Ken, I think Gawd has given one species a divine right to more than that. We are also given the task of spreadin' the word o' the lord. All the other birds and best of the forest are rendered into our sevice and we are given the task of managing these resources as we are rendered into the service of our lord.
That's just one interpretation of the knowledge that comes down from the ages crediting us with the common sense to to survive in a civilized and hence socialized world.
