I prefer to wait until they're nine years old and can shred like Neil Schon.

actually you can know if animals have souls or not. The answer to that question is yes they do, but not in the sense that you may be thinking. Your soul is what allows you to sense and interact with your physical surroundings utilizing the body. What animals don’t have is a spirit, which is an aspect given to mankind along with a body and soul. This is by most people confused with the soul itself but is really an entirely different entity. God made man tripartate in nature(spirit,soul, body) which is the ideal behind being made in His image and after his likeness. In this mankind is completely unique above all creation. He has the ability to interact with the physical world and also the spiritual. The soul acts as a medium between the two and it’s this function which causes people to mistakenly consider the spirit and soul as the same thing. Your soul is your will, mind, emotions,senses, intelligence. Your spirit is that part of you which makes you aware that there is more to your existence than just the physical. It is also that part of you which communes or desires to commune with GOD. This is the part of man which was initially “died” after Adam’s sin and from that point Adam and Eve became more intune with their physical realm aand their “soul” became the servant of sin and thus a servant of the flesh (body). This is why we spend so much time trying to satisfy it. The soul is actually suppose to act as a servant to the spirit, working in conjunction with and under subjection to the spirit as we seek GOD and His will. It how we are to worship Him and it is in this functioning of the spirit and soul that we are to be in subject to GOD the Holy Spirit as we worship the King of Kings and Lord of lords. It is this proper functioning of the spirit and soul that is often referred to in GOD’s Word as a living soul, a being who can think, reason, learn,interact, choose, not choose, understand that life has purpose, deny that it has purpose, etc. These are things animals can not and do not do. Animals can discern that something is wrong and that death is to be avoided, but if you’ve ever seen animal examining another dead animal that is let’s say it’s relative, the animal’s reaction is that of confusion(not mourning as some think) after which the animal either moves on or eats it. Anyway I’ve posted enough on this.

De nada, chica.

P.S. Your kitty is a mutant - he has three ears!

I think I will skip this explanation in SS class and kind of hang with soul for now. My kids have a hard time wrapping their heads around differences between symbolic and literal in some verses, this would hurt.

In other news, three California teens were in custody for stealing wildlife from a secure USDA Quarantine facility. All three are being held in the Orange County Jail’s Medical facility and will be receiving Rabies shots for the next 30 days.

understandable, but don’t sell them short. I had this age group at one time as well and taught them about the difference once I understood it. They caught on rather well.

If they did the Bible would be in dog translation as well. Animals were not created in His image.

So you speak for God now, do you? How do you know whether or how he may communicate with other beings?

I'll bet you are real proud of yourself for spreading such a horrid viewpoint to those girls. Did you ever think that maybe the belief that one day one might be reunited with a deceased pet provides some comfort to the owner? No, of course not.

I recite His Word as written in the KJV or NIV.

I find it amusing that you equate pride to this issue and try to make this some conspiracy to deceive. I neither cared or not how it made me feel personally, I was relating God’s Word as I have read it. Again quote me a verse where I am wrong and I’ll recant forthwith, otherwise maybe you should read for meaning instead of subjectively putting your spin on things and telling me I am wrong for the same.

If that is a source of their comfort for their hopes in the hereafter then they need more teaching about what comfort believers will get when He returns and what they need to do to prepare.

Thank you for reminding me why I don't go to church.

How sad for you. I rectify everything I say with Scripture. If you can find a verse disputing what I have said show me and I’ll retract my statement.

Give it up darlin’,
Whatever you say will be met with extreme smugness and “I got GOD on my side” rebuts.... IOW, they can’t hear you cuz their halo dun fell over their ears.

I don’t go to church for the same reasons you don’t :)

No need. I’m not the kind of person who thinks everyone should believe exactly as I do.

Very interesting....that’s right....soul and spirit are separate. I can’t say I agree that animals can’t learn, mourn, think...and some other things ..because I think they can. But, thanks for your insight....I enjoy reading stuff like this.

I shocked my high school Sunday School class ( just the girls ) the other day by telling them that animals ( their pets ) have no souls and we men have dominion over them to do as we see fit.

They were not happy to hear that Fluffy won’t be resurrected.

You're certainly one of those folks that attend church 8 days a week and can quote every line of the Bible. Kudos.

You're also a creep.

Great birthday gift, this music video. =^..^=

Could be a takeoff on the famous “peaceful kingdom” passage from the Bible.
=^..^=

PS: Was taken out for lunch today for birthday, and the early spring temps are going up slowly. =^..^=
