Cut all the elephant’s tendons and see who wins.

Didn't you forget the part of cutting the man's tendons, too?

That doesn’t always matter. I must ask, are you not aware that I am saying that what makes a man powerful is his intellect? If you remove his ability to use it, you have removed all his power, for all practical purposes.

The whole point of my original post is rooted in the simple fact that power is not limited to what you can do only with your physical body. It has to do with how much your mind allows you to do with that body.

The mind is a massive lever. And that lever makes man the most powerful animal on the planet. Sure, the elephants body is physically more powerful than a mans, but a man’s brain allows him to build an M1 Abrams tank which will obliterate a “herd” of elephants.

Man is far more powerful. By far.
