UNDERSTAND WHO WE ARE: The irony is that by focusing relentlessly on man's origin, not man's being, ID (Intelligent Design) theorists ultimately make the same error as orthodox Darwinians. In an age when biotechnology may soon allow us to redraw the biological boundaries between man and the other animals, what we need to understand is not the human beginning but the human difference. Who we are, not where we came from, is the question that matters most. -- Eric Cohen, The Human Difference, Commentarymagazine.com, December 2006
