== [[Literature]] ==
* Used in ''[[Stranger in Aa Strange Land]]''. Compared to Martians, Humans are a lot dumber, more violent, and less powerful. However, with a little wisdom from Mars courtesy of Michael, Humans can become immortal, psychic, spiritually peaceful and sexually polyamorous. It's a bit of an [[Author Tract]], but not an unpleasant one.
* This trope is one of the underlying themes of ''[[Good Omens]]''.
* In the [[Malazan Book of the Fallen]] series, the Crippled God uses this as a premise for his [[Path of Inspiration|cults of salvation]]. Unfortunately, rather than delivering the message that mortals can overcome their flaws to do good, the religion is a worship of suffering and degradation.
