My dod is good at being a dog and rabbit is rabbit, haven't figured him out yet. I'm not sure as I am any better then they are but I do have the responsibility to care for them. At least they learned to get along fine together, I'm not sure about people.

The use of grammar. (More better?).
Seriously.
We are not better than animals, we are just further up the food chain. We have been for millions of years. That gives us certain benefits, like being able to eat them. A lion is not better than a gazelle, it just eats it. It doesn't wonder whether the gazelle has a right to life. We are the same. Ultimately, we just prey on animals further down the food chain.

We are better than the animals because we have eternal souls. When an animal dies, that's it, it's over for them. The do have rights. Any animal rights activist will tell you that.

The powerful bestow rights on the less powerful. Its up to us to decide if animals have rights. We decide for serial killers dont we?

We have the ability believe in God, a spiritual being, we bury our dead and honor them. This is the first meaning of a thinking person.

We have the ability to talk.
Animals just make sounds and do body motions

Only if they were able to understand their rights when the police read them to them.
