Hello Addi,

I hope you don't mind but while checking out some other things I came across your post concerning animals and your question to "religous guys" from back on June 21st.

I realize you were being serious as were the responses so here is a specific scriptual reference that indicates as far as our physical beings we all become dust and are no better than beasts in that regard, but there is a distinction in what transpires with the spirit.

Ecclesiastes 3
vs 19 For that which befalleth the sons of men befalleth beasts; even one thing befalleth them: as the one dieth, so dieth the other; yea, they have all one breath; so that a man hath no pereeminence above a beast; for all is vanity.
vs 20 All go unto one place; all are of the dust, and all turn to dust again.
vs 21 Who knoweth the spirit of man that goeth upward, and the spirit of the beast that goeth downward to the earth?

Following this however there is more to occur...

Hebrews 9:27 And it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment

There is much in the bible to tell us of what God has planned for us.

Checking out your profile info you made mention of wealth a few times. May I invite you to check out the thread "Getting Rich With the Bible"

One of the unique things in Christianity and unlike other religions God actually comes seeking you.

May God richly bless you Addi,
John
