Message | How might we know whether or not they are self aware if they cannot send us an envoy to communicate with us? |

Message | Scientific studies. It IS scientific fact that animals, such as mammals, birds, fish, repitles, amphibians, and some bugs are COMPLETELY self aware. Just because they do not operate on our "wave length" does not mean they shoud be abused and taken advantage of. That sort of thinking leads to dangerous variations. |
