We are very advanced but not very invincible. Huge difference.

I'm not so sure about that anymore. We have a lot of people that think socialism will finally work this time.

You haven't been watching the goings on since 11-8-2016, animals are smart enough to stay out of the streets and avoid fires. A lot of humans are not smart enough to do the same.

How can you really know that tho? Maybe we just all appear smart bc we are really too stupid to realize otherwise.

We are the only highly developed species to engage in interspecies war. War accelerates natural selection by eliminating the weak at a faster rate than merely depending on the environment to do it. This, in turn, accelerates our rate of evolutionary advance.
We are not great in spite of our propensity for violence; our propensity for violence is what has made us great.

How smart are we though. We are sitting here posting on a message board while other animals are out having wild meaningless sex. They will knock up the female and just leave them to do the child rearing. Yet we are posting on a messge board. So who is the smart one?

Because Homo sapiens were smart enough to kill off Homo neanderthalensis.

Is that a serious question?

i'm not sure the OP is more advanced, but the correct answer is we aren't animals.

Literally the correct answer.
By eating cooked meat, it made our brains bigger.

Ants can farm and they collectively outweigh all land mammals combined. Are we more advanced than they are? They're an incredibly successful species on a level we haven't achieved.
