Oh, don’t say that, Else! People listen to you.
This is exactly the kind of idea my predecessor had about our existence, but what it justified to her was …
It’s not reasonable to expect that a soldier and a farmer will behave the same; nor is it reasonable to expect a human and a slaver hound to obey the same rules. If we’re something only once-human, we don’t have to follow human rules, either.
Then, also, it’s never a good idea to let humans define you as being something other than human. Humans have enough trouble feeling a kinship even with other humans if they happen to be from other peoples and places.
You see why this is a problem? We can argue definitions, but definitions are mobile, words and stories are adaptable, and defining ourselves outside the circle of humanity is likely to get a lot of people hurt. Likely including us.
