Sentient beings

Humans have the ability to resist their lower nature, and this ability is ultimately what separates us from animals which do not have the capacity of conscientiousness.

However, animals do not act so depraved by way of their lower nature and therefore do not require the perpetual battle between which the natural man and the spiritual man must engage in daily.

This ultimately balances out,  making animal and man equal. I think I'll have another go at vegetarianism.
