it appears that some nutjobs on here believe people and animals are equal.

Well I think we are superior to animals we are smarter and can do things that dogs can't do.
people are Animals - mammals in fact.. actually we are primates...
as such we are not superior or inferior... just different...
some would say we are inferior because we have altered our environment and stuff rather than lived with it.. that we are unable to survive without stupid stuff like cars and cell phones which proves that we are inferior to animals like deer and worms who can live without that junk quite well..
well, in my opinion, life is life. whether you kill a dog or you kill my neighbor, its the same. Animals feel, think, have the capacity to suffer and feel pain, and clearly have the capacity for language. It would take a nutjob to deny that. And some animals, like chimpanzees have even learned sign language and passed it on to their young. And don't forget that people are animals too. it is clear that people "run the world" build cities, effect the environment, etc. but still. I think that saying that people are superior to other animals is just a sad excuse for very sadistic people to perform unnecessary "medical experiments" there are other types of experiments that don't involve the death of many. The animals of the world exist for their own reasons. They were not made for humans any more than black people were made for white, or women created for men. I, personally believe in evolution, and I feel that everything that we are capable of: language, emotion, etc. originated from them. we inherited it from them. I really don't care what you believe, as long as you dont use your beliefs as an excuse for the exploitation of innocent animals.
Our intelligence level is superior to animals. We have laws; animals have pecking order. We can build things and actually carry on conversations whereas animals make noises as warnings or other simple emotions but do not converse. Our bodies are just as complex and how it functions is basically the same. I would definitely say that the human race is superior to animals. We've actually made them/bred them to be how we want (many newer breeds of dogs). On occasion you may find a bird with the IQ of a 5-year-old or a chimp that understands sign language, but intellectually we have advanced.
Also bugs fall under the category of animals or in Kingdom Animalia if you'd rather. Hmm...
True we are damaging the earth. Let's hope we can fix what we've done...
The shortest way to describe this is Natural Selection.Look it up if you don't higher than a 6th grade education. now the long one:
in what way? overall I would say we humans are superior considering we are sentient and developed civilization.With the assisstance of our technology we can do almost everything an animal can do only better.I believe our lives are more important than their's.except for a few very intelligent animals,most animals are virtually robots.They were put on this earth for a purpose,and they will do everything in their power to fulfill this purpose.They are unconcerned with themselves .Some do have emotions,however the vast majority's levels of emotion and thought compared to ours is like comparing a firecracker and an atom bomb.Ultimately it isn't really a question of superiority.I'm assuming you asked this in response to the animal rights idiots around here.To simplify it,they are not doing their part in nature.Humans are nothing but very very very advanced monkeys.We are supposed to protect and take care of our own kind and ensure we survive.The PETA morons are not doing that.They are placing animals above themselves and others.In the less "civilized" world of animals,they would be considered useless to the herd/group and become abandoned and most likely die shortly after. they are obstacles in the circle of life. and a last comment:If killing a few hundred lab animals for tests can save the lives of millions of people Then I'm totally fine with that.
We may have the mental advantage over animals but I don't know if we're "better." Humans kill each other for absolutely no reason. We are knowingly doing things that will destroy our planet. Animals only do what what they need to do to survive, which keeps nature in balance.
How could anyone honestly think we are superior to the "lower" animals? We are considered by many scientists to be the most destructive animal on the planet, and have caused many other species to become extinct by our actions, the latest being the Yangtze river dolphin.
We try to change our environment to suit us instead of living with it. a perfect example is the many hundreds of people that have moved to desert areas like Arizona and New Mexico because of breathing problems associated with some plants / pollens in their previous areas. What is the first thing they do? Plant various species of plants from the area they just moved from! That's not superior behavior, that's stupid.
Humans superior? To what I might ask, rocks possibly but most assuredly not other animals.
Well looks to me loike I'm a nutjob lol. My dog is like my kid. I love spending money on him and having fun with him. He is my best friend. I think animals should have equal rights. Animals that are toilet trained should be alowed in public places like libraries and grocery stores. You should also be abole to drive with your dog in the carpool lane.
Animals have feelings you know.they get happy,sad,depressed,excited, stressed , scared bored,suprised..jus like we do.
FYI animals were here first so a little R.E.S.P.E.C.T would be nice Man has already done enough to harm the poor animals and and environment.
