[QUOTE="Margonme, post: 1356753, member: 25776"] Gotcha, too. I appreciate your feelings. I need some of my possessions in order to fulfill my obligations - caring for my property and animals. Most of my possessions are a PITA. As an atheist, I put the same value on an animal as a man because they are both living creatures equal in the context of creations of the forces of the Universe. That bothers some people but I cannot help that. My dog is with me 24/7. Our lives are in synchronization. She knows my moods, I know hers. Just because she is not as intelligent as the average person, I don't place her below them. Edit to add: Under the law, animals are not afforded equal status with humans. Humans deserve considerations that animals do not enjoy. Cattle are produced in our society for food. These things don't bother me. I sell my cattle for food. My statement above is better explained by saying, " I don't make a difference between animals and humans based on the premise that man has a soul. If I were faced with saving my son or my cows, my son wins or any other human, although that might stretch my limits. :) [/QUOTE]
