Kay, here goes.. *Sighs*
Right, just this afternoon at my business communication class, I found myself thinking, "Some people say humans are apes. In one way, they are right. In another, they are wrong. Some people say Autista are human. In one way, they are right, and another, they are wrong, and for exactly the same reasons." (Dammit, how do you use italics in this?)

Then I started thinking whether I was taking this the wrong way, I mean: Sure, humans suck, they're bigoted, emotional, illogical, homicidal maniacs; but why do I feel myself superior to them? If I used my abilities to make them suffer, what is to seperate me from the people who use their thoughts of revenge (For real or imaginary wrongdoings) to waste their lives in a swarm of hatred, of carnage?

I dunno, I'm posting this now, cause it'll take a while to get a grounding to think this through, and once I've started, no-ones gonna sway my opinions.

Query: What do you guys think?

I don't know, it's a line of thought I've wandered down myself on occasion, but I still haven't come up with a satisfactory conclusion, I guess we'll both have to keep considering the matter...

Are you a fan of Baldurs Gate, or does Haerdalis mean something else?
To use italics you [i ]italicized[/i ] no spaces.

i like how you said "them" about humans as if you are not one :D
you want to use your "superiority" to make "them" suffer? then thinks that makes you like "them" as if being "them" is a bad thing? (while implying "they" would do this)
a monkey is less like a normal person then an aspie. monkeys r social. monkeys jerk off in public. monkeys eat dirt and bugs out of each others hair. monkeys sometimes even bite off each others testicles.
so yeah, monkeys kick ass!
