I like the copyright of this company at the bottom of the message. I think I'll keep it on for awhile. About the animals not being able to reflect upon thier lives. Compared to non-human animals. I could't answer that one in disagreement. Since I relate the "soul" to some of the basic emotions. Not "souly" upon the reflection factor. I know animals have the same emotional responses as humans. And i heard that the emotional part of our brains resembles that of a cat. Since pets (dogs and cats) can love, despise, become jealous, etc. What is saying that the soul is an exclusive thing. A sort of "human" (but probably passed on from the cat). So maybe "catish" trait is that of shaking its head when disgusted with something that a human causes the animal to be upset. My cat shakes her head from side to side when she is upset. sort of "I can't believe you did that". Plus another time, I killed an insect that was crawling on the wall. But wasn't doing anything to me. She looked at me like "Why did you kill that bug?" In a sympathetic to the bug expression. Basically, I couldn't claim anything more than we learn a language to communicate. But animals do not communicate from written words or talk to you in different languages. Plus, for those that have been on the list awhile. Their was an Internet chat that AOL was promoting that you could "chat" with a real gorilla online. I think that this functionability of a primate kind of lessens the "Exclusiveness" of a soul being a human trait. But, since I can't talk with the animals. I can't deny the idea of the exclusiveness. -- We don't claim Interactive EasyFlow is good for anything -- if you think it is, great, but it's up to you to decide.
