Are Humans Different from Animals?
Humans are part of the natural world, yet many people believe there is something unique about us. We create art and technology, build complex societies, ask deep questions about meaning, and reflect on our own existence. But are these differences truly unique?

From a biological perspective, humans are one species among many, shaped by the same natural processes as other animals. Yet some argue that human language, morality, creativity, and self-awareness suggest something there is something fundamentally different about us. Some others would argue otherwise.

So what really separates humans from animals… if anything?

This week at IQ Cafe, our speaker will introduce several different perspectives on this topic and share their own thoughts on the question. After a short introduction, we’ll break into small discussion groups where you’re invited to share your ideas and experiences in an open and respectful space.

🕒 Schedule:
8:00-8:20 - Listen to a bilingual lecture on the night's topic while enjoying snacks and coffee
8:20-9:00 - Discussion in small groups
Afterwards - Stick around and hang out with new friends!

If you have trouble, please call 080-3350-9413.

What is IQ Cafe?
IQ Cafe is a place that wants to create a space for you to think deeply.
We think it's a shame how many people go through life without reflecting on things that matter. It’s important to take the time to think about the difficult questions in life. It can be easy to live your life and just go through the motions.
