I'm pretty proud that we have made it this long with nuclear weapons without a total meltdown.

By definition, achievement is "something accomplished, by superior ability, special effort, great courage, etc." Mortality needs none of our ability, effort or courage to exist. The fact that we die regardless of our own efforts proves that. Thus, it is certainly not an acheivement, but If you called it our greatest gift, I could agree. The question of a deity's jealousy starts a whole new thought. Jealousy being a human characteristic humanizes the deity and lowers the bar. Are we disussing a creator or a chemical reaction? And really - will we ever know enough facts to have a true discussion about that entity? Just a thought...

What human race?
According to the Dictionary, Race is "one of the major zoological subdivisions of mankind, regarded as having a common origin and exhibiting a relatively constant set of physical traits, such as pigmentation, hair form, and facial and bodily proportions
There is no such thing as the "Human Race". Humans are a "Species", a race is a sub-division of a species (White/European, Black, Asian, etc..).
Each race has their own greatest achievements, some greater then others, so you would have to be more specific on what actual race you are talking about for me to give an answer.

Electricity!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AC and DC. I mean look at everything that we have today. Either electricity has sped up the process of making it, or we use it to do things. Computers, cars, cooking, with the push of a button we have heat and cold, or vibrations (cheap motel beds). LOL Hmm the list is endless....

we don't have to justify it. It is what it is. We didn't bring ourselves into being. We just found ourselves here. Ontology justifies us.
