[QUOTE="Shemjaza, post: 76299633, member: 146291"] Even traits that seem to exist on a continuum like consciousness and empathy could certainly have a threshold over which you would consider human level. I was trying to imagine a community of creatures where some had an ability to comprehend morality and identity and some did not... but when you think about it on the day to day it might not be relevant. A dog can be loyal, friendly and cooperative without human levels of self awareness and our two species find a way to interact. It occurs to me that while I don't believe that Adam and Eve were a literal pair of individuals and I don't believe that divine intervention was necessary for human morality and consciousness, I still accept that these traits must have begun to appear in a population of hominids and not been universal.
