So far the best theory I have ever heard on discerning levels of consciousness goes something like this;
Plants (and probably insects) are alive. They have a body, but do not experience pain or pleasure. They have no soul.
Animals (like cats and dogs) have a body and can experience pain or pleasure because they have a soul. A soul is not a physical, Neither is pain. A soul is what allows us to experience non-physical things. Much of the brain used as an interface between the soul and the body.
People have a body soul and spirit. Spirit what is what allows us to make moral determinations and live a just life. We dont seek out and arrest cats and dogs for fighting with each other or put fish in jail for eating other fish because we understand that it would be absurd to do so.
sorry i my have edited my above post before you posted. not sure.
just interest to know you thoughts. its not a common for people to attempt to explain these thing. So I appreciate it.
