There is no argument, animals are animals and humans are humans. Look around, do you see animals driving cars, reading and writing books, curing diseases, conteplating the why's and the why nots, is there a God? Is there not a God? Animals do not do this. Humans were never anything other than humans. "Keep the change, ya'filthy animal!"

That's not an explanation, that's a restating of your original position that you have yet to demonstrate as true.

Yes. The only animals that I see doing such things are humans, though. Sorry, but the classification of "animal" does not include "does not drive cars, read or write books, cure disease and contemplating the whys and why nots, etc.

Animals do not do this. Humans were never anything other than humans.

Animals do this because humans are animals and humans do this. You're just trying to switch around the definition of "animal" because you want humans to be "special" and given a classification of their own. Sorry, biological classifications are not made based upon what makes you feel good. If you are insisting that a sixth life classification be made, you will need better justification than "we contemplate!"
