We Are Human

[dominoSALUTEM]

I find it funny they use the Lord's prayer in swahili as background music, and spread lies saying while saying we come from monkeys and that we discovered everything. I find this funny and disturbing at the same time. GOD ROCKS!!!!

[JetAge96]

@dominoSALUTEM

you are creationist your place is in church not on internet

[JetAge96]

@dominoSALUTEM

watch?v=Tmut6FBx4xk

you have no idea what this song sings about

and yes we did come from monkeys

and no earth is not flat

where i come from church supports science an aproves everything science says

[CPfanism]

The idea that we can even acknowledge our faults is a testament to how amazing we are.

[bgfreek]

YOU AND I ARE DIFFERENT? perfect, come we have much to share.

[bgfreek]

@KazigluTepes I admire what you said. I personally think that the governments are to blame for a lot, its a sin to humanity if you sit in a room arguing which party is correct when you have so many other problems. i feel like a new generation needs to go in and we the people need to decide as a nation and as humans where we stand. I hope i make bank after college because i promise you all, i will help to my last penny, and then until my last breath. my children will live on a better planet.

[oneNonly1fullofsome]

it is supposed to be we are human, but why the obvious American bias.

[JetAge96]

@oneNonly1fullofsome

we are humans

does it really matter where we live?

[anamarvelo]

if i could pick one vidoe to show aleins this whould be it

[JetAge96]

@anamarvelo

me to

[kuroshashu]

:' )

[LuisRC91]

my favorite part is the space footage :) cause you know, dam we came from being wild monkey like creatures to actually defy gravity

[LuisRC91]

This video is the best on all of YouTube!!!!!!!!!!!!

[TheVideonator16]

Wow. Truly a stunning video. Thank you very much.

[dasmysteryman12]

Nice video...

Anyway, I believe in the power of the human spirit. Like as the video said, "We can do anything, as long as we try". Yes, humankind has screwed up the enviroment but we have something that other species don't have: the ability to solve problems. With our intelligence, we can make the world a better place. It doesn't matter what belief system or ideology you have, what matters is that we should work together to build a better future.

[onelowerlight]

I notice there's nothing about religion in this video. Finding and knowing God is not considered one of mankind's defining accomplishments?

[arturopablo]

@onelowerlight yeah that's the magical part, the song that's played it's the baba yetu (the lord's prayer) so I think religion it's implicit in the video having a prayer as background sound, I'm not a christian myself but I recognize religion as one of the great accomplishments of mankind. Regards

[JakeSchoby]

Why was big foot smashing some bones? completely random video.

[jeleuri]

Apart from smashing each others' heads for resources, we're pretty nice people. :)

[KazigluTepes]

Yeah, I agree ^_^

The thing people leave out in history is the advances that have been made. And...it's often a very small amount of individuals that cause such terror, horror, and war. Look where we are today. We are the brink of finding cures cancers. Cancer! It's probably the most complex and horrible disease we know of, and yet...now we're beginning to conquer it.

Just don't forget to remember the bad with the good. People always forget that. Even Nazi Germany did *some* good.

[thest3alth]

Indeed. I don't want to seem like a racist, Satan's spawn or a killer or anything evil, but from any evil sprouts good. Nazi Germany was defeated, showing the world that they needed to stick together to survive, thus creating the European Union, who have kept the peace in Europe since.

Communist Russia sprouted the North Atlantic Treaty Organisation which has kept peace in the North Hemisphere since.

In total, Nazi Germany gave us a common enemy, a chance to forget our history and unite.

[KazigluTepes]

Aye, that's true. There is no evil without good, and no good without evil. People too often focus on only one side of a history, and forget the other...just as people focus solely on the horrible atrocities of Nazi Germany, and forget about anything good that it did or that might have resulted form it.

Well, I'm glad to see people here who can appreciate mankind. As with everything, with the evils we do comes good. And that good is something we should not forget.

[JakeSchoby]

tell that to the people who survived the holocaust.

[KazigluTepes]

But you must recognize that Nazi Germany did not cause ALL bad. It strengthened the German economy. that was a good thing.

