And we’re not in disagreement there, my grounds for originally giving the example was only in the fact that consciousness is a prerequisite for spirituality to occur. I was really only saying that it is unique to humans and allows for abstract thought on the human condition.

I respect your contention but I think we’re going in circles over semantics now.






> consciousness is a prerequisite for spirituality to occur
