You are getting awful close to New Age doctrine. We, humans, are created in His image and thus fell from Grace and had to be saved. I don’ recall any stories of animals being forbidden from eating the fruit or being punished for doing do.
Again, find me a Bible verse that says I am wrong. Whether you like it or not God places value on His people, all people, and for anyone to choose an animal over a human is wrong. No matter how vile a person is they come before animals in the pecking order. If you don’t like it talk to God.

So because you see no stories of animals eating fruit, you think they have no souls? I'm not saying they do...I'm saying we DON'T KNOW.
I also did not say anyone had to choose animals over people....in what context are you talking about??? I see a few people who spam this kind of thread with those kind of comments. What are you talking about? Are you saying I'm evil and going to hell for taking in a homeless cat instead of a homeless person? Are you saying your student Johnnie goes home and slices up Fido because he needed socks and that's ok? Are you saying it's ok to leg trap a cat because it walked on your grass?
