is what separates us from animals. Animals cannot sing or dance as beautifully as humans and are not smart enough to play a musical instrument; this is what makes humans unique.

Some people may agree that the thing which separates humans from other animals is our artistic achievements because we have the ability to create masterpieces, such as creative architecture and can create music and paintings.
