Recently some breakthrough research has uncovered the truth that non-human animals are conscious, feeling, socially structured beings.

Empirical scientific evidence has broken the chokehold of centuries of Industrialists and Christian Dominionists dogmatic claims that animals were numb and unfeeling creatures, never to b compared to humans in any way.

Here we explore what all of this means to religion.
