    Egyptians were NOT Christians. Actually they were Christian persecuters. So if THEY believed that dogs, birds, gold, a staff, and jewelry were "needed" for the afterlife it certainly doesn't reflect anything about what Christians believe. I don't see how that could serve as "proof" of anything in this discussion.

    Even if we use the evolution theory of man, it proves that man is the superior being on the face of the planet. Why? Because even in the evolution theory man evolved from simian to upright human. Dogs have evolved very little if any. How can that be considered an "equal" even IF we don't factor in the God factor?

    Take that one more step: If monkeys share the majority of our DNA, have vocal chords, and a brain similar in size......how come they've never uttered a word? How come if WE evolved from THEM, WE walk upright, talk, think, and take care of ourselves totally different?

    I don't see how anyone can say rationally that animals are "equals". :confused:

    i never said that animals are our equals, but that we are animals. if they were equals it would be a level'd playing field but it is not that way, we rule. much like i've said before "survival of the fittest".

    the point of this topic was one do animals have a soul and two do they go to heaven. i posted info from the bible stating even animals have souls, i just think that if an animal has a soul then it must go to heaven as well. also the point about egyptians is that even races prechristianity believed in after life for animals, so i don't think its crazy to think so.
