Is not a rose a rose before it is red? At any rate, this is simply semantics. The real question is: what is human? which is a question that Heidegger is not fit to answer.

A rose is NOT a rose until it is there!! Firstly it grows into a bud then blooms into a colorful flower. Similarly, Humans are 'chosen' animals with intellect endowed by God; they first came into existence and then so they are as seen now!!Just as Everything is 'borne' by 'parents'... one just cannot get born without one, so is this Universe.
Object, subject or predicate cannot be separated without having their meanings lost.

God's got nothing to do with it.
If humans hadn't this weakness they won't be humans at all. Only this weakness gives humans the spirit and strength to live and move into action. They know 'something' is beyond their capabilities and that 'something' is above them all!! Name it whatever you may but the truth is that something, someone higher in power and control rules this universe!
