reason and humans

Descartes' Introduction to Method says, ``Insofar as reason or common sense is the only thing that makes us human and distinguishes us from animals.''

 There were similar descriptions in other famous books from modern Western Europe. I forget who it was, but I remember thinking that at the time.

 There may be a need to separate humans from animals, but there is no way that rationality is a characteristic unique to humans.
