There are and were people who claimed we aren't (or aren't entirely) apes, mammals, animals, and even matter. The line they draw doesn't matter just that they say there is one.
Indeed. Humans are "special" "made in our image."
It one of those things is a source for bemusement to me. I see it so often brought up by cretinists desperate to feel special [well, they're special, just not in a good way].
I think once I replied with something like; "You eat, sleep, shit and fuck. How are you not a part of the animal kingdom?"
