RE: Humans Are Not Smarter Than Other Forms Of Life, Just Different
To make it even plainer: you stripped the human of his civilization (something like stripping an ant of its colony), and said he won't survive in let's-call-them 'cat conditions'. So what I did was strip the cat of its fur, and said it won't be able to manufacture a coat (which is very simple: kill an animal and wear its coat; even a cat should be able to do that).
The fur comes attached, much like your assumptions of consciousness and intelligence. Civilization does not come attached. in fact, if everything was to vanish tomorrow it would take centuries to reach again the current level.
wrong parallelism.
