Just one last thing...

Saying that we are "only the most intelligent" animals is like saying "I'm only a billion dollars richer than you". Look where our intelligence has gotten us. We don't need to be stronger than a lion: we are intellgent enough to make a gun, so we can shoot the lion. We don't need to be faster than a cheetah: we invented the car, we domesticated horses. We are intelligent enough to have law and order.

Without human intelligence, you wouldn't be sitting at a computer desk having this conversation, and you probably would have been mauled by a tiger or something a long time ago. Well, maybe not, but you get my point.
