They can't even agree on what a planet is. Apparently they can't agree on what a human is, either.

OK, it seems you're smarter than them silly scientists, so maybe you can help them to decide what a planet really is.

Would you like to point out where I have said I am smart at all? I just posted what scientists said. They don't have a definition for a planet. Unless you could enlighten us and give us a scientific definition.

"Some astronomers have debated over what is a planet and whether Pluto should keep its status. The difficulty is there is no official definition and some argue that setting standards like size limits opens the door too wide."
