No we are not!
The Bible says that He made us in His image......
Read your Bible please, Genesis 1:27 says, "so God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them"
Animals are made of Body & Spirit.
Humans are made of Body, Spirit & Soul!
Animals dont need the Gospel.....we humans DO!
Animals have no sin & are not judged....we humans DO!
Jesus didn't die on the cross for the animals but for US...HUMANS!

Hmmm, we have the same genetics, bone structure, organs, mammary glands, vaginal birth and every other characteristic of a mammal., I breast fed, animals that are mammals also breast feed. I gave birth with out meds or intervention and I truly felt connected to every woman of every species of mammal.
If someone says that we are not animals they are deluded and ignorant.
It is this sick separation from the natural world which is causing such global devastation that will self fulfill the Christian ideology of Armageddon.
For the person who said we can't be animals because of our frontal lobe: Every species of animal has something to distinguish it, having a unique trait does not mean you are not an animal.
My Dogs and horses understand what I ask of them, It is humans who choose to not understand other species of animals, and that hardly makes them more intelligent. P.S. Dolphins and whales also have enlarged frontal lobes, but the person who said that probably thinks that dolphins and whales are fish.

We used to be animals, but some of us today, have become so bad and wicked and full of hatred for our brother humans, that the friar is right, we are not fit to be animals...
It is only humans who hurt, kill and maim other humans, animals also do not behave like this.

We are not animals. Animals operate in accordance with natural dictates. We operate using chaos as a dictate.
The Friar must be a member of PETA, and he did not wish to insult the animals.
(But yes, we are 100% animals. Just overly complicated ones, with way too many useless features in our operating system so we're more prone to crash and malfunction big time...)

In a biological, physiological sense, we are animals. We have to breathe, eat, sleep, etc. in order to survive, just as any animal. We have the same organs that regulate our bodies and perform necessary biological actions as most other animals. However, in cognitive functioning, we are not animals. Our frontal lobes are often non-existent in other animals. The frontal cortex controls more advanced cognitive functioning, such as emotions, etc.

Of course we are.
If you need evidence, show up at a fundie-run church and tell everyone that evolution is real.
Step back and watch the ensuing riot.
