well, actually I meant that if we're just discussing humans as in homo sapians, then this is a very short and rather boring conversation filled with evolutionary science (from my perspective at least).

But if we wanted to discuss human (humane?) being, then that could be open to far more interpretations.

I don't think one necessarily implies the other. But I've been wrong before. Can aliens be humane? Or are they always complete bastards? Probably just upset that their heads are so funny looking...
