[Marsha to Platt]
No doubt about it, I like human life! And I do appreciate individual
experiences, and I agree with you human experiences are of a unique
and special kind.
[Arlo]
Just to be clear, I never said the properties of human life were not
"unique". But, I think our "uniqueness" in the animal world is not
because "we can respond to DQ and nothing else can", but because our
possibility in response is so much larger, involving (very complex)
social and intellectual responses, that are not possible among less
complex biological patterns.
DQ will get a dog and a woman off a hot stove, but the woman can
later invent all kinds of "marvelous analogues" to describe and
relate this experience.
[Marsha]
Without human consciousness, no gravity, no quantum
mechanics, no Giant, no ZMM &LILA, no Velazquez paintings, no Arlo,
well, the missing patterns would be endless.
[Arlo]
Without human consciousness, you would be unable to "miss" anything. ;-)
