Well, there you have a point. The lesson I draw from it is that any kind of superiority is just an illusion. As we progress in the ladder of evolution, we run into new problems to solve. Sometimes, our own successes seem to generate new obstacles. It's a bit like getting to a higher level in a video game. You have more points, but the game also becomes harder to play.
