I have many deep human relationships and the warmest, most open, and least angry people that I know also love animals.
I never forget that my dogs are dogs but I also never forget that we humans are also animals. It would be a better world if more people accepted this fact.
I was not angry, nor do I accept that human behaviour should be equated with animal behaviour, for it is clearly not a fact, except in your world, take for example your dogs propensity for language, amazing is it not, or their treatise on the latest developments of Najdorf Sicilian , their ability to reason on the posts in this forum, its truly astounding, no doubt they are reflecting on the past and planning for the future as we speak, not to mention their artistic achievements also worthy of note, do they also play musical instruments, read poetry an prose, yep just like humans, maybe i can play them at blitz, just get them to click the little icon at the top right hand corner, that's if its not against their religion nor their sense of ethics!
