So Atheist if you could be any animal you wanted to be. What would you be?

Since being human has no advantage over an animal since we all just die and go into a state on non existence. What animal would you like to be? Since we will all go into a state of non existence nothing you do, accomplish, or achieve means anything. In fact you will not even remember even being alive. Since nothing we do really matters because we're not going to remember it anyways an being human has no at vantage over a slug in the front lawn. What animal would you like to be?

2Co 4:16-18 For which cause we faint not; but though our outward man perish, yet the inward man is renewed day by day. (17) For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory; (18) While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal.

    Actually you are wrong about the value of memory, it may not be "eternal" but is is significant, I know that I always try to live my life in such a way that even the memory of my life is a blessing to my family and friends. Through memory I can express my love for them beyond even my own death. You are a Christian and you don't know this?

    As for another species? I cannot imagine being anything else really, because there are literally thousands of things that make being a human one of the best things to be just in terms of quality of life. It doesn't matter whether or not we cease to exist, it is always the kind of life we get to live that makes it a joy or sorrow.

    Lol being human does help TV computers and stuff like that and if I could be a animal I would be a male lion because then you would be top of the food chain.

    you might ask the animals what kind of human they'd like to be, for all the sense you're making.

    Human life certainly has advantages over animals. If you doubt this, try to get on a plane to Hawaii dressed as a giant squirrel.

    Yeah, about that... I'm STILL going with the taxonomic kingdom the Creationist Linnaeus put us in centuries ago. So to answer your question, I wouldn't change to a different member species of Animalia.

    My cat because he's spoiled, must be nice.

    And to say nothing we do matters or makes a difference is BS. Go out in the world and do something useful.

    Dog. False assumption. Dog. False assumption. False assumption. False assumption. Dog.

    Rant paragraph...

    Response - Dog. This stuff means something, people and life, and living, and culture - it all has purpose. Dogs have lived alongside humans for ages, and have evolved accordingly. So have we. Dogs and humans were "made" for each other.

    /end rant response

    Source(s): Please note, I don't have any false assumptions or Bible quotes in anything I wrote.
  • i would be an owl, its my favourite animal, i prefer the night to the day (although some owls arent nocturnal), and the whole flying things really liberates you from the ground (although i wouldnt have the mental capacity to appreciate it)

    specifically, a barn owl, i love the colour scheme
