soul is the software that runs the body hardware, so defenitely animals also have soul! animals have outdated softwares, but then they are OS all right!
Do you mean soles? The ones they put into the shoes? If thats the question, the answer is NO. If your talking about soul's, the answer is YES/NO idk..
I believe that animals have souls because they have feelings just like humans. They can be hurt, they can feel pain, they can mourn, they can be lonely. We are just a more evolved animal. We as humans would like to think that animals have no soul because we can justify our treatment of other animals. We can also rejoice in thinking that we are superior because we hold the exclusive rights of having a soul. In some earlier cultures, mainly those who practiced the religion of Animism believed that all things had souls right down to a rock. If they were right, imagine how a rock feels when you kick it or throw. Hmm, interesting food for thought.
Animals do have souls but no spirit. The Kingdom of God is spiritual and animals are excluded from that one; Soul represents live. The soul is in the blood as the scriptures say.
probably true! but then life and conciousness is not the same thing, so if animals are not concious they won't have soul!
Do you think that an animal is conscious of itslef? If you have ever had a dog, cat, or even a horse there can be no doubt that they are conscious. They also have very distinct personalities.
That will be hard to do .... I heard this from a friend a couple of years ago and i believe him because he always goes to church But i will try to find out and let you know
Genesis 9:1-4 reads (take note of verse 4): 9 And God went on to bless Noah and his sons and to say to them: “Be fruitful and become many and fill the earth. 2 And a fear of YOU and a terror of YOU will continue upon every living creature of the earth and upon every flying creature of the heavens, upon everything that goes moving on the ground, and upon all the fishes of the sea. Into YOUR hand they are now given. 3 Every moving animal that is alive may serve as food for YOU. As in the case of green vegetation, I do give it all to YOU. 4 Only flesh with its soul—its blood—YOU must not eat. Col
I believe animals have brains that aren't as intelligent as ours. No souls involved, animal or human. When people talk about souls I believe they're talking about morality, which can be explained by our social oriented evolution. The same goes for other animals too. Either way, when certain parts of the brain are damaged people will act "souless", it's obvious those parts of the brain control the way we respond to others. The soul is a poetic idea that allows us to simplify morality, but semantics aside, I don't think it has any part to play in the real world.
I don't think that being alive constitutes having a soul. Personality is not synomonous with having a soul. but if movies have taught us anything, all dogs go to Heaven
they feel pain as us do they fear death as us do they protect their offspring as us do they have nasty sex as us do No meat for me
