Have you formed an opinion on how animal minds exist? Do you have any other authority than woo to rule them out? There's a lot of research going on right now about both animals and humans. And I'm certainly not the one claiming that one or the other doesn't have free will. But it doesn't take some sky daddy to take that for a reality. It also doesn't take some explanation from wonderland. Just evolution and the parts we just now start to understand.
I could write pages about cognitive science, but I have my suspicions that it would be a wasted effort with someone who obviously is in desperate need of some higher authority calling the shots in his life. If you're at all interested, do a google or look up some youtube vids.
Great point. Perhaps there is a god of every species which have raised up each species to consciousness. So humbling.
