What Does Being Human Mean?

Being Human means being able to show or communicate emotion, and having deep love for another being.

Humans are a unique and amazing species. They express and communicate what they feel towards others. Whether through words or actions, people have the capabilities to tell people when we are angry or full of joy or jealous or surprised. People have a wide range of emotions while animals are left with either being happy or mad. Our brains are complex worlds of intelligence and feelings that are far greater than any other creature. Animals do not have relationships with one another, they reproduce for the sole purpose of keeping their species from becoing extinct.

Homo sapians are the only animals that can  truely love someone else. When they find that one person in life who "completes" them they are cannot imagine themselves with anyone else. Then they continue to have children and grow old together until the day they die. No other animal has that commitment to start a family and stay with them for life. That passionate love for another is a major difference between humans and other living things.

Counter:

Animals do love and care and express emotions, but in ways humans are not able to see. Not all animals leave their mate, but instead continue to bear offspring with the same partner. Although we cannot understand their language, animals are able to understand how people feel and react according to what they see.
