What do you

think separates Man from the animals? Born Again Thread got me thinking cosmically. Why are we different?
Personlly, I think that our gift is our ability to achieve our ambitions. And ambition. For example; I want to fly. No other animal other than birds long to fly. Man did and does. I would like to communicate to others , everywhere. We do, world wide through telephone and computer. I wonder what it's like on the moon. Been there done that. And I believe that that's our gigt from God. Ambition and the ability to achieve it. Now, if every would just wish everyone well and peace.....
