So it would seem, the only difference twixt Animal Behavior and Human Behavior is a capacity for written and spoken Language. - ---Epilogue-- According to various 'dictionaries,' the word "anthrocentric" doesn't exist. I, however, define it as the same principals of sexism, ethnocentrism, or nationalism, but applied to the perception of a validated stratification of Human Beings over the entirety of the Web of Life, rather than to simply the *** ethnicity or nationality of another. I feel the natural world around us is far more sacred than we are- although we are spawned of it. I feel it is so much more sacred due to an absent respect for it and the other beings which it hosts so well; so selflessly. We **** Sapiens Sapiens* have defiled our own sanctity via lack of respect for ourselves, let alone others Beings; Human, and otherwise. Apparently, that isn't very popular. So many Egos would rather depend on intentionally small sample sizes, while many Ids would rather self-preclude the challenge of self-observation fore a mere and fleeting (most likely destructive) comfort. I venture to say that is a present form of cowardice.

--Afterword-- So, like it or not, t'is an expression of my Self. I fell I owe it to myself to express it exactly as such. I don't think as I do for popularity; it's just who I am and what I think. Look things up. Explore ideas.
