tony: My other thought/question is, could the answer be as simple as free will? Animals are slaves to their instincts in a way that humans are not(entirely). Could that one subtle but profound difference be responsible for all the others?-The issue for the materialists always comes back to the mind as a slave of the neurons: no free will, just the illusion of it. My answer is it is a powerful illusion or it is real, and I chose real.
