The Natural Order of Life
If the natural order of life is unfairness and chaos, why do we as humans live with unnatural principals such as harmony and and fairness in which mankind tries to create an artificial harmony when that type of life is a lie? If humans are technically animals too, then we are no different from the beasts that roam the jungles.
Why do we choose to separate ourselves from then when we are no different. We are the apex predator, we are beasts living in our concrete jungles that we call home. We bend all animals to our will so much so that we are practically able to force our own mother earth to do as we please. We are no longer the apex predator... we are the apex species of this planet. We control all aspects. We have the planet and life itself in the palm of our hands. We can choose to do almost whatever we want. Nothing occurs on this planet without our allowing it to as a species.
Why do we even allow ourselves to be held to back by thoughts that have no place in our world because that is what we live in. OUR WORLD. The rules of nature no longer apply to us. The only thing that has changed since our conception as a species is that we have moved. We have merely migrated from the nurturing cradle of Mesopotamia to all corners of the world. From there we built from the ground up. We have conquered this world, and yet we cannot conquer the thoughts that divide us as a species.
Republican, democrat, socialist, communist, none matter. We choose to be divided. Through it is the mind of the person next to you that is the last unconquered and new frontier. We as humans can realize that we are truly are our own enemies and that through our self-made division, we hold the key to the end of said division. Being our natural self.
Acting as one pleases(within reason and logic) and being themselves. This is truly the natural order of things. The imbalance that is our lives as a whole is not only imbalance, but unnatural. I challenge you to separate and challenge any question of ideology presented to you and to form your own concepts of reality, and make the world your own. This is the only true way to be free. For I tell you this, he who is told what to do and simply follows the masses and mindlessly does what is popular is not free, but a slave. A slave to themselves, a slave to the currant, and common beliefs. Who made them a slave you might ask. The answer is simply themselves. They hold themselves back. hey are like I said, their own greatest enemy. They are their own greatest enemy because they conform to these beliefs.
In our modern age, aren't you tired of putting on a mask every time you step out of your room? A mask that others feel you should put on. A mask of who you should be. I challenge you once more to be yourself. Leave all popular "trend setters" behind and form your own opinion. Be yourself. Alas I will tell you the answer to the first question I asked you. We live in a factory-created harmony of mindlessness because that is what is popular. We are no different from the beasts of the jungle, because we are the beasts. Trapped in our own jungle. What is this jungle you ask. Our minds. We are limited to the confines of our own minds.
Challenge common beliefs that your mind tells you to stick to. For it shall no longer be in charge of you. For you are your own master like humans and earth. You must control it. Look deep inside yourself and search your interests, and passions, and philosophies, even your morals and ask yourself why you have or like them. If you as a human cannot break through to this ideology of being the master of your own mind, and thus your world, then you shall never truly be free.

To answer this, we have to first ask why we are so sure what the natural order is? Perhaps it is true that, as a matter of fact, life is unfair and chaotic. But does the fact that this happens to be so, mean that this is therefore a "natural order" and not just an accident?
Additionally, there is the fact that humans, as you acknowledge, are animals, and therefore part of nature. If humans have ideas about fairness and harmony, those ideas are, therefore, natural, part of nature. So, nature does include fairness and harmony.
Lastly, you later write this:

If that is so, then it seems we shouldn't concern ourselves with any natural order. Holding both ideas, that humans should conform to a "natural order", and that humans are above nature, is contradictory.

Thoughts is what we are. There is no way not to be defined - and thereby held back - by your thoughts.
When you later write:

You are accepting limits - reason and logic. So, it makes sense to be "held back" by thoughts. They just have to be the right thoughts.

Humans are social animals though. It's natural for us to fit in and to put on masks. This doesn't have to be a bad thing. You can put on a mask at work to get through a difficult task, and then take it off at home with your family. People always try to be individuals, but people also want to be accepted. It's thanks to this desire that we are able to cooperate so well.
Don't beat yourself to death. Albert Einstein started his theory of relativity with one single badass philosophical thought: "What if the speed of light is the fastest speed anything can travel at in this universe?" The particulars of the rest of the theory just fell into place from there.
Humans exhibit characteristics that are animal-like but also quite a few that are very unlike animals.
Evolution theory has some merit in pointing out that biological history on this earth may actually match particular patterns. However, it is an unsound belief to think that the final word has been said about that. It simply never works in that way for empirical subjects.
I intuitively believe that humanity has special status. I am certainly interested in new discoveries that could shed more light on the matter.
