Not make in the image of God. It mean there is no spirit in there. They got body & soul/mind only.

Doubt it... but you can teach a dog to read simple words like "sit" and so on, I read about it in last nights paper.
There's a local street person here who has taught his dog to bark the chorus to the Adams family theme tune...so maybe you could teach a dog to do the same with a hymn...but pray, first you'd need to scare the begeesus out of the monkey or dog by explaining hell etc and that might be difficult...I'm sure some determined persons might be able to achieve it?

The real question is... why WOULD you teach a dog or monkey to pray?

No. you can teach them to sit, shake, and go to the bathroom but they wouldn't know what praying means. You could probably get them to look like they were praying but not to actually do it.

Sure you can, but just like when humans pray they may as well be talking to a rock because it is fiction.

You can teach them tricks, to imitate humans however prayer requires mental faculties that animals don't possess.

A monkey yes, a dog no.... unless I was Cesar Millan.

They already pray in their way.

i suppose so...since nothing is impossible to do nowadays....
maybe you can make the animal in the right prayer position..but i doubt about the mindset!
