The ability to rationalize, understand, and provide feed back in a complex form of communication.

Only we are the only Mammals that are greedy, impose self restraint by written laws, wear clothing, and drink milk past the age of infancy.

Good question, indeed. I think I can write 10-20 pages or even more rambling on this without reaching any conclusion.

Human is one who recognises that he is an animal and controls that animal behavior and tries to be like god as much as he can by being good and doing good..
