“There are a lot of ways in which humans are nothing special. We are like fragile clay jars, made from dust, and to dust we will return.”
“My humanity is rooted in the contrast of being perfectly & wonderfully made by an omniscient God, yet completely & utterly broken in this world.”
“A need for daily interactions with close friends”
“I feel the main part of what makes us human is our ability to empathize, and feel sorry for other people in need and want to help them, that’s what makes humanity, humanity.”
“CHOICE. The ability to choose to love over hate; joy over sorrow; giving over taking; & ultimately, Jesus over this world.”
“The ability to use our claws to climb trees. Probably donuts. Alright, I think what makes us human is the ability to want to get better, right? Rather than, just I think most things in the world want to stay the same an protect themselves, where the human has an ability to protect itself and survive, but it actually has this idea of trying to evolve and trying to get better, trying to train itself, trying to make itself smarter, trying to advance the species.”
