    All subjective. How do you define a soul?
    What gives a human a soul and not an animal?


    Trolls will be trolls.

    Genesis 1:

    24 And God said, “Let the land produce living creatures according to their kinds: the livestock, the creatures that move along the ground, and the wild animals, each according to its kind.” And it was so. 25 God made the wild animals according to their kinds, the livestock according to their kinds, and all the creatures that move along the ground according to their kinds. And God saw that it was good.
    26 Then God said, “Let us make mankind in our image, in our likeness, so that they may rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky, over the livestock and all the wild animals,[a] and over all the creatures that move along the ground.”

    27 So God created mankind in his own image,
    in the image of God he created them;
    male and female he created them.

    28 God blessed them and said to them, “Be fruitful and increase in number; fill the earth and subdue it. Rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky and over every living creature that moves on the ground.”
    29 Then God said, “I give you every seed-bearing plant on the face of the whole earth and every tree that has fruit with seed in it. They will be yours for food. 30 And to all the beasts of the earth and all the birds in the sky and all the creatures that move along the ground—everything that has the breath of life in it—I give every green plant for food.” And it was so.

    Only applies to people who believe on god....
    Like I said, subjective.

    Dominionism and Anthropocentrism are not my cup of tea....

    Side note: the original bible never once mentioned Hell.

    I'm a little surprised that I'm the first one to mention this, but aren't there several peer reviewed scientific studies showing that rattlesnake round-ups are actually producing more dangerous snakes? Basically, IIRC, the louder the rattle, the more likely to be found by "hunters" and then they are basically pressuring a species into evolving into a quiet or even silent rattlesnake because they are the ones left to breed.

    I'd rather be warned, and loudly, to stay away from a snake that doesn't really want to bite me as much as I don't really want to get bitten, then accidentally sneak up on one who can't warn me away.

    I have hunted western diamond back, as far as wild game goes, it is one of my favorite. That being said I believe that they should be protected by fish and game dept. with regulated seasons and catch records to protect the natural populations.
    I hate these round ups that have been known to destroy populations around the areas where the roundups take place.