The Holocaust was not one of the (few) good things it did. It was horrible.  And yes, i will tell a survivor of the Holocaust that Nazi Germany did some sort of good somewhere, however small. Nothing is ever just good or evil, and nothing is ever just black and white.

[JakeSchoby]

Some of the great medical achievements that they achieved was by cruel fatal experimentations of prisoners, jews, and of other people of diffrent race and status. So the question is: should one be involuntarily sacrificed for man's ultimate greater good? My opinion: No. I believe in other alternatives. It may not be effective. But I feel that is the right choice. Of course this is an unfair statement that can be twisted around...its a question that we face today. It is something to consider.

[JakeSchoby]

And yes, I do like the fact that German economy was helped during this crisis...no I do not like the fact that millions of lives were lost during war and genocide.

[Deripla]

Questo non è un tributo all'umanità.

E' solo un'esaltazione dell'America, pure fatta male.

L'unica cosa carina è la scimmia che spacca le ossa. Almeno quella non ha la bandiera americana stampata sul petto.

Ritirati, che i video non li sai fare.

[airnoble]

CHORUS Your kingdom come, your will be done On Earth as it is in Heaven. (Amen) CHORUS Give us this day our daily bread, Forgive us of our trespasses As we forgive others Who tresspass against us Lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from Evil, and you wake the dead Our Father, Jesus who art... Hallowed be thy name. These are the words from this song translated from Swahili...

[Peacekeeper76]

Mankind. Born of earth, under the yellow sun of Sol. First evolved as a hunter gatherer, but man soon found the earth to be a better provider.

[riccho86]

Just listen to the silence of the universe. Just look around. There is an endless cold space everywhere. Life is a wonder itself, but with intelligence, and with developing technology human being is something special. It doesn't matter, whether you believe in God or not,we have to appreciate life, intelligence and tecnology.

[KazigluTepes]

I agree. Well said. How can we argue over this? Why can we not just marvel at all of it, at life, at the human being, at humanity itself, and at our achievements, even our failures? Is it not wondrous that we have even been able to do so many things?

[KazigluTepes]

I am quite frankly amazed at the idiocy and ignorance of many people here...such immaturity as well. This is not an argument that can be solved by a "your mom" joke. All of this argument over who is right is a big part of the problem that are being argued about. Honestly, just open your eyes and look at both sides for once. Yes, we are ruining the Earth in some ways, but we are also making progress, advancing to hopefully become a better civilization. And yet either can be ignored.

[KazigluTepes]

And as to those people that are refuting arguments simply because they are written by high school students, take note that i am only in the 10th grade, and I have note used a single immature joke or idiotic principle to make my point.

[KazigluTepes]

And as to the video, it's very nice. A very good testament to what we as a species have done.

[KazigluTepes]

neither* can be ignored. pardon my typing.

[wheelchairassassin]

We are human and we kill ourselves in new and interesting ways every day. Yay.

[dacowboys81]

Why is every one hating on humans? I mean after all we are all human, and so far no matter what all you say we are the most intelligent creators ever to live on this earth ( a testament to this is the fact that I am typing this on a computer. Sure we make mistakes but look at the beauty we create. Look at what we have mastered and learned. With out us the universe would be an even darker colder place.

[csmustain]

There once was a time when the entire human race used renewable resources, had minimal pollution, bought locally produced goods, and kept industry to a minimum...it was all of history prior to the Industrial Revolution! And then we GOT RID OF THAT WAY OF LIFE as quickly as we could! It's called "progress" :)

btw, average human life expectancy has more then doubled in industrialized countries.

[teoevy]

we also poison the earth, in turn poison ourselves. we think we are superior top all animals. we cause extinctions, enslave animals in zoos. we belong to the earth. the earth doesn't belong to anyone. hail to mother earth.

[gibbyrockerhunter]

fuckin lib

[teoevy]

take your dick out of your sister and buy yourself some education, dumbass.

[gibbyrockerhunter]

oh, OK. Hail MOTHER EARTH. de, de, de....

oh ya, hail Hitler and Osamo also. wait, i mean Hillary and Obama.

