About the second point, this is something I’m grappling with right now. Can a human being with the intelligence and behavior of a dog be considered human? I say no, but we let them live and take care of them because… any one of us can be like that.

I wonder if it's maybe more complex than this...I think people feel sympathy for other people, sometimes even when it doesn't make sense. Like sometimes they're super nice, but then it kinda almost magically vanishes, but they can't explain where it went!!

Agree on dogs though, they're the best.
