Mankind is creative as an elaborate natural defense for Earth-based lifeforms as a ruse so that when the advanced alien races come to judge us we'll be saved by the defense of "But they have art". And then when they least expect it, we'll slaughter them all because we're vicious bastards...just like chimpanzees and dolphins.
That's why the dinosaurs died out - they didn't have some kinda art so when the aliens came they were judged unworthy and received an asteroid to the face.
