      Intriguing question!

      Many people believe that what makes us human is the ability to have free will, i.e being able to act and determine our own future, without the future being determined for us.

      Hi Lexie,

      What makes us human is having a higher level of brain function!

      Being social or interacting with others is what makes us human – the impact of all these digital platforms such as Twitter and Facebook are evidence that humans like to talk with others and talk about things that interest us. 🙂
