They seem to show more compassion and humanity than most humans.

Your stance seems to operate from the premise that humans are the supreme life form on the planet. Out of curiousity, what do you see in humanity, aside from technological prowess, as justifying our deification? Did you know that dolphins also engage in sex for pleasure, not just procreation? That, along with their intelligence, suggests that dolphins are a fairly complex species. What makes humans better than dolphins? War? Hate? Greed? Politicians?
