Biped vs People

in #nature7 years ago

They say that we have about 7 billion people on Earth. So I have a remark about the number and the name itself. The fact is that a "person" - is a rank. Person, - because intelligent. Looking at the photo, you understand that this is the work of a bipedal creature who did not grow up to the title "homo sapiens". So, my proposal sounds like this: the population census should be conducted exclusively among people. Bipedal should just periodically recalculate.

Interesting thought. Not exactly what your getting at though.

Bipedal should just periodically recalculate.
The neocortex, now the ability to think about what your thinking about. To go from knowing, to understanding, from periodically experiencing.
