Most people think of machines as manmade creations lacking the abilitiy to feel and think for themselves, only capable of doing what they are designed to do by their creators. As human beings we differ; we make decisions based upon our best interests. Often we are told what to do, through school, our jobs, religion and even family life, yet we have the gift of free will to do what makes us truly happy.
By definition we are machines. It is arguable that our designed function is to reproduce and carry on humanity and do nothing more, but really there is much more to our lives. Without emotions like love, happiness and even sadness there would no point in having children. We have children to love them, to give them happiness, and to gain happiness; this is where we differ from a conventional machine. We understand the true objective of life: happiness. Mechanical and molecular machines can not achieve this understanding.
