The state of being human. Humankind. I know what it is, but I'm no good at defining things like this.

The sense that we are all the same and an understanding of each other's basic needs and rights.

Humanity has different denotative and connotative meanings. Humanity can imply fallibility, the sum total of human existence, being compassionate or empathetic, and many other things; this question is not easily answered.

I'm not good at these questions.

All the humans and their achievements.

It has 2 meanings, that come to mind:

1. All humans, taken as a whole.

2. The quality of people to be kind, supportive of each other (humane).

A mix of dumb, average, smart people; mix of good inbetween, evil people.

Humanity is war. Humanity is factories pumping out pollution into the air and the ocean. Humanity is elephants balancing on one foot on a tiny stool in a circus. Humanity is children playing violent video games. Humanity is, unfortunately, nothing to be proud of. But here we are.

The nature homo sapiens are inclined to; what that is exactly depends on the context.

"Seat thyself sultanically among the moons of Saturn, and take high abstracted man alone; and he seems a wonder, a grandeur, and a woe. But from the same point, take mankind in mass, and for the most part, they seem a mob of unnecessary duplicates, both contemporary and hereditary." -"Moby Dick", Herman Melville

It's a term we apply to "us" and deny "them".

Humanity is caring about another person or just having the heart to help somebody who is not so fortunate

Some would say humanity is merely a state of existing, but it's surely more complicated than that. Humanity is the flawed and imperfect part of reality that conincides with the beauty of human nature.

*poker face*
I didn't study last night.
When a group of humans, on planet earth, get together and have a pot luck. Everyone has a great time, no one picks on any one else, everyone has a happy belly and the time seems like it never ends. A great time is had by all.

A crazy notion that other people actually matter and especially strangers of other ethnic backgrounds.

"Oh the Humanity!" (When the Hindenburg burned and crashed) is always the first thing I think of.
Humanity is too complex for me to elucidate all the implications in a single sentence.
