Question

Do you believe that animals have souls?

Answer 1

UM i dont think animals have souls.  Only humans have souls.  Animals cant choose to be moral or immoral its all innate instinct.  Humans are the only creatures with the ability to choose and uplift their soul or corrupt it.  There is no feeling liken to a bird- u can never feel what its like to be a bird. birds are just birds and can only do birdy things.  they dont have souls, free will, or the ability to do anything other than wat their bird instinct tells them to do

Answer 2

Do you believe that humans have souls?

Humans are animals (primates, mammals, vertebrates...)

I hope that answers your question.

Answer 3

Yes, I totally believe that animals have souls just like human beings. They basically need the same things as human beings. They need a lot of love and caring just like human beings. They have feelings and will give love back. I'm waiting to see my cat Boy in heaven and he definitely had a soul.

Answer 8

Answer 9

Answer 10

what exactly is a soul?

do all humans have a soul, even serial killers? if so i think animals might...

I dont know its hard as you really cant describe what a soul is, or see it, and its not a material item so its hard to know

Answer 11

I'm not a believer in "souls" but all living things have spirits.  I think when people ask if animals have souls most Christians will say "no, only humans have souls".  Humans are animals so how does that make sense?  Christians relate souls to heaven and h**l.  I don't believe in heaven or h**l but do believe that our spirits live on after we die.  I believe that all living things, animals, plants, everything has a spirit.  Everyone has their own beliefs and opinions though.

Answer 12

I sure do.  I don't know about ants & spiders & things like that but I do believe that pets go to heaven.  It makes it a lot easier to explain to a child that his pet died & where he went.

I know that one day we all will go to heaven but we have to experience EVERYTHING before we do.  That is why we are reincarnated.  Each life time is one step closer to God.

Answer 14

100% sure they do if not they all would act the same

Answer 15

I think we need to start by showing that humans do.  Not to be rude, but that's still a matter of faith rather than fact.
