Many cultures and religions will tell you that animals have souls, and therefore, can go to heaven (wonder how their sin is judged..?)
Other cultures revered many animals, from cats to elephants and cows.
Science has shown that we are very, and I mean very close to chimp in our genetic make up and DNA.
You could say, that whether you took a creationist or scientific view, it is as if all life is kinda made up of the same essential building blocks of life, and that these are closely related, even if the species looks different to us.
How close is the DNA to that of a man over a chimp or pig..?
And yet, in many cultures, both are readily eaten.
If animals have souls, OR they share much of our DNA, are we not merely cannibals?
