^ look drgs, that instant reflex-only theory for animals has long been questioned by the most eminent ethology scientists.
For example, you could say that human thinking is based on a complex relation with the gratification/penalty rule too, like Konrad Lorenz used to talk about. but what would separate us from a dog then? don't you learn what is right (you get an A) or what is wrong (you get a D-)? What's the difference? Organically, and in terms of learning, we're no better than any other animal.
The difference is we question what we learn. But that no one has ever been able to explain.
