Ants Are Psychologically Superior To Humans
The evidence is overwhelming ants are the superior race.

Can humans survive in a microwave?

No.

Therefore ants will enslave us all.

The biomass of ants is twice that of humans. Therefore, in strict evolutionary terms, ants have been more successful than us. You could argue that we are superior because we have developed advanced technology. However, that advanced technology is likely to destroy us. Whether it is through the use of nuclear weapons, the exhaustion of energy sources, or the consequences of global warming, our technologically advanced civilisation probably doesn't have much longer to go.

When we disappear, ants will be in the prime position to take over. They will become the dominant species on the planet and will probably continue evolving till they develop advanced technology of their own. Maybe they will then be able to pore over the ruins of the world we left behind and work out what happened to us as we now ponder what happened to the dinosaurs. Maybe then they will shed a solitary ant tear for the folly that led us to our own destruction.

 Quite possible but dolphins and monkeys have a head start in the intelligence race.

Humans have actually learned military strategies from ants.

 But ants have learned nothing from us. Who's actually more intelligent?

Hm, interesting thought. We have no idea what the heck is going on in their tiny brains...but of course, if they were superior to us, then they probably would have taken over the world by now. So no, they aren't. Nice try though.

Ants don't enjoy consciousness, we do. Ants simply act out the same activities driven by instinct alone whereas we are capable of abstract thought. In the event of a sudden, significant environmental change, we are far more capable of adapting and surviving whereas they are not. We are by far the most psychologically superior.

I do not think they are, but I do think that they could be a candidate for dominate species. Them and Squirrels, Octopuses, and perhaps monkeys. Maybe monkeys. I doubt it though.

I think it's safe to say that whilst dolphins may threaten us in intelligence, ants don't. Ants show no signs of use of tools, or most other signs of intelligence.

On scale maybe but you aren't taking in the fact of size and intelligence level. Ants work together to complete a task but cannot create powerful weapons, aka nukes guns anything that can really destroy many people but only require a few to use. Proportionally to size though ants work together better then humans. Humans are also very independent so if one is mentally destroyed it doesn't mean they all are.

They're smart, but let's think: Which species has made nuclear weapons, computers, the telephone, and the lightbulb?

Psychologically our minds and brains are far superior. I was about to agree because I thought you meant physiologically. That wouldn't meant their bodies are more fit for survival and they have evolved better to be better in their environments. I think. Which they pwn us at
