Many responses misrepresent what is meant by superior.

Superiority is not used to mean better in all aspects.

The argument is that the ASD aggregate of traits is better (superior) than the NT aggregate of traits.

Be aware that this is a NINE year old thread ripped from its tomb only hours ago by a NT troll.

Ok Thanks.

It's interesting to me, because I know people who think dogs are superior to humans.

George Carlin, in one of his videos, points out the ways that dogs are superior too.
