That is, what do you think is inherent to all of mankind regardless of race, gender, or culture -- positive as well as negative? And why?

Take, for example, the college you go to.
So what class is this paper for?

what does this really mean? that we are the only "intelligent" species around?
No.
It means we go to school.
And other species don't.
Are there professors in a pride of lions? Deans among a flock of geese? Straight A students in a school of fish? Levels of degrees in the jungle? Differentfields of study/majors in the deep, blue sea?

yea that's what i meant.. like seriously.. a colony of Ants don't need to go to school to be successful.. theyre just born to do it.. so how does that make them inferior?
Who said anything about inferiority? The question was asked 'What is inherent in mankind?' I interpreted that as 'What makes mankind aspecies unique among other species?'
Not every human in the world goes to school, but in what other species does school exist?
Of all the species, extinct or current, I can only think of one that has used school.
Do you guys know of others?

Some just supress their greed more than others.

It still doesnt make school part of human nature.
There are still many primitive societies around the world. Are they not human even though they dont go to school?
Like dude said, school is a construct of society.Originally Posted by 23ska909red02

The passing of "knowledge" doesn't only exist with humans. There are plenty of animals that pass knowledge to successive generations, e.g. teaching offspring how/where to hunt, where to find water, etc.
It is a human trait to want to explain things, even if the explanation is not based in reality, e.g. humans all over the world have come up with a number of reasons as to why the Sun rises every day.
A sense of history and story telling. However I am not sure if other species do this in some capacity.
Great Apes have their way of passing life lessons down through generations. I was sitting in class half sleep a few months ago and Prof was saying somethingabout how only the chimps whose mothers used tools learned how to use tools themselves. Monkey see, monkey do I guess.. it's the same with survivingdroughts and what not.
