What does it mean to be human?

To be human you have to have humanity and be able to be empathetic towards others. Humans experience emotional bonds on a more complex and deeper level than anything else on Earth. We are able to use our imagination and abilities to invent, create, and express ourselves. We as humans can create bonds with others. Being human means you are able to interpret and make decisions as to whether or not to act on instincts. To be human you also have to have an understanding of the world and your existence. The most important thing that separates humans and animals is the possession of a conscience. When someone chooses to ignore their conscience then they are no better than an animal.
