maybe animals, much like us , are aware that there are things to do beyond those things which are purely maintaining your life (things that are ingrained as instincts), like sleeping, eating, sex, etc. It may be that they are simply without the mental capacity to possibly conjure up what those things are. We as humans feel a strong desire for something beyond fulfilling our survival instincts. We have desire to understand things and create things. Maybe when people say that animals don't have a soul (whatever that is) it just means that they don't have those extra cravings beyond survival.Just as our physical body sends us signals that water and food and sex are needed maybe our spiritual body (hypothetical) gives us the cravings for everything else. Perhaps the spiritual body is what we call the personality. Anyone who has pets knows that they have personalities too. Ok, this evolved into more than a comparison between animals and humans (we are animals though).This is unorganized and I don't know exactly what I'm trying to say, but I have one last final thought. Are the major differences in humans, personality wise (what gets us off), proof of coexisting spiritual lives (the spiritual self being the personality of the person) or simply fluctuations in our genetic code. Think of it in this way, are we all ants instinctually marching (via genetic programing) that are simultaneously being influenced by an underlying spiritual "self". And lastly, would these personality deriven drives be our spirit body telling us it needs recognition and satisfaction so that it will not die just as our body will if it is not fed.

Oh yeah, I just got done watching Waking Life as was suggested on here. I highly recomend watching it also. It has definitely got my mind churning.

"Well, now time passed and now it seems
Everybody's having them dreams.
Everybody sees themselves walkin' around with no one else.
Half of the people can be part right all of the time,
Some of the people can be all right part of the time.
But all the people can't be all right all the time
I think Abraham Lincoln said that.
"I'll let you be in my dreams if I can be in yours,"
I said that."

- Bob Dylan

the meaning of life is whatever you want it to be

but the PURPOSE of life is to get stronger.
