Questions Concerning Animals
-
Why do animals, which are a lower evolution, have an instinct which seems so much more reliable than the
reason of human beings? »

-
Do animals live after death? »
-

Also what becomes of the animal soul, and does the human love and care it has received help it on its upward journey? »
-
