Have you seen through its eyes ?
Just because it has the label animal attached to it does not mean its consciousness goes on , in whatever form or way that it might.
Your ASSUMING that death is final , I just don't see what evidence your basing this assumption on.
In my opinion people believe in the soul based on their experience of it , ie. having left their body.Thats what my belief in it is based on.
You are assuming that your physical brain is the be all and end all.
Open your mind to the possibilities of other forms of existence beyond the physical.
If we can exist in a physical sense , then surely we can exist in other forms.
If this strand of existence is possible then why not others ?
IMHO the fact we exist at all proves anythings possible , we have already made the giant leap from nothing to something.
Based on scientific discussions and articles that I read online and in journals throughout the years. I believe that there could be other dimensions, or even other universes. A facet of existence that's beyond our own universe or 'world'. Yet, I can't imagine why humans on one planet would die and then somehow magically be transported to a different place. Our universe, as far as we know, is based on a set of laws. These laws cannot be broken in our universe, as far as we know. Therefore, we can't die and then have something fly out of our bodies on to another world.
It's been established in science that a person is made up of chemical impulses, atoms, etc. But these chemical impulses, atoms, etc.. are obviously not 'human' on their own. Otherwise, everything around us would be 'human'.
The "evidence" that death is final. Is all around us when living things die.
