If "God" ( as Christains say) created everything, then why can't man (as an animal himself) breed with other animals?

Yes, Man IS just another animal. Either that or he's a plant. that's the only two options.

MEN are created equal, not all creatures. If you remember, God gave Adam "dominion" over all the Earth. If ALL creatures were equal, why would God do such a thing? Also, ever hear of bestiality? God says in the book of Leviticus that it's a sin for a man or woman to lie with an animal (yuck!!!!!!!!!), so why would you even be concerned about such a thing?

Man is not 'just another animal' and the Bible does not say man was created equal to the animals:
Gen 1:26 (NIV):
Then God said, "Let us make man in our image, in our likeness, and let them rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air, over the livestock, over all the earth, and over all the creatures that move along the ground."
So we are not equal to the animals, we are superior to them.

God did not create us equal with animals. He gave us dominion over them. He gave us certain gifts and capabilities that animals do not possess.
What does being able (or unable) to cross-breed have to do with God's ability to create everything?

We were certainly not "all created equal." Humans were, but God never put us on the same level with the animals. He actually forbids sexual relationships with animals.

Equal is not the same as geneticaly compatable
You can't get animals pregnant, and vice versa, it's like natures birth controll

1) your quoting the declaration of independence, not the bible.
2) It says "all MANKIND (that's humans) are created equal."
3) You're kidding me right?

Haven't you ever taken a biology class.
By the way...I thought it was the US founding fathers that said "all men were created equal." I don't remember God ever saying that.

Yeah... and if we're all created equal, then how do you account for Richard Simmons and PeeWee Herman?
