Animals have a specific purpose to serve and they serve it. Animals were not designed to do anything more than what they do every day of the time they have on the planet. An animal has no interest in recording a history of the world as it knows it. Animals do not keep family albums or have social security numbers. Animals do not pay taxes or have birthday parties with candles and a cake. Animals
do not work for money or buy things at the store.
An animal’s life only has meaning in relationship to the one creation on earth that seeks to understand why? You and I are the only living being interested in meaning. We are the askers of questions. We lose our way without purpose. We seek to change the world around us in ways animals simply are not programmed to
.
Why can’t humanity be satisfied with just eating, drinking, sleeping, waking, reproducing and dying. We want to live forever. What is forever and why do we contemplate it?
For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith. For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness; Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed it unto them. For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse: Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened. Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools, And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things.
(Rom 1:17-23)
