Are Humans just Animals?
from Fishing for Men with Mack · host biblife
Modern atheism is building on the foundation of Charles Darwin's "Origin of Species" to claim that humans are just animals. This is a very dangerous concept, because as soon as humans believe they are just animals, they start acting like animals. This episode explores the ethics of humans killing animals to eat. It also deals with a host of other questions: Are humans 99% chimpanzee? Why do we call it "killing" when one animal kills another and not "murder"? What does God say about this? Are humans on top of the food-chain? As a rational person or even as a Christian, should I feel shame for killing a "sentient being" for food? Listen in to grapple with some of the key differences and responsibilities between animals and humans.