RRIIIGGGGHHHTTTTT.

Enslave animals? WTF? lets free all the chickens in the slaughter houses, yah. then the dumb libs can arrange the worlds largest circle jerk.

better yet, just arrange a mass suicide and do us all a favor.

just one question. buy some education? wow, here in America, education is taught. wherever your from they probably pronounce it Ed-juwwa-cation. right?

[teoevy]

you are obviously still in high school. hence your age and the language used in your argument. you cannot even have a decent argument without sounding like a total dipshit. you keep claiming i am a dumb lib.(hmmm) Apparently you seem to enjoy breathing in chemicals that are going to kill you(pollution). I think you are a drug baby. you sound like you were exposed to chemicals prenatally (look it up, i do no expect you to know that either).

[teoevy]

Read a book or two about the effects of pollution and issues around war then talk.

you obliviously don't have any idea on the topic on environmental impacts people like you around have on earth. i bet you want your kids, to wallow in a ton of plastic waste. read first then post a comment or else you will sound like a dumbass.(you kinda already did).

[dacowboys81]

You sound full of your self. Dont worry be happy :)

[gibbyrockerhunter]

I "keep claiming you're a dumb lib". you dumb lib, I only called you that once until know. as a mater a fact yes, I love pollution, I drive an 85 chevy with 400hp and about 12 miles to the gallon. De de de

you want to talk about immature? "your fat mom" that's mature...

Believe it or not, ya I think pollution is a problem(you dumb fuck for assuming stuff). my original comment towards you was about your hatred for the human race.

[gibbyrockerhunter]

The only argument you have is calling me pro pollution, and saying I know nothing, and that im in high school(your just like sherlock). maybe you should go back to high school and work on your English. Im not saying im good at it or anything, but you brought it up.

Just out of curiosity do you know how dumb you sound when you talk about peoples moms, or say "hail to mother earth"? Just wonderin.

[gibbyrockerhunter]

It sounds like you just need to CHILL, thank GOD for this earth, do what you can to HELP IT, not sound like a DIP, and LOVE LIFE.

[teoevy]

LOL!!!!!

[gibbyrockerhunter]

what? no mom jokes?

[Edward2616]

Apparently you dont like liberals, please go argue somewhere else you both sound pretty immature in my experience. By the way i loved the video excellent that someone noticed Canada by using the CN tower

[urnman89]

Forget the Earth. TO MARS!!!! JK

[teoevy]

Humans save yourselves, save the earth. boycott synthetic products, recycle, by local, ride a bike. wise up!

[teoevy]

we also create pollution, global warming, cased mass extinctions, breed to 7 billion. we are like parasites on mother earth. thing about humans is we thing we are superior than any other life form, while at it we forget we depend on them for our survival. we belong to the earth and the earth doesn't belong to us.

[gibbyrockerhunter]

right, like parasites we should be exterminated. lets all arange a mass suicide. YOU FIRST dumb shit

[teoevy]

your fat mom will be first, then you.

[ReimsE]

Glory to the human race! We are the greatest lifeform ever walk the Earth, and are the greatest life in all existence - I wish for nothing but our continued glory in the future!

[KptHirni]

The World was better without humans,sorry but this is the true : (

[sens45]

"you can't be successful until you try" and human civilisation has certainly tried as hard as possible to achieve success and they indeed have

[sens45]

the music reminds me of the Lion King =)

[Randolia]

Just on the war comment, yes, humans fight wars, and yes, they are generally bad, some unneccesary, but we are not the only species to do it, tribes of chimps and other higher vertabrates wage war on other tribes of their species for land or resources, or even a monkey of the opposite sex, lol, weird, but true and documented.

[YoussairianLegend]

WOW....AWESUM vid! Baba Yetu ROX!!

5/5

[toughredneckotaku]

We have come a very long way, but there is still a very long way to go.

[SU1C1DAL1D1OT]

In order for there to be balance, order, freedom, and security there must be chaos, disorder, slavery, death, battles must be fought, heroes must risk their lives so that peace can continue and freedom can endure, and safety is secured for every man, woman, child, animal, insect, and every living creature.

