| Here's how. It's an animal. Get over it. It has no rational thought or emotion, it's all adaptation and instinct. |

| Animal, as in a common term for non-humans. Humans are different, we actually transcend common animal primal instinct, and develop emotions and rational thought. |

@xtream once again, your TERRIBLY WRONG!!!
just because other animals aren't quite as devoloped as humans doesn't mean they don't have feelings to, only a true jerk wouldn't see that!
other animals can feel pain. other animals can be depressed/sad. other animals can be happy or sad or sleepy or any bloody emotion! |

You know, I could post about how animals don't have souls and wouldn't go to heaven
but that would make you more depressed and/or hate me
and it would kick up a huge flamewar over religion
it's also something only a jerk would do |

Animals have no intellectual thought, therefore they only produce slight emotion. Yes I love them and yes its sad when one dies, but seriously, they have no conscience nor understanding of life so therefore it meant nothing to them other then instinct and survival.
Therefore I think it is terrible to see a loved pet die, but it should be easily overcome with the joy for the rest of the kingdom (of animals).
Don't think I haven't a heart.
My puppy died a while back and I loved him ): |

My dog died and I was crushed.
But then I remember that she had no soul
and then I feel worse
But then I remember she lacks intellectual thought
and then I felt better |

in my thought, other animals are actually better than most humans. they only fight over territory and for food. they kill other animals to survive. they adapt to their natural enviorment rather letting that enviorment adapt to them, and there are surely other things that would make humans seem like the worst animals to be with.
BTW, animals surely can think, they have a brain of course, they probably think "gee i'm starving what's going on?" and "oh my god why is my owner on the floor! wake up wake up oh god PLEASE wake up!" and they have many other thoughts too, probably, like when they are abused and tortured they could be thinking,"what did i ever do? why are you hurting me? wheres me food and home?"
and if animals didn't have souls, how would we be alive since we are also animals? how would they even be alive? |

And you have obviously not read much about dolphins nor monkeys.
A male monkeys will EAT a female monkey's children, just so he can screw her.
Dolphins will kill for fun. They will kill each other, for fun. They have raped humans in the past. |

also, by the way, other animals probably think we lack intelectual thought.
they probably think time is stupid. time only exists in our minds after all, and they probably think we're total morons for poluting things.
i bet atleast 50% of animals don't understand what we do, and we don't understand some of what they do either. |

...You're one of those PETA people aren't you?
It's fairly obvious they don't think the same way as you or I.
We've ran tests on that sort of thing. They run on instinct (for the most part) alone.
Few animals actually have the capability to problem solve.
I doubt they even know what polluting is, and they probably wouldn't get how it affects them, and they most definitly wouldn't be able to connect that we were doing it. |

Only humans have souls because we're the only animal God put souls into.
For the sake of not starting a religious flamewar, let's drop the soul thing.
plus
the word soul is starting to look weird |

You don't get depressed because your pet died. I do not think you know what depressed means.

| The way animals think varies a huge amount, but imagine it like thinking in pure emotion. Animals don't have the type of language to quantify the world around them, and they don't have abstract thought. But they do have emotions, personalities, and social orders. |

| I decided to give up on this because I could see that moonlight was an, how do I put this lightly, a complete idiot. But anyways, for the sake of making a point, no, animals other than humans do not have emotion or rational though. Emotion they show is merely adaptive properties. I'm not a jerk for saying this, i'm rational. Deal with it. |
