is also the thing that differentiates them from every other individual: their uniqueness. To return to the religious perspective, if there be a God who created us, who he created would be you and me, him and her, never us. God, the ultimate singularity, wouldn’t do species, only individuals. Indeed, would not our uniqueness constitute that image of him in which we are said to have been made? (This, by the way, would poke yet another hole in intelligent-design theory.)