[SU1C1DAL1D1OT]

First of all you guys, your using youtube, so you must like technology and human ingenuity somewhat. And, also, if you dont like the way things are run, or just want to do something of epic proportions that will benefit humanity and all of earth in some way possible, I suggest you get off your ass and do it. When wars start, where are you? You're here,complaining on youtube.

[yintendo]

"if we try, we can do anything"...and we do. we feel we have the right to cause other living sentient beings needless torture for our own selfish gain. we are humans. we are speciests. and yes, we fought wars. should this be something to be proud of? so that's what we should teach. have pride in killing people! yay!!!!

[teabowbraine]

we are idiots that cant see the truth. we watch trashy tv we believe what are leaders tell us. we are useless. type in the disclosure project to find out where we get are technology from.

[ronan32]

we are all human yet we persist on having wars with our own brothers..we are all the same, when we die we all experience the same event whatever it may be..if there is a god he is everyones god..so why do we have different faiths and why do we insist on destroying each other

[d3athbRinger]

long story short we wont just give up we will go down gloruisly

[d3athbRinger]

part 2 soz my comp crapped out now um ye we will destroy make freinds again again and again but then we have 2 face the suns death leading 2 us being gone 4 ever we need 2 prepare 2 find other planets we must look we r discoverers if we find an alien nation they will fear us so we can make the first freindly jesture then we can start building a better civalasation

[d3athbRinger]

hey u know wat sucks wer alone 4 now in the darkness of time the closest thing 2 intelingence we have r monkeys WOOOOOOOOO OUR COUSINS im sorry bout the out burst now wer was i... oh ye monkeys we kill them

[wearedefiant]

I've Completely Lost My Train Of Thought Because I Commented That A Month Ago...Erm...Shit.

[SpaceMonkey27rdogg]

I love it, I wont more of this in the world less talk of tarror. This is the way we should be lookin at things, not tryin to kill eachother but just makin things better. Great Video, You'v made me a fan.

[orasis]

Well done.. for some reason this song always reminds me of Julius and Octavian Caesar hehe.

[Rhinano]

this is amazing! well done :)

the war bit was a bit too long (because there is too much war) but the video was great, and I love Baba Yetu.

[jailhouserocker6240]

i saw this on another movie it is so dumb-

this is a true thing that happens! its not a chain letter! its kinda scary at first but it really works!! paste this message into 3 comments and press ALT F4 and your crushes name will appear on the screen!!! its soo wierd!

[CEvideo]

Really good selection of clips. Overall a good educational video.

[CartoonishLove]

that was pretty cool. liked the song, it fit well

[Claxnasty]

Good video and awesome song. A little unfortunate that the Mushroom Cloud is the main picture. It looks like the video's saying. "We made nukes! Look how awesome we are!" when after watching it, is clearly not the point.

[wearedefiant]

It Does Show The Power Of Humanity. So Powerful That We Can Destroy Ourselves. That Just Shows That Even In All Our Splendor We're The Same. The Same Animal But With Bigger Weapons And More And More Ways To Kill Each Other Or Any Other Species (Extraterrestial Life Included) We Ever Encounter.

But Hey ! WE KICK ASS !

Remember It's In Mankind's Nature To Kill And Destroy.

[ronan32]

its not in our nature to kill and destroy..its in our nature to survive...thats where you got it all twist my friend.

[wearedefiant]

And to survive you kill and destroy the competition =P

[ronan32]

if we are all human and all the same what competition do we have..your statement is stupid..we are already surviving why destroy anything.

[wearedefiant]

The human race is in competition with each other, it always has been it always will be. The same way other tribes kill each other in the animal kingdom we do it via war.

[ronan32]

some human tribes are in competition with others yes..they like to enslave and destroy other countries...not every country thinks of world domination..only the evil ones do.

[wearedefiant]

That pretty much leaves the conquered. Nowadays no one thinks of that but look back in history basically everyone wanted an empire. Including the Americans. Some took it by force or like Britain they took it via trade (at first), it isn't really evil wanting more power...just natural human expansion of their own influence.

[j037j038]

Like the US?
